BBC地道英语:In 入时

2012-02-17来源:和谐英语

Yang Li: Yes Diarmuid, I’ve just run all the way to the studio from a fashion show. It’s London Fashion Week.

Diarmuid: Oh yes, so it is. Here you go, have a glass of water and catch your breath!

Yang Li: Thank you.

Diarmuid: Now Li.

Yang Li: Yes?

Diarmuid: Are you wearing a jacket with shoulder pads?

Yang Li: Yes. 我穿的外套里有垫肩。

Diarmuid: But, didn’t they go out of fashion ages ago? I didn’t know they were back in.

Yang Li: In what?

Diarmuid: In fashion.

Yang Li: I see. Well yes, they are. Diarmuid 用了 in 这个词来表示 in fashion. 在英语里我们也经常会用 in 这个词来说什么东西或事情现在非常流行,入时。

Diarmuid: Yes, we can use it about things like clothes, hairstyles and music.

Examples

A: I like her shoes, but those jeans are awful.

B: What? High-waist jeans are so in right now.

A: Brian’s new haircut is great, isn’t it?

B: Yes, pink hair is really in at the moment.


Diarmuid: So what do you think about my flares?

Are 1970s fashions coming back in?

Yang Li: Hmmm, Diarmuid 的喇叭裤 – 喇叭牛仔裤? Sorry, they’re out of fashion now.

Diarmuid: Really, they’re not in any more?

Yang Li: Sorry, they went out in the 70s.

Diarmuid: Oh.

Yang Li: But don’t worry, they’ll probably come back in a couple of years!

Diarmuid: Well, let’s hope so. In the meantime, the best place to catch up with Authentic Real English programmes is our website: www.bbcukchina.com.
