你好!今天天气真好,我决定去商店买一些新衣服。我走进一家大服装店,里面有很多漂亮的衣服。我想找一件白色的衬衫。我看到几件,但是不知道哪一件更好。我摸了摸这件衬衫,面料很舒服,看起来很适合我。我又看了看那边的裤子,它们看起来也很不错。我需要一条新裤子吗?店员走过来,微笑着看着我。我应该先问哪一件呢?

  • 裤子 — Pants, 这条裤子多少钱?

店员很有礼貌地问我:“你好,你想要什么?” 我指着那件白衬衫说:“我想要这件衬衫。这件多少钱?” 她告诉我价格。嗯,有点贵。我说:“可以便宜一点吗?” 她笑了笑,说:“这是新款,没有折扣。” 我又问:“我可以试穿吗?” 她说可以。我试穿了这件衬衫,大小很合适。我真的很喜欢。我决定买下它。我拿出手机,用手机支付了。她对我说:“谢谢惠顾!” 我也很开心地说:“谢谢!” 买了喜欢的东西,感觉真好!
