场景对话示例

朋友间互相推荐

A: Hey, what are you reading these days? You seem really into it. B: Oh, I'm just re-reading The Three-Body Problem. It's one of those books I can pick up anytime. A: Oh, I've been meaning to read that! Is it as good as everyone says? B: Absolutely! It's a real page-turner. The plot is incredibly smart and mind-blowing. I guarantee you won't be able to put it down. A: That sounds perfect. I need a good sci-fi book. I'll add it to my list. Thanks for the recommendation!

进阶技巧

1. 使用夸张和生动的语言: 口语中，夸张一点更能表达情绪，比如不说 "It was good"，可以说 "It blew my mind!" (它让我震惊了！)。
2. 分享个人联系: 最好的推荐往往和你的个人经历有关。"This book reminded me of my trip to Japan..." (这本书让我想起了我去日本旅行的经历...)。
3. 学会“踩一捧一” (Learn to "put one down to lift the other up"): 在比较时，可以更委婉，比如不说 "Book A is boring"，而是说 "Book A is a bit slow, but if you're looking
