今天的這段對話,在討論鞋,
鞋子對女人來說永遠都不夠,你有多少雙鞋
來聽今天的講解:
A: How many pairs of shoes do you have?
你有多少雙鞋?
B: I have four pairs of summer shoes. I have one, two, three......I have five pairs of slippers.
我有四雙夏天穿的鞋子。我還有一、二、三 ,我一共有五雙拖鞋。
A: You have more pairs of slippers than you have shoes?
你的拖鞋比鞋還多。
B: Not exactly. The slippers are for winter. I have four pairs of shoes I wear in the summer but for the winter I have about three pairs of shoes: two pairs of boots and one pair of everyday shoes.
不。我的拖鞋是冬天才穿的。夏天我有四雙鞋,但冬天我只有三雙鞋:兩雙靴子和一雙普通的鞋子。
A: Oh, I see.
噢,是這樣啊。
B: No, wait. I must have more than three because I also have hiking shoes. I have two pairs of winter sports shoes. That means I have more than four pairs of winter shoes. I guess for every season, I wear more than four pairs of shoes. Even that doesn’t seem like enough.
不,不止三雙,我還有一雙郊游鞋,兩雙冬天穿的運動鞋。那意味著我冬天不止有四雙鞋。我想,每個季節(jié),我的鞋子都不止四雙,但即使那樣也不夠。
A: It is never enough for women. I have two pairs of dress shoes and two pairs of sport shoes.
鞋子對女人來說永遠都不夠。我有兩雙皮鞋和兩雙運動鞋。
B: You can never have too many. I like wearing different shoes every day. I think when I go home, I will wear different slippers every day, too. That should lift my spirits. Every day brings something new and I like a change of scene.
永遠都不夠。我喜歡每天穿不同的鞋。我覺得我回家的時候,每天也要穿不一樣的拖鞋。那可以讓我心情愉快。每天都有新氣象,我喜歡變化。
