奥巴马在Gap服装店为妻子女儿买衣服

 

At the store, he sorted carefully through sweaters in search of a purchase for one of his two daughters, Sasha and Malia, before holding up a pink one.

 

"I'm worried the V-neck is going to slip," the president said before opting⁴ for a regular-cut neck.

 

The president wound up（紧张的） buying two button-down（领尖有纽扣的）, long-sleeve sweaters: one in light pink and the other a bright coral, both smalls. The cotton-blend items were made in China and cost $44.95 each.

 

Moving to the adult women's section, Obama declared wife Michelle difficult to shop for: "Maybe I should buy some socks."

 

Part-time salesclerk Susan Panariello recommended a hoodie（连帽衫） for the First Lady, but the president said she doesn't like them.

 

He instead chose a slate-blue, medium athletic⁵ zip-up track jacket for Michelle, who has made no bones about her love for Gap's styles, once wearing a $10 t-shirt to a lunch with former First Lady Nancy Reagan.

 

The polyester-blend jacket, made in Vietnam, put him back $64.95. "It never hurts to bring something back when you've been on a road trip. You get points when you go home," Obama quipped after buying a warm-up jacket for wife Michelle and two long-sleeve sweaters for daughters Malia, 15, and Sasha, 12.

 

"I think the ladies will be impressed by my style sense."

 

He joked while sifting⁶ through the garments among roughly⁷ 20 shocked customers.
