aHey Joe, what are you doing in this department store?
嗨，乔，你在这家百货公司干什么？
bHi, Rita, I'm just looking for a pair of shoes. I won't be here for long.
嗨，瑞塔，我只是想买双鞋。我不会在这里呆很久。
aWhy not? When I go shoe shopping, I have so many options for sneakers that I spend awhile looking at all of the choices.
为什么不呢？当我去鞋店买运动鞋时，我有很多选择余地，所以我要花很长时间看好这些鞋。
bThat's my problem. I don't have a lot of options.
那是我的问题。我没有很多选择余地。
aWhat do you mean? This is a big store, isn't it?
你什么意思？这个商店很大，不是吗？
bYes, but I have unusually big feet. That wouldn't be too much of a problem except that they're also very wide, and only a few brands sell shoes that I can fit into.
是，但我的脚也特别大。本来也不会有太大问题，但是我脚又特别宽，所以只有几个牌子有我能穿的鞋。
aSo how do you usually go about buying shoes, then?
那么，你通常怎么买鞋？
bWell, first of all, I can only go to certain stores that can guarantee me a large selection.
唔，首先，我只能去那些能保证我有很大挑选余地的鞋店。
aWell, you're in the right store. If they don't have it, no one will.
那你来对了鞋店。如果他们没有你穿的鞋，其它鞋店也不会有了。
bAfter that I choose something from one of the few brands that I know will fit me. I prefer white, so I ask them to bring me a pair of white sneakers in my size. Since I’m usually only given one or two pairs of shoes that meet my qualifications, it makes it a very easy choice.
