A：我们来玩个小游戏，怎么样？我形容一个人的长相你来猜是谁。
A: Let’s play a little game. I’ll describe someone and you try and guess who it is.

B：好的。我现在正无聊呢。
B: OK. I’m really bored at the moment!

A：这个人是瘦高个儿，有一双蓝色的眼睛和一头棕色的卷发。
A: OK, This man is tall and slim. He’s got blue eyes and curly brown hair.

B：他有胡须吗？
B: Does he have moustache or a beard?

A：问得好。他的嘴上有胡须，不过没有络腮胡。
A: Good question. Yes, he has a moustache, but no beard.

B：好像是迈克，对吗？
B: Sounds like Mike. Is it?

A：对。你来描述一个人，我们俩都知道的。
A: Yes, it is. You describe someone we both know.

B：好吧。她不高，很胖。她长着一头金色的头发，但我不知道她眼睛的颜色。
B: Right. She’s not very tall and she’s quite plump. She’s got blonde hair, but I don’t know what colour her eyes are.

A：她漂亮吗？我好像不认识这样一个人。
A: Is she attractive? I don’t think I know anyone like that.

B：啊，我不认为她很漂亮，不过我肯定你不会同意我的看法。
B: Well, I don’t find her attractive, but I’m sure you would disagree.

A：我喜欢苗条的女孩，指所以我怀疑自己会认为一个胖乎乎的女孩迷人。你得告诉我更多的情况。
A: I like slim girls, so I doubt I would find a plump girl attractive. You’ll have to give me some more information.

B：她的脚很小，穿着一双过时的鞋子。实际上，她的衣服也过时了。
B: She’s got tiny feet and wears really unfashionable shoes. In fact, she wears unfashionable clothes too.

A：听起来好像我不认识这个人。我放弃了。告诉我她是谁。
A: This doesn’t sound like anyone I know. I give up. Tell me who she is.

B：就是你的妈妈。
B: She’s your mother!

A：真不好意思，我竟然没有认出我自己的妈妈！你觉得外貌对一个人有多重要？
A: How embarrassing! I don’t even recognise a description of my own mother! How important do you think appearance is?

B：很不幸，一个人的外貌比性格更重要。广告上说我们的外貌必须要能吸引人。我觉得这种看法是错误的，但现在的世界就是这样。
B: I think that unfortunately it’s more important than a person’s character. Advertising and stuff tells us that we have to be attractive. I think it’s wrong, but that’s the way the world is now.

A：我认为你是对的。我选择我的女友就是因为她的性格好。
A: I’m afraid you’re right. I chose my girlfriend because she has a wonderful personality.

B：当然，如果光看外貌，你肯定不选她！喂，我是开玩笑的，别打我。
B: Well, you certainly didn’t choose her because of her looks! Hey, I was joking! Don’t hit me!
