“The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It’s the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.”

— Audrey Hepburn, Actress

「女人的美不取决于她所穿的衣服、她的身形,或她梳头的方式。女人的美在她的眼睛,因为那是通往她内心的入口,而心是爱的所在地。女人透过她灵魂反映出真正的美丽,这是她深情的关照、她所展现的热情,且女人的美只会随着时间增加。」– 奥黛丽‧赫本 (演员)

  • figure (n.) 外形,身材。例:She has a good figure. (她的身材不错。) reside (v.) 居住,存在于。例:Mary’s talent resides in her storytelling abilities. (玛莉的天份在于她说故事的能力。) reflect (v.) 反映,表现。例:That choice reflects her good taste. (例:那个选择反映她高雅的品味。)

Estée Lauder (企业家)

“Beauty is an attitude. There’s no secret. Why are all brides beautiful? Because on their wedding day they care about how they look. There are no ugly women – only women who don’t care or who don’t believe they’re attractive.”

— Estée Lauder, Entrepreneur

Elisabeth Kübler-Ross (精神科医师)

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”

— Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, Psychiatrist

「我们所认识最美丽的人是那些认识挫败、认识痛苦、认识挣扎、认识失去、并从深渊中走出来的那些人。这些人对生命怀有感恩、敏感度、及了解,使他们充满怜悯、温和、及深切的关怀。美丽的人并非偶然发生。」– 伊莉莎白‧库伯勒-罗斯 (精神科医师)

  • 第一句话使用一系列的现在完成式:”those who have known defeat, (have) known suffering,… and have found their way out of the depths” 来描述 “the most beautiful people we have known” (我们所认识最美丽的人)。第二句 “These people have… that…” 结构上类似 “so… that…” 的句型,”that” 在句子里有连接的作用。如:The weather condition is so severe that we can’t risking going to the sea today.
