英语悠选脱口秀 第137期:长发好看还是短发好看

 讲解

Today's key word is hairstyle

hairstyle h-a-i-r-s-t-y-l-e

发型

Your hairstyle is the style in which your hair has been cut or arranged.

Here is an example:

I think her new short hairstyle looks simply great.

我觉得她新剪的短发特别好看。

嗯，我们今天要讨论的就是女孩的发型。

This topic has a very long history in our daily life.

So, which hairstyle do you prefer long hair or short hair?

For those who are into long hair:

Long hair is like a special sign of girls.

There is a reason why ladies in the history all have long hair.

It makes girl pretty. It makes a girl girl.

Besides, if you have long hair, you can make different hairstyle almost everyday as long as you are capable¹ to do it.

长发做发型很方便啊，每天都能换一个不同的造型。

可以扎马尾，可编麻花辫，可以梳公主头，也可以随性的散落箭头。

光是想想都很美呢！

And I heard that boys like girls with black straight long hair?

Is it true?

But for those who prefer short hair:

It is so complicated² and not convenient at all to have long hair?

Think about shower time, ladies!

How long do you need to spend to just wash your hair?

不光洗头发麻烦啊，想把头发晾干也要花费很长时间。

很麻烦啊！

梳头发的时候还会掉的到处都是，清扫起来都不方便！

So why do you want to waste such precious time on your hair which is just dead stuff³ on our head.
