[析] I'm too busy? 与 I'd like to? 在意义上正好相反。所以要用转折连词。这里考查了对词义合乎逻辑的表达能力。所以要强调语言环境，更要强调在语言的基础上的词语辨析。

　　[误] - Where's Deter?

　　- Deter will come with us tonight but he isn't very sure yet?

　　[正] - Where's Deter?

　　- Deter may come with us tonight but he isn't very sure yet?

　　[析] 由于 but 所引出的句子可以看出 Deter 的来与不来是十分不确定的，所以应用 may 来表达一个不肯定的事件。

　　[误] - Hi， haven't seen you for ages! You look fine!

　　- Great? You look well too?

　　[正] - Hi， haven't seen you for ages! You look fine!

　　- Thanks? You look well too?

　　[析] 要注意的是 Great 在口语中多表示惊叹，而 Thanks 则表示感谢对方的称赞。　所以对情景谈话要有准确的判定，要根据情景，身临其境，上下对照，周密思考，弄清场合，注意英美人的风俗习惯，注重语义上的词语 辨析，并要进行大量的语言实践练习，扩大实际交际能力。
