Dressing up穿衣打扮
原文:
Linda and Peter are talking about the colors of clothes.
A: Morning, Peter. Nice suit! A new one?
B: Oh, yes. My wife bought it for me yesterday. Hmm, you look nice in that yellow dress. Yellow suits[1] you really well.
A: Maybe. Several people have suggested that I get more yellow clothes.They say the color suits me because I have a fair complexion[2].
B: That's right. You know what, pink, green and black could also be good for you[3]. Actually[4], I think that all colors are okay for a person with your complexion. It's just that[5] different colors can give people different impressions. For example, black could make you look mature[6], while pink could make you look young and energetic.
A: Thank you for the compliments.[7] It sounds like[8] you're a clothing expert.
B: Well, compared with[9] my wife, I'm just a beginner.

穿衣打扮
琳达和彼得正在谈论衣服的颜色。
A: 早上好,彼得。西服不错!新买的?
B: 噢,是啊。我爱人昨天给我买的。嗯,你穿这件黄色的连衣裙很漂亮。黄色真的很适合你。
A: 可能吧。有几个人都建议过我多买些黄色的衣服。他们说这颜色适合我,因为我皮肤白。
B: 没错。你知道吗,粉色、绿色和黑色也会适合你的。实际上,我觉得对你这种肤色的人来说,什么颜色都可以。只不过不同的颜色会给人不同的印象。比方说,黑色让你显成熟,而粉色让你显得年轻又有活力。
A: 谢谢你的夸奖。你听起来像个服装专家。
B: 嗯,和我老婆比起来,我还只是个初学者。
