情景对话 Dialogue
Fred: So, what did you have in mind today?
Patricia: I'm not sure exactly—I just know that I want
something different, a new hairstyle.
Fred: Ok, well, do you want to keep it long or go short?
Patricia: I've had my hair long for far too long—let's go
short.
Fred: Do you want to be able to wear your hair up at all?
Patricia: I'm not that bothered about wearing it up.
Fred: So, how about going chin length?
Patricia: Oh, I want to go shorter than that. I want a cut that
looks drastically different from the one I have now.
Fred: Ok, let me think. You've got really nice wavy hair. Do
you want to wear it straight or curly?
Patricia: I'm kind of sick of the curls—let's go with
straight.
Fred: How much time do you have to spend on doing your hair in
the morning?
Patricia: Not much—I need a low-maintenance cut.
Fred: That narrows things down a bit. You've got great cheek
bones that I'd like to show off… I think a pixie cut would look
great on you.
Patricia: You mean the really short cut, like the one Emma
Watson has?
Fred: That's it—short at the back and on the sides and a bit
longer on top.
Patricia: I love her hair!
Fred: You're not the only one who likes her new hairstyle. And
it certainly got her a lot of attention. Sounds like that might be
what you're after?
Patricia: Yes, you've hit the nail on the head. Do you think I
could pull off such a daring cut?
Fred: You definitely have the face for it. I think it would
really suit you.
Patricia: What if I don't like it?
Fred: Then you either get a wig—or learn to like it!
Patricia: Ok, well, it would be totally different from the cut
I currently have.
Fred: So, shall we go for it?
Patricia: It's now or never…
译文 Translation
弗雷德：你今天有什么想法吗？
帕特里夏：没有具体想法——我只知道想改变一下，换一个新发型。
弗雷德：好的，你想保持这么长还是剪短？
帕特里夏：我留长发时间太久了——剪短吧。
弗雷德：你还想扎头发吗？
帕特里夏：我不是很想扎头发。
弗雷德：那就到下巴那么长吧？
帕特里夏：哦，我想再短些。我想剪一个跟现在完全不一样的发型。
弗雷德：好的，让色泽
我想想。你的鬈发很漂亮。你想要直发还是鬈发？
帕特里夏：我有点讨厌鬈发了—防溺水心得
—弄直吧。
弗雷德：你早晨花多长时间打理头发？
帕特里夏：不是很长时间——我想要容易打理的发型。
弗雷德：这样选择范围就缩小了。你的颧骨很漂亮，应该露出来。我觉得精灵
短发很适合你。
帕特里夏：你是说很短的那种，像艾玛沃特森那种？
弗雷德：是的——后面和侧面稍短，前面长点。
帕特里夏：我喜欢那个发型！
弗雷德：不是只有你一个人喜欢她的新发型。这个发型使她受到很多关注。听
起来你也想要一个了？
帕特里夏：是的，你真是一语中的。你认为我适合这个大胆的发型吗？
弗雷德：你的脸型很适合。我觉得你弄这个发型会很好看。
帕特里夏：如果我不喜欢呢？
弗雷德：那你可以戴个假发——或者试着喜欢它！
帕特里夏：好的，这个发型相比我现在的有很大改变。
弗雷德：那我们就剪这个？
帕特里夏：这就剪。
