情景英语：中级美语对话(第41讲)

 41. Getting a Tan p.271

    Both my brother and I are outgoing people. He as well as I likes being in the sun. It goes without saying, therefore, that we spend a lot of our free time at the beach. We go there to relax as well as to keep fit. To be frank, though, he no less than I enjoys looking at the beautiful "scenery" around the beach.

    However, if you are anything like us, we have a piece of advice for you. Don't forget to rub a good amount of sunscreen lotion¹ all over your body. Not only does it protect you from getting skin cancer, but it also helps to keep you nicely tanned. Both my brother and I forgot to do that and now we look like Afro-Americans rather than Chinese.
