怎样用英语向别人寻求帮助？

从朋友、亲戚、家人和同事那里寻求帮助是很常见的事。当你在寻求帮助时，礼貌很重要。可以使用这些短语来进行礼貌地求助。特别要注意你所使用的动词的形式。

Asking a Favor

Could / Would you do me a favor?——当某人想请你帮忙时，一般会用这种形式来提问，将其作为开头语。

Would you do me a favor? I need some help.

你能帮我个忙吗？我需要帮助。

Could you do me a favor? I'm late for work ...

你能帮我个忙吗？我上班迟到了······

使用Could you please + verb的形式，以在具体的情境中礼貌地寻求帮助。

Could you please take me to work?

能请你载我去上班吗？

Could you please lend me a hand?

使用Could you possibly + verb的一般形式，以在具体的情境中礼貌地寻求帮助。

能耽误你一些时间帮个忙吗？

Could you possibly work overtime today?

你今天能加班吗？

使用Could I ask / bother / trouble you + infinitive 这个“我能请/麻烦你+不定式”的句式——在正式场合中，可以使用动词的不定式形式（to do）来寻求帮助。

Could I ask you to help my brother?

能请你帮帮我哥哥吗？

Could I bother you to give a ride to work?

我能搭你的顺风车去上班吗？

Could I trouble you to open the door for me?

使用Would you mind + verb + ing 这个“你介意+动词-ing”的句式——在日常情境中，可以使用动名词形式来寻求帮助。

使用Would it be too much trouble for you + infinitive的句式——在非常正式的场合，可以使用这种不定式形式来寻求帮助。

使用May I + verb? 的句式——当你寻求帮助时，需要得到别人的许可，就可以使用动词一般式。

May I leave class early?

我能早点下课吗？

May we use your telephone?

我们能用用你的手机吗？

Granting a Favor

如果你想对向你求助的人表示“可以”，你可以使用这些短语来表示同意。

.

当然。

problem.

没问题。

3.I'd be happy to help you.

能帮到你我很高兴。

would be my pleasure.

我的荣幸。

5.I'd be glad to help out.

我很乐意帮助你。

当你同意帮助别人时，询问更多具体的信息是很常见的。例如，如果你的朋友请你帮助他完成一个项目，你可能会提出一些疑问，从而明白需要做什么。

Refusing a Favor

如果你不能帮助别人，需要拒绝的话，你可以用这些回答来拒绝别人的求助。

1.I'm afraid I can't.

恐怕我不行。

y, but I'm unable + infinitive.

抱歉，但我不能+不定式。

rtunately, I'm not able + infinitive.

很可惜，我不能+不定式。

ettably, I can't + verb

很遗憾，我能不能+动词。

拒绝别人不是一件趣事，但有时候却是必要的。通常，如果不能帮到别人，我们会提出另一个方案来帮助解决问题。
