您正在看的求职英语是:生病了怎样跟老板请假。

　　天气骤冷骤寒，白领们要是一不小心生了病，是扛着还是请假?一面是病来如山倒，一面是催着要工作的老板，真是两难呐!这期我们就来谈谈怎么请假吧!

　　Why don't you take this afternoon off?为什么不下午请假呢?我想请/休两天假，就可以说I want to take two days off.我有两天休假，则说I have two days off.

　　无限扩展：请病假：ask for a sick leave、请事假：ask for a casual leave请产假：ask for maternity leave，所以，I am on my maternity leave.就是“我在休产假”的意思。

　　I'm already behind schedule.我的工作还没完成，已落后时间表了。Behind schedule表示落后于时间表，比原计划慢。无限扩展：表示“按计划完成”就是on schedule，如We finished the project on schedule.我们按计划完成了工程项目。有时候老板们会定个最后期限，表示工作在此之前必须完成。表示这个“最后期限，时间限制”用deadline，如We had to work overtime last night in order to meet the deadline.我们昨晚为赶最后期限，不得不加班来完成工作。

　　He would think that I was putting him on.他会觉得我在骗他。

　　to put some body on愚弄、欺骗某人;如she put on an English accent.她假装带有英国口音。

　　无限扩展：You're putting me on!你在开我的玩笑。

　　I'll handle him.我会跟他解释的。To handle表示处理、应付、应对。如I can't handle children.我管不住孩子们。She handled a difficult argument skillfully.她巧妙地应付了一场艰难的辩论。

　　实战对话：

　　John：Do you have any tissue, Eveline? I've used all mine.伊芙琳，你有纸巾么?我的全用光了。

　　Eveline：Here. Are you all right?给，你还好吧?

　　John：Thanks. I'm all right. It's just my nose. It must be an allergy.... Do you have any aspirin? I have a terrible headache.谢谢，还好，都是我的鼻子，肯定是过敏了。你有没有阿斯匹林?我头疼死了。

　　Eveline：I don't have an aspirin. Perhaps you should go to a doctor.我没有，也许你得去看看医生了。

　　John：No, no. I'm okay. It's the weather. It was warm and sunny this morning, and now it's chilly and raining.不不，算了吧，我还好啦。都是这鬼天气闹的，早上还阳光灿烂挺暖和的，这会儿却下雨了，阴冷阴冷的。

　　Eveline：Really, John. I still think you should go to a doctor. You've been sneezing ever since you entered the office this morning. Why don't you take this afternoon off? If you don't want to see a doctor, at least you can go home and have a good rest.的确，约翰。我还是觉得你应该去看医生。今早你一到办公室，就打喷嚏到现在。干脆下午请假吧，如果你不想去看病，至少回家好好休息一下。 John：I can't. I'm already behind schedule. Besides, you know Mr.Thomas. He would think that I was putting him on.不行啊，我已经落后于时间表了。而且你知道托马斯先生的，他会认为我在愚弄他。

　　Eveline：You didn't do anything but sneeze this morning, and you can't do anything this afternoon like this. Gee! You've got a fever!今早你除了打喷嚏什么都没做，你这个样子下午也做不了什么。呀!你还发烧呢。

　　John：Do I ?... Oh, no.什么?噢噢，不是吧。

　　Eveline：Listen to me. You go home now.听我的!你现在回家。

　　John：What about Mr.Thomas?那托马斯先生怎么办?

　　Eveline：I'll handle him. Now go home. I'll call you afterwork.我会给他解释的，你快回家吧，下班后我给你打电话。

　　John：Thanks a lot, Eveline. Good-bye.那太谢谢你了伊芙琳，回见。
