语言剖析

1. I really need to look sharp.
I really need to look sharp. 我需要看起来神清气爽。
Sharp本意是锋利的意思,在这里表示穿着精神的的意思Dan really looks sharp today. I think he has an important meeting.Dan今天看起来真是精神抖擞啊。我想他今天肯定是有课重要的会议。I always try to look sharp on Mondays.每周一我都试着让自己看起来神清气爽一点。

2. We have a broad selection of suits.
We have a broad selection of suits. 我们有很多西装款式可供选择
这句话的用法也非常棒!很多的,这里并没有用many,a lots of等俗套的表达,而是broad,一下子就把可供选择种类范围之广给表现了出来!我们也可以学着使用这样的表达,for example:大学里面有很多的社团供你选择,We have a broad selection of clubs in university.英语学得好的话,将来会有很多的就业机会可供选择。If we can master English very well,we will have a broad selection of employment opportunities.

3. all tailor-made
all tailor-made 纯手工制作
瞧,我的车可是纯手工打造的,Look,my car is all tailor-make.
一般情况下纯手工皮鞋都会有些贵哦,Normally all tailor-make leather shoes are a bit pricey.(Pricey贵的)

4. preferably
preferably 更好的,更合适的

We are looking for a KTV,preferably with hot pot service.
