爱一个人,竟然可以只是因为爱上她的上唇绒毛⊙﹏⊙b汗。。。。
1,Normally
squeamish about this, I had
mysteriously been
charmed by it in her case, my desire
stubbornly deciding to collect there rather than around her warm smile or intelligent conversation. 平常对这一贯很厌恶,但这次我却奇迹般被迷倒。她亲切的微笑、金色的长发或聪慧的谈吐都不及这个特征更能激发我强烈的情感。

charm: 魅力,(使)着迷 【常用词组】①work like a charm:有神效 ②charm up:哄诱
2,When I discussed my attraction with friends, I struggled to suggest that it had to do with an
indefinable '
aura' - but I could not
disguise to myself that I had fallen in love with a hairy upper lip.

3,When I saw the woman again, someone must have suggested
electrolysis, for the
down was gone, and (despite her many qualities) my desire soon followed suit.
当我再次看见她时,肯定是谁建议她用了电烫除毛,她上唇的绒毛不见了,(尽管她有很多好的品质)我的热情也很快随之消退。

4,Long before such issues could have become meaningful, we'd arranged that I would
drop Chloe
home, but
nevertheless the
dilemmas of seduction remained a weighty presence in the car.
我早就想好要送克洛艾回家,但是一个两难的问题(吻别还是不吻别)沉重的压在心头。
