Jessica: Fangfang, how was your date last night? I heard he was quite a looker!

英语口语:“及时行乐”该怎么说

FF: 唉,怎么说呢……这男生长得是不错,可是话不投机! 我说我爱游泳,他说小心被淹,我说我爱旅游,他说旅游就是花钱买罪受!

Jessica: Really? He's a Debbie downer!

FF: Debbie? 他不叫Debbie.

Jessica: No, Debbie downer refers to those who are so negative and always bring down the mood of other people.

FF: 我明白了,说一个人特消极,老说丧气话打击别人,就可以用Debbie downer. My date from last night was such a Debbie downer that I went home with a heavy heart!

Jessica: That was no fun! We shouldn't let a Debbie downer ruin our high spirits.

FF: 就是的`! 我还是喜欢积极向上,阳光型的! 这种人用美语又怎么说呢?

Jessica: You can say he has a sunny personality.

FF: 嗯! I want to go out with a man who has a sunny personality. He can cheer me up when I'm moody.

Jessica: I used to date a guy like that! He is the most positive person I've ever known and he always seems so contend.

FF: 可以想像。对人生要求不多,只要及时行乐,这就是我的理想男友的标准! 那及时行乐又怎么说呢?

Jessica: We say "eat, drink and be merry."

FF: Eat, drink and be merry. 吃,喝,快快乐乐。Gosh! This is my motto in life!

Jessica: It is mine, too!

FF: 今天我们学了:阴沉丧气的人是Debbie downer, 阳光向上的性格是sunny personality, 及时行乐则是to eat, drink and be merry.
