89. Getting Braces 戴牙套
Martin had very crooked teeth. His dentist wanted to fix them. "You have to get braces," he told Martin. "Your smile will be perfect!" Martin did not like this idea. He was scared of getting braces. He had heard they hurt a lot. They were also very expensive.
马丁的牙齿非常歪,他的牙医想想修复这些牙齿。“你得戴牙套”他告诉马丁。“你的笑容将会是完美的!”马丁不喜欢这个主意,他害怕带牙套。他听说会很疼,而且还很贵。
He went to his dad to get some advice. His dad told Martin to get them. He even paid for them himself. When Martin looked at his braces in the mirror, he was unhappy. "I look ugly now!" he remarked. "Stop being ridiculous," said his dad. "You already looked that way before they put the braces on!"
他找他爸爸寻求建议,他爸爸叫去他安上牙套,他爸爸甚至自己为他出钱。当马丁对着镜子看着自己的牙套时,他很不高兴。“我现在看起来太丑了!”他评论到。“别傻了,”他爸爸说,“带牙套之前你就已经够丑了”。
