对话
D: Sophie, what happened to your face?
S: Got sunburned. Last weekend I went with my boyfriend to the beach, and I forgot to take my sunscreen lotion with me.
D: No wonder your face is all red and starts peeling. Sun block cream is a must in such hot summer days. Now all there's left to do is to apply fruit facial mask to your face. Next time don’t forget to wear your sunscreen lotion, and remember to wear a broad brim hat.
S: I wonder which kind of facial mask could cure my acnes. They have never stopped growing on my face since summer. How could I get rid of them?
D: I suggest you select a good facial scrub, and drink more water. Applying hydrating facial mask from time to time is even better.
S: Thanks for your advice, I will try them. How come you don’t have a problem with your skin at summertime? You are so lucky!
D: I wish I could be so lucky, but I also have big troubles with my skin in summer. You know, I’m a big mosquito magnet. I always get mosquito bites. I guess it has something to do with my blood type.
S: Well, in that case, I think you had better keep away from perfumes and heavily scented hair sprays, which could attract mosquitoes. You could use insect repellent when needed, but do wash thoroughly afterwards.
D: I guess I must temporarily say goodbye to my dear perfume then.
S: Oh, and avoid wearing black and dark-colored clothing. They attract mosquitoes too.
D: What? Black is my favorite color! I hate summer!
