这一课学什么

  • 描述具体问题
  • 解释修改理由
  • 先确认再执行反馈

示范:指出具体位置

Rin: Could you look at my two presentation slides? Omar: Sure. The first slide is clear, and the large heading helps me find the topic quickly. On the second slide, the gray text is difficult for me to read against the white background. Could we try a darker color for those three lines?

琳:你能看看我的两页演示文稿吗?奥马尔:当然。第一页很清楚,大标题让我很快找到主题。第二页的灰色文字放在白色背景上,我读起来有困难。能试着把那三行换深一点的颜色吗?

回应:确认改动范围

Rin: Do you mean all the text on the slide, or only the short notes under the picture? Omar: Only the notes under the picture. The heading already works well. Rin: I can change those now. Would you also like the picture to be larger? Omar: No, its current size is fine.

琳:你是指这页的所有文字,还是图片下面的短注释?奥马尔:只有图片下面的注释。标题已经很好了。琳:我现在就能改。你还希望图片更大吗?奥马尔:不用,现在的大小可以。

复核:让改进可观察

Rin: Here is the new version. Is the text easier to read now? Omar: Yes, I can read it without moving closer to the screen. Thanks for making that change. Rin: Thanks for explaining the problem clearly. Saying where the difficulty was helped me fix one thing instead of redesigning everything.

琳:这是新版本。现在文字更好读了吗?奥马尔:是的,不靠近屏幕也能看清。谢谢你修改。琳:谢谢你把问题解释清楚。指出困难在哪里,让我只需修一个地方,而不用重新设计全部内容。

difficult for me to…

描述自己的使用困难,比直接给出笼统否定更容易让人定位问题。

The notes are difficult for me to read.

这些注释我读起来有困难。

Could we try…?

将建议变成可尝试的改动,而非把个人偏好宣布为唯一答案。

Could we try a darker color?

我们能试试更深的颜色吗?
