英語播客初級版 第243期(外教講解):買化妝品

A: I’m hungry, let’s go grab a bite to eat.
B: Yeah me too. Oh! Can we stop at the shop really fast? I lost my makeup bag at the airport and I want to pick up a few things.
A: Will you take long?
B: No! Five minutes I promise!
A: Come on! We have been here for almost an hour! I thought you said you were only going to get a few things! How long does it take you to pick out a lipstick and some nail polish!
B: Are you crazy? You have no idea what you are talking about! Just for my eyes I have to get eye-liner, an eyelash curler, eye shadow, an eyebrow pencil and mascara. Then I need to get foundation, liquid foundation.
A: Whoa whoa whoa! Are you nuts? How much is all this going to cost? I’m looking at the price at each one of these little things and it’s outrageous! This is basically a crayon!
B: What about you? You spend as much or more money on your razors, after shave, cologne and gel! Not to mention how much you spend on clothes and...
A: Fine! Get the stupid thirty dollar crayon!

A: 我餓了，我們簡單吃點東西。
B: 我也餓了，我們能快速停在商店嗎?我在機場弄丟了化妝包，我想買些東西。
A: 那要花很長時間嗎?
B: 不會， 我發(fā)誓5分鐘就夠了。
A: 快點，我們在這兒已經(jīng)快1個小時了，我記得你說過你只買幾樣東西。選一支口紅和一些指甲油怎么用這么長時間。
B: 你瘋了嗎?你不知道自己在說什么。僅化妝眼睛，我就得需要眼線(筆), 卷睫毛器，眼影和眉筆及睫毛膏。我還得打粉底，液體粉底。
A: 哇!你是木頭嗎?這些東西得花多少錢?我看了下這些東西的每樣報價，太不可思雅了。主這主要就是蠟筆。
B: 那你呢?你花了同樣或很多的錢用來買電動刮胡刀，刮臉后搽的潤膚水以及古龍水上面。更不用你花在買衣服和……的錢。
A: 好吧，買那個愚蠢的30,美元蠟筆吧。
