第一百六十三句
不管是封建时代的买卖婚姻,还是近代的自由恋爱,都曾流传一个大家心照不宣的择偶法则:聪明的女人定要用年轻和美貌去博一个或比自己经济状况好的郎君,而且最 好这个男人又老又丑,会一辈子因为“拾到宝”而倍感幸运。陋室明娟嫁给豪门巨富就算是这个法则的一种极端实践。但在女性已经获得相当大的经济自由的当下,这个求偶法则已然发生变化。线上相亲网站的数据显示,不管男女都会主动去搭讪综合吸引力(同时包括对外貌、性格和经济社会条件的考量)评分高于自己的异性,其中男性的概率是26%,而女性的是23%。也就是说,在找对象这件事上,男人也愿意找个比自己强的。
Throughout the history of dating, it’s been a truth universally acknowledged that a smart woman trades up socioeconomically but down when it comes to youth and looks – to ensure that the gentleman in question remains forever “grateful” to secure such a “prize”.
思考题:
An intelligent woman is more likely to find a “grateful” man compared with a good-looking woman.
词汇突破:
1. universally 普遍地
2. acknowledge 认可
3. ensure 确保
4. grateful 心存感激的
5. desirable 令人满意的
6.trade up 就高消费/交易/卖次买好
7.trade down 就低消费/交易
8. in question = 相关的
the gentleman in question=the gentleman concerned
切分:
1.Throughout the history of dating,
2.it’s been a truth universally acknowledged that…
3.a smart woman trades up socioeconomically
4.but down when it comes to youth and looks
5.to ensure that…
6.the gentleman in question remains forever “grateful” to secure such a “prize”
参考译文:聪明的女人会在经济社会方面就高,但在年纪和外表上则就低,这样她的对象就会因为获得如此的“奖励”(恩赐)而一直“心存感激”。综观整个求偶史,这是一个被普遍认可的真理。
(也就是:聪明的女人会找一个比自己社会地位高,经济条件好,但长相不如自己的男性。)
思考题:
An intelligent woman is more likely to find a “grateful” man compared with a good-looking woman.
这个比较是不存在的!所以是错误的!你们很厉害! 祝贺!感谢点赞!
附加一句:
The study, based on data from a free online dating site, also reveals that while men become more desirable as they age – peaking at 50 years old – women are deemed steadily less so.
切分:
1.The study…also reveals that…
2.based on data from a free online dating site
3.while men become more desirable as they age
4.peaking at 50 years old
5.women are deemed steadily less so
参考译文:
这项基于免费线上交友网站的研究同时显示,男性越年长越有吸引力(在50岁时达到顶峰),同时女性的吸引力则随年龄稳定下滑。
(我不同意这句话,不管男女只要好好自我管理,都能越活越精彩!)
还有一句:
Women can afford to be much more aspirational than they are.
明天的句子:
It is not surprising that generalizations about millennials—or about any generation — largely collapse under scrutiny. It is easy to confuse an observation about people of a given age with observations about a given generation. By virtue of their stage in life, they have particular hopes, worries, challenges and opportunities—all worthy of concern and study. The place to start is the assumption that the millennial generation are much like the people who came before them.
思考题:
What can we learn from the text?
(A) The traits of millennials can be attributable to the character of certain age.
(B) Generalizations about millennials largely collapses due to age difference.
(C) There is no difference between the millennial generation and older ones.
(D) Millennials have particular traits different from other generations.
