接電話如何讓對方慢點兒說話？
One of the biggest problems is speed. Native speakers， especially business people， tend to speak very quickly on the telephone. Here are some practical tips to get native speakers of English to slow down！
主要的一個問題是語速。說母語的人，尤其是商務人士，打電話的時候說話語速都很快。下面是一些實用的小貼士可以讓母語是英語的人放慢說話的速度。
* Immediately ask the person to speak slowly.
* 直接請這個人慢點說。
* When taking note of a name or important information， repeat each piece of information as the person speaks.
* 記錄一個名字或者重要資訊的時候，打電話的人說一句你就重複一句。
This is an especially effective tool. By repeating each important piece of information or each number or letter as the spell or give you a telephone number you automatically slow the speaker down.
這是一個很有效的策略。通過重複每一個重要的資訊、每一個數字、每一個字母的時候都會讓說話人的語速自動放慢。
* Do not say you have understood if you have not. Ask the person to repeat until you have understood.
* 如果沒聽懂就別說你懂了。讓這個人重複一下直到你懂了。
Remember that the other person needs to make himself/herself understood and it is in his/her interest to make sure that you have understood. If you ask a person to explain more than twice they will usually slow down.
記住別人需要自己的話被聽懂。確保你能聽懂關係到他或她的利益。如果你請一個人解釋兩次以上，通常這個人會放慢語速。
* If the person does not slow down begin speaking your own language！
* 如果這個人還不放慢語速你就開始說你的母語。（這招狠！）
A sentence or two of another language spoken quickly will remind the person that they are fortunate because THEY do not need to speak a different language to communicate. Used carefully， this exercise in humbling the other speaker can be very effective. Just be sure to use it with colleagues and not with a boss ：-）！
快速的說一兩個句子會提醒打電話的人他們是很幸運的因為他們不用使用不同的語言來交流。不過用這招要小心點，這種方法羞辱別人很有效，所以要確定你這麼做的物件是你同事而不是你老闆！
等候與回電

7. We have a bad connection. 通訊效果不太好。8. I can’t catch what you are saying. 我聽不太清楚你說的話。
發生上面的情況，你可以請對方在重複一遍，你可以說：
1. Pardon?請再說一遍好嗎？
2. Excuse me? 請再說一遍？上列兩句都是對不起之意，但用在會話上，如果後面沒有接說明，並且語尾上揚，就是要對方再說一次。聽到這句話時就要知道對方要自己再說一遍。
3. I beg you pardon? 能請你再說一遍嗎？（此句有請求對方原諒及再說一次的意思）
4. Could you repeat that, please? 能請你再說一遍嗎？

4. extension two-one-one, please.
5. please connect me with extension two-one-one.
