　　I have about 30 dress shirts, 10 pairs of pants, a half-dozen ties, and some sweaters, suit jackets, and t-shirts. 我约有30件西装衬衣、10条裤子、6条领带和一些毛衣、西装外套和T恤衫。

　　I pull out a clean pair of socks and underwear, and then decide which shirt I'm going to wear today. 我抽出一双干净的袜子和内衣，然后决定今天要穿哪件衬衫。

　　I'm terrible at color coordinating¹, so I usually bring my wife in at this point to help match my shirt and pants. 我不擅长色彩搭配，所以这时候我通常会请我妻子来帮我匹配衬衫和裤子。

　　I put on my belt with the silver buckle² and polish my shoes. 我系上带有银搭扣的皮带，然后把鞋擦干净。

　　I put my cell phone and car keys in my front pocket, and my wallet in the back one. 我把手机和车钥匙放进前兜里，钱包放在后兜里。

　　I put on my glasses and check myself in the mirror to make sure I look okay, and then go into the home office to get my bag. 我戴上眼镜，并照一照镜子以确保我仪表得体，然后去家庭办公室拿我的包。

　　I used to carry a more traditional briefcase³, but now I just use my computer bag to hold my laptop and my papers. 我过去常常提着更传统的公文包，但现在我只用电脑包来装笔记本电脑和公文。

　　Now it's back into the kitchen to grab my Thermos⁴ on the way out the door. 然后在出门的时候回到厨房去拿保温瓶。

　　I lock the door and then hurry to my car in the garage. 我锁上门，然后赶往车库那里。

　　I'm usually running late and today is no exception! 我通常上班会迟到，今天也是如此！
