　　Q:Do you have any tips on how I should file my nails?

　　对于打磨指甲你有什么好的建议吗？

　　A:Too often, we’re tempted to saw at our nails, from side to side. This is the worst thing you can do. Make sure your nails are totally dry before you begin to shape them to avoid splitting or tearing.

　　我们经常会来回磨指甲，这样不对。在打磨指甲之前，确保指甲是干的，以免打磨时发生断裂。

　　Position the nail file at a 45-degree angle under the nail, and file the nails from the left hand corner to the centre of the nail for a few long gentle strokes. If necessary, use nail clippers to shorten the nails first. Most people opt for a "squoval"shape, but this summer is all about round shapes for short nails or almond shapes for long nails.

　　将锉刀以45度角放置于指甲下方，从指甲的左边慢慢磨到中间，如有必要，先把指甲剪断一点再磨。许多人喜欢由方形过渡到椭圆的指甲形状，但是今夏的潮流是：短指磨成甲圆形，长指甲磨成杏仁形。
