I'm afraid I don't know much about fashion design and warm colors. Do you really think the way we dress influences people?

You must be kidding. The first impression you give is based on your appearance and clothes. Don't you ever notice the kind of shoes someone is wearing?

No, I hardly notice.

(She was surprised that he noticed the beautiful sunset.)

(She couldn't imagine that he had room in his mind to notice things like sunsets.)

Well then, that explains why your shoes are always the same. How old are the shoes you are wearing now??

These? I don't know, probably a year or so?

And I bet you've even wearing??them almost everyday. They look like it.

That's right, these shoes are comfortable and they were't expensive. I will bet yours were expensive.

OK, why don't we go shopping together this weekend? you can be my fashion adviser.

What's in it for me ?

If I like your advice, I will buy you another pair of shoes. How is that?? ?注意不是 a pair of?

OK, but they won't be cheap. You understand that, right?

Of course,but it will be worth it if you think my look will improve my image.

I guarantee it. With me as an adviser, you can't go wrong.

英國英語常用a bit表示稍微扣典、bai有點(diǎn)兒。作副詞慎玖,表達(dá)“程度”時(shí)贮尖,修飾動(dòng)詞、形容詞趁怔、副詞湿硝、介詞短語或比較級,a bit 不能直接+名詞润努。
