老杨团队,追求完美;客户至上,服务到位!
美国人尽管喊了多少年的「性开放」,但很多美国人在谈情说爱方面,仍然喜欢采用一些含蓄保守的词句或语句,表现文明和礼貌。以下举一些例句,或许能说明一二。 ! `9 `+ U# T5 {8 T

$ p/ C$ |- E5 z- ~, j6 fto have a crush on (someone);
0 p( ~9 G% J8 g1 R" M1 O0 G0 e& V4 H
to feel an instant magnetism;
) k) K% p  d- d& }7 A; m: w; d# ~: k( J  V
to catch one‘s eyes; to hit it off; 9 S+ ]. c% ~8 K& Q

0 L8 }0 k* f% L% e  to have the hots for (someone); " D0 I& t- \: v3 E* ^! P9 H. r  |

& j6 t( t! `/ [/ V# ~2 u  to be attracted to each other. # O: i  X8 E# M8 N

7 p: x1 c" d  [5 n$ E$ f  这些片语,都是描写男女间互相倾慕,两情相悦,有吸引力或一见锺情。 * l, G3 u6 I& x* b6 g  S

! c* O) r8 T) y2 V  例如: 5 X% I8 I5 Z3 }- R  o# E  ~

* P3 h$ [' ~1 K* o" O- c0 M  * He (she) has a crush on her (him) (他对她十分爱慕) 。
6 E( f- U) k1 y5 P1 m
+ {1 \" F2 G8 w; V2 ?1 X" \  * He felt an instant magnetism when their eyes met. (他们见面时,他立即感到磁性般的吸住)。 ! c& }, [6 c& {  }. R/ D( _

- k" F+ _2 V" h  |4 _' |  意指女的外表吸引; 如果是 she felt …… 那么就是指男的外表吸引。
9 R! _9 C" |1 M! J7 j/ t$ T) M. i; b* J& X3 h& ^" a* b, k
  * A nice-looking girl caught his eye.(漂亮的妞儿吸住)。 注意:不用 eyes。
9 u$ F+ K* t0 e% e3 W) O( q8 T* {0 ^% _/ J
  * He was introduced to a pretty woman and they seem to hit it off immediately.(他被介绍给一位漂亮女子後,他们似乎就一见锺情)。 或 3 r8 {  V% z" h3 R

  * When he met her, he had the hots for her.(当他见到她,他就对她爱慕不已。)(多半指 sexual attraction。) 5 A  o4 Z# d3 c; x# _+ R8 t9 y
6 p  m) p) s$ ^: |
  例如说,女对男的没有兴趣,那么也可以说:
! c. ^" K0 K2 {; S5 R7 n0 Y- s, K
' o( U1 h% L0 o  * She did not feel any attraction toward him.(她对他毫无兴趣); 或 2 }2 G3 `! f) b; a

" R. m/ C& f5 |7 e' K6 i/ w
  这里的 catch,可指财富、地位、名望和外表。
4 R4 x) F+ B& Q7 p3 _# S$ O! y& Y2 e6 C
  to be a lady‘s man (或 ladies‘ man);
# X$ u. V) q3 p

$ C: J# m9 I, B/ R3 B0 A  to be a womanizer. 
4 L3 `8 i4 A/ V) h4 n  D5 S- G0 `0 W
  这些都是指男人英俊潇洒,作风奔放,野性旺盛,喜欢在「女人窝」里。例如: - b% o6 W/ m9 V% i
6 W! T- t" h# B( q, D6 @
  * Mr. Lin has been considered a prince on a white horse.(林先生被认为是白马王子。) 5 D  }3 S% e. X
4 y2 Z8 A" M+ h, @9 Y% @; N8 r
  这是中古时代女子对男人的梦中理想,然而现在也有老外认为美男子应该是:全身盔甲灿烂光辉的王子。 3 W5 n$ p% ~& W, ~8 F* L$ W7 F

0 i0 k" S. l$ Z# J( g6 O  * He is a prince in a shining armour.(动词时态:shine, shone 或 shined。)

  *As a casanova, he has many girl friends.(由於他是美男子,他有许多女友。) 7 D% J& a+ a. X: h( {5 P3 A

$ ]2 P; h. ~; X+ j" z  (Casanova 是义大利人,据说是顶尖的美男子,他的全名是:Casanova de seingalt Giovanni Giacomo 在此 casanova 被当做普通名词,故 c 不必大写。
/ p6 C( L6 R7 x! z5 A$ M, q
6 ?0 R% A7 `6 _. J( B, }, ]! u4 g6 m" r8 I. u3 W
  如果形容男人外表魅惑力大,能使女人「如饥似渴」般崇拜他,也可以说: ) O5 c( ]9 Y) ^

% D5 ?" b3 D% \  * He has melted her down and made her knees buckle.(他把她溶化了,使她拜倒他的西装裤下)。
3 a/ a3 c: d9 E. Y& ?$ a, g, g# C# G! n3 ^$ k& q
  这句话老外通常不用在男人身上,也许因为男子应该比较坚强些吧!或且说:
! Y# l% [7 z/ _( B8 r! ]# |1 z' R0 Y& v& `( F
  * So many women swarmed him like bees to the honey.(许多女人看到他,就像一群蜜蜂见到蜜那样蜂拥而至。) 7 }5 i! J( {) j' {

5 f* z' h( g" Z. W
* b* I/ C- ~6 b" h; J  倘若说:…… like flies to the garbage 指像一群苍蝇喜欢垃圾那样,当然就不是恭维了。 ; {  {9 b. G; l: q: I
5 ~. F# Q# l0 _* \

  这些都是形容女人漂亮,曲线玲珑,身材曼妙,挥身性感或散发一种性感的野性。 " _4 ]: }+ P9 W

/ O# l) Y. B) z
- `) N3 s/ n9 j  假如女人能使男人拜倒她的石榴裙下或神魂颠倒那么就能说:

6 L( c; [! y' @9 H  ]( N% o. P
  其实,所谓「情人眼里出西施」(Beauty is in the eyes of beholder),世上的美或丑,只是主观的看法而已。
