Unit 16 A New Fashion Designer  新诞生的服装设计师

Charity Bremner was known amongst her friends as having an eye for fashion. She just seemed to know what colors and farics matched and what didn't.
夏绿蒂·布鲁默在朋友眼中，是出了名对流行眼光独到的人，她总是知道哪种颜色和布料比较搭配，哪种比较不搭。

One could always find her scribbling down fashion ideas in her notebook or see her doodling outfits on napkins. She spent her free time sewing her own design and altering the clothes in her closet.
不管在哪里，总是会看到她在笔记本上画下服装设计的点子，或者看到她在餐巾上画着服饰。她在空闲时，会缝制她的设计并改造衣橱里的衣服。

Friends saw Charity's talent and urged her to attend fashion school. She began a two-year fashion program and did very well at it. Each year, students who graduate from the two-year program hold a fashion show. The students are always nervous about their graduation show because many important people from the fashion industry are in attendence.
朋友看到夏绿蒂的天分，便怂恿她去念服装设计学院。她开始两年的设计课程，并且表现优秀。在那所两年一制的学校里，每年都会有毕业生举行毕业服装展，由于服装界的重要人士都会出席这个服装展，因此毕业生总是很紧张。

When it was time for Charity's models to go on stage, she was shaking like a leaf,"What if no one likes my ideas?"she thought. For Charity, scribbling her ideas down in a book seemed so safe compared to this.
轮到夏绿蒂的模特儿上台走台步时，她像树叶般频频发抖。“要是没人喜欢我的点子，那该如何是好？”她心想。对夏绿蒂来说，在书上涂鸦似乎比这件事来得安全。

Charity didn't have to worry for long. A small company loved her stuff and asked her to be a designer on their team. Charity was a success!
不过，夏绿蒂的顾虑并没有持续多久，有家小公司喜欢她的设计，并邀请她加入他们的设计团队。夏绿蒂成功了！
