2. Main Conversation

Finding a jacket that fits

Aisha returns to Northline Clothing with a jacket she bought the day before. She has the receipt and the tags are still attached.

Part A — Explaining the problem

Sales associate: Hi. How can I help?

Aisha: I'd like to exchange this jacket. I bought a small, but the sleeves are too short.

Sales associate: No problem. Do you have the receipt?

Aisha: Yes, and I haven't removed the tags. Do you have this in a medium?

Sales associate: We have the same color in a medium. We also have a more fitted cut in medium. Both have longer sleeves.

Aisha: Could I try both of them on?

Sales associate: Of course. The fitting rooms are behind you.

Part B — Comparing three options

Sales associate: How does the standard medium fit?

Aisha: The sleeves are long enough, but the body is too loose. It feels bigger than I need.

Sales associate: And the more fitted medium?

Aisha: This one fits better. The sleeves are longer than the first jacket's, and the body isn't as loose as the standard medium.

Sales associate: That cut is twelve dollars more expensive.

Aisha: I saw that. Is the navy one the same price?

Sales associate: Yes, but we only have navy in small and large today.

Aisha: Then the gray medium is the best option. It's comfortable enough, and the sleeves are the right length. I'll take this one.

Sales associate: Great. I'll process the exchange. You only need to pay the twelve-dollar difference.

Aisha: Thanks. I'm glad I kept the receipt.

  6. How much more does she pay?

3. 中文译文需要时展开

找一件合身的夹克

艾莎带着前一天买的夹克回到 Northline Clothing。她带了收据,吊牌也还没有拆。

Part A — 说明问题

店员: 你好,有什么可以帮你的吗?

艾莎: 我想换一下这件夹克。我买的是小号,但袖子太短了。

店员: 没问题。你带收据了吗?

艾莎: 带了,而且吊牌还没拆。这款有中号吗?

店员: 同样颜色有中号。我们还有一款更修身的中号,两款的袖子都更长。

艾莎: 两件我都可以试一下吗?

店员: 当然。试衣间就在你身后。

Part B — 比较三个选择

店员: 标准版中号穿起来怎么样?

艾莎: 袖子够长,但衣身太宽松了。感觉比我需要的大。

店员: 那件更修身的中号呢?

艾莎: 这一件更合身。袖子比第一件夹克长,衣身也没有标准版中号那么宽松。

店员: 这个版型贵十二美元。

艾莎: 我看到了。藏青色那件也是这个价格吗?

店员: 是的,不过今天藏青色只有小号和大号。

艾莎: 那灰色中号就是最合适的选择。穿着够舒服,袖长也正好。我要这一件。

店员: 好的,我来办理换货。你只需要补十二美元的差价。

艾莎: 谢谢。幸好我留着收据。

翻译提示:衣服 fits better 是“更合身”,而 comfortable enough 表示“舒适度已经达到需要”,并不是“特别舒服”。


4. Read, Notice, Understand

A. Compare the three product cards

Option Color Size / cut Sleeve length Price Stock
A gray small / standard 59 cm $68 purchased
B gray medium / standard 62 cm $68 in stock
C gray medium / fitted cut 62 cm $80 in stock

根据表格回答:

  1. Which two jackets have the same sleeve length?
  2. Which option is more expensive than the others?
  3. If the standard medium is too loose, which option keeps longer sleeves with a more fitted body?
  4. 用两句英语比较A和C,不要只抄数字。

B. Read the return policy

NORTHLINE RETURNS & EXCHANGES
Returns or exchanges within 30 days
Receipt required
Tags must remain attached
Worn or washed clothing cannot be returned
Price differences are charged or refunded

判断Aisha是否符合退换条件,并列出两条证据。然后回答:如果她已经剪掉标签,材料能否证明店员仍会同意?

C. fit、size与look不同

  • size 是标签上的尺码:small, medium, large;
  • fit 是穿在身上是否合适:tight, loose, comfortable;
  • look 是外观感受:formal, casual, good on you。

同一个 medium 也可能因为版型不同而 fit better


5. What People Actually Say

本课负荷说明

本课有7项全新主动表达:第1—7项。第8—10项是店员常用回应和旧语言复用。

1. I'd like to exchange this.

我想换这件商品。后面补充具体原因和希望更换的项目。

I'd like to exchange this shirt for a larger one.

