Meg: So those are the clothes you wear in summer. What do you wear in winter?

The only clothes I always keep, I always save are my nice jackets. I have two nice jackets for work, and I wear my, you know, my business jackets to school. And that's about it.

梅格:冬天非常冷。你外出时不加衣服吗?
Todd: No. I don't like scarves and I don't like things like ear muffs and gloves. So I usually just keep my hands in my pockets. But I do have a couple of sweaters. So each year, I like to buy one or two new sweaters. And I do wear those sometimes.

梅格:毛衣很保暖。那下雪的时候呢?你会穿靴子吗?
Todd: No. I don't wear boots. And luckily, it doesn't snow that often where I live, so I don't have boots. But I should buy some, maybe. Sometimes, I buy the really cheap rubber boots or plastic boots that I know I don't have to keep for a long time. But, you know, boots like that are easy to get rid of.

梅格:嗯,听起来那是个不错的主意。我们刚说了夏天和冬天,那你秋天和春天穿什么?
Todd: Well, fall and spring is great because in fall and spring, you can wear nice clothes. So usually, if I buy dress shoes, I like to wear those in fall and spring. In winter, sometimes, the dress shoes aren't really good for the snow but I like to wear nice dress shoes in the fall and spring. And then, sometimes, in the fall and spring, I might wear a tie when I go to work. And of course, I have my slacks and I have my jeans, and I have my, you know, running shoes. So I keep those as well.
托德:秋天和夏天非常好,因为秋天和春天可以穿漂亮衣服。通常,如果我买正装鞋,那我会在秋天和春天穿。冬天下雪的时候,不适合穿正装鞋,所以我喜欢在秋天和春天穿正装鞋。另外,在秋天和春天,我上班时可能会打领带。当然,我也会穿休闲裤、牛仔裤和跑步鞋。
Meg: As a woman, I often wear skirts. And so, sometimes in the fall and spring, I wear tights underneath the skirts but you don't wear tights, do you?
梅格:作为女性,我经常穿短裙。在秋天和夏天,有时我会在短裙里穿紧身裤,不过你不穿紧身裤,对吧?

But I don't like things like necklaces or, you know, bracelets. I don't really like jewelry. I do wear a watch sometimes but I don't wear a watch everyday because now, you don't need a watch. You can just look at your phone.
托德:不会,我不太喜欢饰品。我刚才说过,有时我会打领带,不过不太常打。当然,我有腰带。我需要腰带,不过我只有一条腰带,这就够了。我不喜欢项链、手链之类的饰品。我不太喜欢珠宝首饰。我有时会带手表,不过不是每天都带,因为我们不需要手表,看手机就可以知道时间了。
Meg: That's true. I usually use my phone also.
梅格:没错。我也用手机看时间。
