你知道多少的時尚詞彙?考考自己,看看下面的這個fashion quiz吧。

  1: Which of the following prepositions means that something is fashionable?

a. up

b. down

c. in

d. out

答案是:c. in,in在英語裏往往代表時尚的意思,比如what's in at the moment?意思就是現在流行的是什麼?你可能也會聽到人們談到the in-thing,它指那些現在流行、時尚的東西,並不侷限於時裝,還包含音樂,語言表達等。Up, downt都不是時尚的意思,out正好和時尚相反,這個詞是指過時的。

a. loosy

b. baggy

c. tight

d. shaggy

答案是:b. baggy,Baggy表示衣服穿着很寬鬆,有的時候流行的是寬鬆類型的衣服,並不代表衣服不合身。a不對,因爲英語裏沒有loosy這個詞;c不對,因爲tight是寬鬆的反義詞,意思是很緊;d不對,因爲Shaggy一般是用來形容頭髮亂糟糟的意思。

towns across Britain

d. Clothes that you can only wear outside

答案是:c,High street fashion的意思就是指大衆能接受的時裝流行趨勢。a不對,因爲A high street一般指商業街,不過不是所有商業街上的時裝店買的都是high street時裝;b不對,因爲high street fashion一般沒有價格昂貴的頂級名牌時裝。
