天气变热了,身边不少人换上了美美的夏装,很是惊艳。今天我们就来学习一个夸赞别人打扮得漂亮的美国习惯用语:dressed to kill。
这个习惯用语的意思当然不是穿上蒙面的紧身衣去干杀人的勾当;它是指打扮得漂亮入时、夺人眼球。
人们说某人dressed to kill时,通常是指这人精心打扮以吸引异性的注意。例:
Pete usually wears jeans and a T-shirt. But last night it was hard to recognize him -- he was dressed to killbecause he finally got a date with that blond hes admired for so long。
皮特平时老穿牛仔裤和T恤,但是昨晚我简直没认出他来。他打扮得帅极了,因为他倾心已久的那位金发美女终于同意跟他出去约会了。
我们再看一个用到dressed to kill的例子,这个例子说的是个女孩,说话人的妹妹玛丽为参加毕业舞会而精心打扮:
It took Mary two hours to get ready, but it was worth it -- she was dressed to killand the center of attention. Everyone was saying she was the most beautiful woman at the prom。
玛丽为参加毕业舞会花了两个钟头打扮。不过倒也挺值的,她穿戴得美丽动人,成为了舞会的焦点。大家都说她是毕业舞会上最漂亮的女孩。
