In the summer he would come out wearing a yellow or green polo shirt stuffed sloppily into his trousers in front and hanging loose behind. When it was colder he wore over this a shapeless gray sweater.两个伙伴很不一样。带路的是那个非常肥胖、迷迷糊糊的希腊人。夏天,他出门时总是穿着黄色或绿色T恤——前摆被他胡乱地塞进裤子里,后摆松松垮垮地垂着。 天冷一些的时候,他就在衬衫外面套上松松垮垮的灰毛衣。 注释: dreamy:形容人迷迷糊糊的 polo shirt stuffed sloppily into his trousers:衬衫胡乱塞进裤子里 登陆网站 参加免费试学www.pacificenglish.cn stuff:动词，填、塞 sloppy:马虎的，胡乱的 a shapeless sweater:我们说那种松松垮垮没有型的衣服，就是shapeless His face was round and oily, with half-closed eyelids and lips that curved in a gentle, stupid smile. 他的脸圆圆、油油的,眼皮半开半闭,弯曲的嘴唇显出温柔而呆滞的笑容。 注释: lips that curved in a gentle, stupid smile:curve在这里的使用很不错，可以记住 The other mute was tall.
