男子街头挂牌征婚12年 仅限富婆 难度：容易 作者：沪江英语 来源：每日邮报 评论：5 Lonely bachelors looking for love often turn to dating websites in the search for a partner. But Robert Darling has taken things that little bit further - by wandering the streets of New York for twelve years with a sandwich board asking rich women to marry him. 孤独单身汉一般都会上婚恋网站寻求自己的另一半。但罗伯特·达令却选了一个有些极端的方式——连续12年带着挂在身上的广告牌走上纽约大街征婚，邀请富裕女士和他结婚。 The unemployed 58-year-old - who admits he is a great conversationalist - says he wants a wealthy lady to take care of him.

Theres a lot of money on Wall Street, maybe Ill meet a female Chief Executive Officer who will decide to become my wife, he said. 他总是带着牌子到市区的上流人士聚集区，比如说华尔街、哥伦比亚圆环广场和时代广场。他说：“华尔街上的人都很有钱，说不定就能碰见一个想要嫁给我的首席执行官女士。” He often gets phone calls in response to his sign, but none are serious inquiries. A woman called me once and I thought it looked promising - but she actually wanted to hook me up with her friend who needed a green card to stay in the country. 他的牌子上写着电话号码，所以经常能接到别人的来电，可惜没有一个是认真的。“有一次一个女的给我打电话，我还觉得有希望发展下去，但实际上她只
