H: Sure. What color do you prefer?
B: Could you give me any suggestion?
H: Do you like red? But not too red.
B: No. thanks. not for a woman of my age.
H: How ab out light yellow?
B: Nope. It looks, to be honest, strange on me.

H: About 3 hours.
B: So long a time!
H: But you will look much younger after 3 hours.
B: OK. My hair is getting dry and the ends split a lot recently.

1.for 弱读为/fə/，与后后的a连读，中间加辅助音/r/，读作/fə rə/。
2.light 的/t/与yellow 的/j/连读为/tʃ/，light yellow 读作/tʃ eləu/。
3.插入语位于句中不重读。
4.up to you 是指“你决定”。