2. Do you have this in a medium?

这件有中码吗?this in + 尺码/颜色 是购物中的高频结构。

Do you have this in black?

3. Could I try it on?

我可以试穿吗?代词放在短语动词中间:try it on,不是 try on it

Could I try these on?

4. How does it fit?

穿着合适吗?询问的是松紧、长短和舒适度,不只是标签尺码。

How do the shoes fit?

5. It's too …

它太……了,已经超过可接受范围。

It's too tight across the shoulders.

6. This one fits better.

这一件更合身。比较至少两个实际选项,betterwell 的比较级。

The fitted medium fits better than the standard medium.

7. I'll take this one.

我就要这件。比较完成后明确作出购买选择。

The blue one is more practical. I'll take this one.

8. Do you have the receipt?

有收据吗?退换时常见的核对问题。

9. It's … enough.

它足够……。形容词放在 enough 前:long enough,不是 enough long

10. You only need to pay the difference.

你只需要补差价。付款前应确认具体金额。

Don't Say It That Way

容易说出的句子 更自然的表达 原因
Change this. I'd like to exchange this. 说明交易意图,不像命令
Give me medium. Do you have this in a medium? 询问库存和具体商品
Can I try on it? Could I try it on? 代词放在短语中间
This is more fit. This one fits better. fit 在这里作动词,比较副词用 better

6. Grammar Refresh — 比较、too与enough

1. 短形容词比较级

long → longer
small → smaller
large → larger

The sleeves are longer than the first jacket's.

2. 较长形容词用more

comfortable → more comfortable
expensive → more expensive

Option C is more expensive than Option A.

3. too:超过合适范围

The sleeves are too short.
The body is too loose.

too 不只是“很”,而是暗示这个程度造成问题。

4. enough:达到所需程度

The sleeves are long enough.
The jacket isn't warm enough.

形容词在前,enough 在后。

快速练习

  1. The blue jacket is __________ than the gray one. (cheap)
  2. This cut is __________ comfortable than the standard cut.
  3. The sleeves stop above my wrists. They're __________ short.
  4. These sleeves reach my wrists. They're long __________.
  5. The fitted medium __________ better than the standard medium. (fit)
  6. Option C costs $80; Option A costs $68. C is __________.

7. Sound Natural — 比较信息的重音

本课网页已配有完整对话、逐句播放和影子跟读。重点听尺码、松紧、长短和价格比较中的重读词。

比较时,把真正变化的词读重:

The sleeves are LONGER, but the body is LOOSER.
This one fits BETTER.
It's twelve dollars MORE EXPENSIVE.

Do you have this in a medium? 中,medium 是最重要的新信息:

Do you have this in a MEDIUM?

录音

看第3部分三张产品卡,录45—60秒。比较尺码、袖长和价格,最后选择。回听时检查:听者能否不看表格也知道你拒绝了哪一件、选择了哪一件?

  2. 店员随机回复“目标尺码缺货”“只有另一颜色”“新款贵$15”之一。再写30—50词,比较选项并确认接受、等待或退款。

9. Make It Yours

任务一:三选一

  1. 说明退换意图和原因;
  2. 询问目标尺码或颜色;
  3. 试用或检查两个替代项;
  4. 至少作三次有信息价值的比较;
  5. tooenough 各一次;
  6. 明确最终选择和差价。

至少自然使用本课7项全新主动表达中的6项。

任务二:独立录音

不让伙伴参与,录60—90秒“商品评估”。听者必须能回答:原商品哪里不合适、三个选项怎样不同、你为何作出最终选择。

三天后的复习

不看本课,用三个真实商品页面完成:

Compare the size or specifications, price, and one practical feature. Reject one as too much or too little, identify one that is good enough, and choose.

如果只会说 good / bad,重做第5部分和第7部分C。
