  美女不一定都拥有沉鱼落雁般的容颜,智慧的女人同样美丽。
  1.Seldom have I met a girl who's had such a gift of gab like Lily's.
  我几乎从未见过像莉莉这样有口才的女孩子。
  “口才”的英语表达法是the gift of gab。一般情况下,该短语强调的是“讲话的能力”,与讲话的实际内容没有关系。
  Seldom have I met a girl who's had such a gift of gab like Lily's.
  我几乎从未见过像莉莉这样有口才的女孩子。
  2.She has a mind like a steel trap.
  她脑瓜很好使。
  steel trap原指捕熊及其它动物的一种工具。据说这种工具非常灵敏,一碰即合,后来人们便以此来形容脑瓜灵活的人了。
  She has a mind like a steel trap. Nothing needs to be explained twice to her.
  她脑瓜很好使。什么事情都不用说第二遍。
  3.She has a lot on the ball.
  她是一个能干的人。
  “很能干”在英语中有很多种说法,比如:be able to do... be capable of ...但是to have a lt on the ball 更符合英美人的口语习惯,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]。
  I'm sure he can do a good job in the business. He has a lot on the ball.
  我认为她肯定能做好这份工作。她很能干。
  4.She's a rough diamond.
  她是个外粗内秀的人。
  a rough diamond本意是“没有雕刻的钻石”。钻石在没有进行人工处理之前,其表面并非非常光滑。然而一经加工,就会显得光彩夺目。用这样的比喻来意指“外粗内秀”岂不是妙不可言?
  A: She's a rough diamond. Although she seems to be careless, she does everything tiptop.
  她是个外粗内秀的人。别看她大大咧咧的,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],干起事来总是顶呱呱的。
  5.She can be a notch above all the others.
  她比其他任何人都略胜一筹。
  据说,古时人们比赛时把一根木棍插在地上,从下往上将得分刻在木棍上。这样得分高的人的notch(痕迹)就高于得分低的人。后来人们便借此比喻be better或be higher的概念了。
  When it comes to teaching grammar, she can be a notch above all the others.
  她教课很棒,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]。论教语法,她比其他任何人都略胜一筹。
  6.She has a big drag with the boss.
  她在老板那儿很吃得开。
  have a big drag是个地道的口语形式,直译为“有很大的牵扯”,意指“吃得开”。
  You know her company? She has a big drag with the boss.
  你知道她的公司吧?她在老板那儿很吃得开。
  7.She's so honey-lipped.
  她嘴特别甜。
  中国人习惯把“嘴甜的”说成是sweet-mouthed。但是,英美人认为应该用honey-lipped才更符合他们的习惯。
  She's so honey-lipped tahe she knows how to tailor her words to please the ears of different people.
  她嘴特别甜,很会见什么人说什么话。
  8.She has taste on fashion
  她眼光很独到啊。
  其他表达 ①She has an good eye for fashion.她对时尚有很好的眼光。
  ②She has good taste in clothes她对服装有很好的审美眼光。
  ③She has a flair for good poetry.她有监别好诗的眼光。
