　　英语情景对话

　　A:Pretty! Say beautiful rather. Can you imagine any thing nearer perfect beauty than she altogether---face and figure?

　　A:好看，简直太美丽了！你能想象得出她有多美吗？脸蛋漂亮，身段迷人。

　　B:I do not know what I could imagine, but I confess that I have seldom seen a face or figure more pleasing to me than hers.

　　B:我想象不出来，但是我承认我很少见到一张脸或一个身段像她这样赏心悦目的。

　　A:Such an eye! The true hazel eye-and so brilliant! Regular features, open countenance¹, with a complexion², Oh! What a bloom of full health, and such a pretty height and size; such a firm and upright figure! There is health, not merely in her bloom, but in her air, her head, her glance. One hears sometimes of a child being "the picture of health"; now, she always gives me the idea of being the complete picture of grown-up health. She is loveliness itself.

　　A:达样的眼睛！真正的淡褐色眼睛，而且熠熠发光！五官端正，长相大方．面色红润，哦，多具有健康蓬勃的朝气啊，而且身材高挑，丰腴适度。不仅她的青春蓬勃健康，而且她的气度，她的头脑，她的眼神同样如此。人们有时会听到一个小孩子被称为“健康的形象”，现在她给我的感觉完全就是“成人健康的典范”。她是可爱的化身。
