流行美语第378课：舍己为人，不可能！ -（韦博分享） 流行美语第378课：舍己为人，不可能！ -（韦博分享） 今天Larry和李华一起去参加哈利波特的电影首映会。Li Hua非常喜欢饰演哈利波特的丹尼尔.拉德克利夫，兴奋不已。Li Hua会学到两个常用语：glam和five oclock shadow. LH: 今天能见到丹尼尔拉德克利夫耶! 我的白马王子!! LL: WOW. Lihua, you must be really excited to meet Harry Potter in person. LH: 那当然，他简直是太帅了... (The cast of Harry Potter walk out) LL: Oh look, its the cast! They sure look glam! LH: Glam是什么意思啊? 听起来好像glamorous. LL: Youre absolutely correct! Glam means glamorous. It describes someone wearing fashionable clothing and make-up, especially when done excessively. LH: 所以glam就是魅力四射的意思。那你又说尤其是用在过度打扮的人身上，这么说这个词有负面的意思喽? LL: Not at all. Glam, like glamorous, is used to describe people who dress up in a way that they really stand out, but stand out in a good way. It is often used to describe celebrities. LH: 原来如此。Glam是用来形容打扮华丽的人，而不是过度打扮的人，所以形容明星最合适！那太好了，我一定要学起来，等会告诉丹尼尔。 LL: Im sure Daniel Radcliffe will be very happy to hear it. LH: Larry, youre such a glam today! LL: Uh, thank you? Why are you saying it to me? Im only wearing jeans and a t-shirt. LH: 我只是想练习一下！免得等会搞砸了。哎，我这么说对吗？ LL: Well, you said youre such a glam today. Which means you used the word glam as a noun. However, it is an adjective, just like the original word, glamorous. So you would have to say, youre so glam today. LH: 我明白了，glam是形容词，所以我刚应该说youre so glam today，而不是youre such a glam today. LL: Yup, thats right. (The actors are slowly walking towards Larry and Li Huas direction) LH: 会看，那不是哈利嘛！哈利！哈利！ LL: Hmmm...slow down Lihua. Are you sure thats Harry? I didnt know Harry has a five oclock shadow. LH: 你在说什么呀！我说演哈利的丹尼尔来了，又没问你时间...而且现在才三点，别捣乱。 LL: No, I mean he has a beard. A five oclock shadow is facial stubble, it sometimes describes a mans beard at the end of the day. LH: 啊？原来five oclock shadow是指胡子，就是男生一天下来，到下午五点就会长出来的一点点胡子, 所以人们就用five oclock shadow来形容男生脸上的胡子茬子。 LL: Yes. That is correct. After a days work, many men will have a noticeable growth of facial hair. Since most people finish work around five oclock, its called a five oclock shad
