What do you think of my new suit?
Terry: What do you think of my new suit?
Michae: Not bad. I like the wide lapels and the pant cuffs. It reminds me of
one I saw in the department store the other day. Did you get it there?
Terry: No, I got it at that new outfitters on the main street.
Michael: How much did it cost?
Terry: $350.
Michael: What? You could have got the one from the department store for $200. You've been ripped off!
得利：你認(rèn)為我這套新西裝怎么樣？
麥可：很不錯(cuò)。我喜歡那大翻領(lǐng)，以及褲腳的反折邊。這套西裝使我聯(lián)想到日前在百貨公司看到的那一套。你是在那里買的嗎？
得利：不是，我是在大街那家服裝店買的。
麥可：價(jià)錢是多少？
得利：三百五十元。
麥可：什么？百貨公司那一套，二百元就可以買到了。你被人敲竹杠啦。
得利問麥可：What do you think of my new suit?這一句的of可不可以改為about？答案是'可以'.Think of、think about都有'對(duì)某人、某物抱……看法'的意思，例如：What do you think of/about his proposal?（你認(rèn)為他的建議怎樣？）不過，think high/a lot/a great deal of（認(rèn)為很好）、think badly/ill of（認(rèn)為不好）等的of卻不可改為about，例如：Don't think ill of him just because he was late last time（不要因?yàn)樗洗芜t到，就對(duì)他產(chǎn)生壞印象）。麥可回答得利說：I like the wide lapels and the pant cuffs.西裝褲腳的反折邊，英式英文叫turn-up，美式則叫cuff或trouser/pant cuff，以別于指'襯衫袖口'的cuff，例如：Tuck your turn-ups/cuffs into your socks to prevent mosquito bites（把褲腳反折處塞進(jìn)襪子里，以防被蚊叮）。Lapel是西裝的翻領(lǐng)，在左右兩襟，所以多用復(fù)數(shù)形式，和一般的衣領(lǐng)（collar）不同。Coats with narrow lapels are coming back into fashion即'窄翻領(lǐng)的外衣，又開始流行了'.Rip off是'敲竹杠'，這個(gè)詞拙欄從前談過，不必贅言；值得一談的，是main street.一般市鎮(zhèn)都有一條商鋪集中的大街，這在美國叫main street，英國叫法則頗為奇怪，是high street，切勿直譯作'高街'，例如：There are several international banks on/in the main/high street（大街上有幾家國際銀行）。
