小编笔记：
课文是一段简单的顾客和鞋店店员的对话，顾客想买某个特定款式的女鞋，并指出其妹妹上个月在美国买到这个，但是店员告诉她，这款鞋在去年和前年流行，现在已经不流行了，本店并没有这款了，并试图引导客户买另款女鞋。但是顾客对店员介绍的新款一点也不满意。本课值得留意的语法现象包括：
- I'm afraid that....一种常见的委婉表达，恐怕我会让你失望，恐怕。。。
- 系表结构：these shoes are in fashion now, they were in fashion last year, they are not in fashion this year, they look very Uncomfortable, they are very uncomfortable
- women always wear uncomfortable shoes! 主谓宾一般现在时
