J: can you help me pick out some fabric for a suit? I'm going to get one made for a friend's wedding.

R: sure. What kind of material do you want for the suit to be made from?

J: it depends on the price, but I was thinking of getting a wool/cashmere blend.

R: that will probably be quite expensive, but the more you pay for the fabric, the longer it'll last and the better it'll look. What color do you want the suit to be?

J: I was thinking of a brown pin-striped suit.

R: brown, huh? Isn't that a bit dull?

J: haven't you heard? Brown is the new black.

R: why don't you just get black? Black suits are always fashionable and can be worn for anything—a funeral, a wedding, a job interview—anything!

J: that may be true, but black is so boring. Anyway, I already have three black suits. I might as well get a suit that stands out from the rest.

R: here are two different shades of brown. Which one do you prefer?

J: I like the one on the left, but I don't like the pattern on it. It's too much. I want a pattern that's a bit subtler.

R: how about this one?

J: I think that will do. Let's go talk to the tailor about getting it made.

R: ok, let's go.

你能幫我挑塊布料做套裝嗎?我要做身衣服去參加一個(gè)朋友的婚禮。

當(dāng)然可以。你想要什么料子的?

這取決于價(jià)格，但是我希望是羊毛和羊絨混紡的。

那可會(huì)非常貴，但是你用的料子越貴，衣服就越經(jīng)穿，而且還非常漂亮。你想做什么顏色的?

我正在考慮棕色上紋有細(xì)線紋的。

棕色的，啊?會(huì)不會(huì)有點(diǎn)太暗了?

你沒(méi)聽(tīng)說(shuō)過(guò)嗎?棕色是一種新興的黑色。

那你干嘛不做件黑的?黑色西服一直都很時(shí)尚，而且適用于任何場(chǎng)合—葬禮，婚禮，面試---什么場(chǎng)合都行!

是這樣沒(méi)錯(cuò)，但是黑色有點(diǎn)單調(diào)了。不管怎么說(shuō)，我已經(jīng)有三件黑西服了。我還是希望能跟其他人不一樣。

這兒有兩種暗紋的棕色布料。你比較喜歡哪一個(gè)?

我喜歡左邊那個(gè)，但是我不喜歡它上面的圖案。圖案太復(fù)雜了。我喜歡簡(jiǎn)單含蓄一點(diǎn)的。

那這個(gè)怎么樣?

這個(gè)還不錯(cuò)，咱們?nèi)フ也每p做吧。

好的，走吧。

Have you decided which material you would like the suit to be made from?

你想好了用什么面料做衣服了嗎?

Are you looking for a casual shirt or something formal?

你想要件休閑點(diǎn)的襯衫還是正式點(diǎn)的?

Which pattern do you prefer---the flowery one or the striped one?

你喜歡哪一個(gè)?條紋圖案還是花朵圖案?

They look lovely, but they’re not very practical.

這些看起來(lái)不錯(cuò)，但是不怎么實(shí)用。

I absolutely adore simple fashions. That skirt is not really my cup of tea.

我比較喜歡簡(jiǎn)約風(fēng)格的東西。那條裙子實(shí)在不合我的口味.
