Albert: It's getting colder. The wind is howling like a banshee!

艾尔伯特: 天气越来越冷了。风像女妖一样咆哮着!

Jeremy: Hah hah...You can say that again. I'm really chilled to the bone.

艾尔伯特: 我也是。风简直要了我的命! 我希望我能熬过这个寒冷的冬天。

Jeremy: I've heard that winter in Nanjing is tough.

杰里米: 我听说南京的冬天很难熬。

Albert: Yeah. Having a goose-down jacket may save your life. To keep warm or to stay in with fashion,that is the question.

艾尔伯特: 是的。穿一件羽绒服可能会救你一命。保暖还是赶时髦，这是个问题。

Jeremy: Well,not for me.

杰里米: 嗯，对我来说不是。

Albert: Yeah yeah,you're a trendsetter. You look good in anything! Happy now?

Jeremy: Sure. No problem! I'll dress you like a king.

杰里米: 当然。没问题! 我要把你打扮成国王。

Albert: Haha...But,will it be a little wired for two guys to go shopping together?

艾尔伯特: 哈哈……但是，两个男人一起去购物会不会有点奇怪呢?

Jeremy: Maybe,but you have no choice. You don't have a girlfriend.

杰里米: 也许吧，但你别无选择。你没有女朋友。

Albert: Yeah. Thanks for reminding me of that.

艾尔伯特: 是的。谢谢你提醒我。

Jeremy: You're welcome! Where do you wanna go then?

杰里米: 不客气! 那你想去哪儿?
