實戰(zhàn)口語情景對話：Jeans 牛仔褲(2)

Todd: Before musicians like you said used to wear ripped jeans. Jeans with big holes or rips in them.

托德：你之前說過，以前的音樂人喜歡穿破洞牛仔褲。就是那種有破洞的牛仔褲。

Mariel: Oh, yeah, that was in the 80's.

瑪麗埃爾：對，那是上世紀80年代的事了。

Todd: OK, maybe that was my generation. So that's not popular anymore?

托德：那可能是我的年代。那現(xiàn)在破洞牛仔褲不再流行了嗎?

Mariel: Some people like to wear ripped jeans, yeah, still, but mainly the rips are quite neat, so they're usually ripped a little bit around the pockets or around the cuffs, you know the bottoms, Yeah

瑪麗埃爾：現(xiàn)在也還有人喜歡穿破洞牛仔褲，不過大部分破洞很整齊，一般破洞的位置在褲兜和褲腳附近。

Todd: OK, yeah. That sounds like designer jeans. Maybe then like.... are they specifically made just for that style?

托德：好。聽起來像設(shè)計師品牌的牛仔褲。也許……那是刻意做出這種樣式的嗎?

Mariel: Well, yeah. Actually, quite often the jeans you buy in the store are already ripped or already worn so they look like they're old but they are brand new.

瑪麗埃爾：對。實際上，你在商場里買的破洞牛仔褲都會做舊，看起來像舊的，但其實是新的。

Todd: But designer jeans can be really expensive, right?

托德：但是設(shè)計師品牌的牛仔褲非常貴，對吧?

Mariel: Oh, they can be very expensive but people are willing to pay the money because they're designer jeans. They're cool.

瑪麗埃爾：是很貴，但是人們愿意花錢買，因為那些是設(shè)計師品牌的牛仔褲，非?？帷?/p>

Todd: Well, how much do you pay for jeans?

托德：你一般會花多少錢買牛仔褲?

Mariel: I can pay up to 120 Euros for jeans.

瑪麗埃爾：我最多可以花120歐元買牛仔褲。

Todd: A hundred and twenty Euros.

托德：120歐元。

Mariel: Yeah.

瑪麗埃爾：對。

Todd: That's a lot of money.

托德：那是一大筆錢啊。

Mariel: It's a lot of money, yeah, especially because I'm a student but I'm willing to put the money into it if the jeans fit very well.

瑪麗埃爾：的確是很多錢，尤其我還是個學生，不過如果合身的話，我愿意在牛仔褲上花錢。

Todd: Just, lastly about jeans, these days there's many different colors. You have the light blue jeans, or the darker blue jeans. Which colors do you like to wear?

托德：最后一個有關(guān)牛仔褲的問題，最近的牛仔褲有很多顏色。有淺藍色牛仔褲，深藍色牛仔褲。你喜歡穿哪種顏色的牛仔褲?

Mariel: That depends on the time of the year actually. In the summer I like to wear light blue jeans and then in the winter I sometimes wear black jeans or really dark blue jeans.

瑪麗埃爾：這要取決于時節(jié)。夏天我喜歡穿淺藍色牛仔褲，冬天我會穿黑色或深藍色牛仔褲。

Todd: Oh, that's interesting. So you change the color by season?

托德：哦，有意思。你是根據(jù)季節(jié)更換顏色嗎?

Mariel: Yeah, generally I think I wear more darker clothes in the winter.

瑪麗埃爾：對，我冬天一般會穿深色。

Todd: Well, just off hand, how many jeans do you think you have? How many pairs do you have at home?

托德：問個剛想到的問題，你有多少條牛仔褲?你家里有多少條牛仔褲?

Mariel: I think I have about eight or nine pairs.

瑪麗埃爾：我想我大概有八九條牛仔褲。

Todd: That's a lot.

托德：那很多了。

Mariel: That's a lot but actually, I use only two pairs of them.

瑪麗埃爾：是挺多的，不過我一般只穿其中的兩條。

Todd: Your favorites?

托德：那兩條是你的最愛?

Mariel: Yeah, my favorite jeans. And they're baggy.

瑪麗埃爾：對，我最喜歡的牛仔褲。是寬松牛仔褲。

Todd: OK, thanks Mariel.

托德：好，謝謝你，瑪麗埃爾。

Mariel: You're welcome. My pleasure.

瑪麗埃爾：不客氣。我很榮幸。
