小老头看到山上有位美丽的女孩子招手,他以为女孩是陷入危险中,没想到正当小老头准备解救女孩子时,小老头摔倒了,而且还崴了脚,最后他才知道这位姑娘并没有陷入什么危险中,只是给朋友发出信号而已。看到这儿,我忍不住哈哈大笑,小老头乐于助人,但是最后却一不小心受伤啦。后来,令我万万没有想到的是小老头和女孩之间相差如此之大的年龄,就连思想程度,性格方面也有很大的差别,最后却head over heels in love, 真是没想到呀。前面章节提到小老头后来成为了单身汉,不知道他和女孩是由于性格的原因还是思想的原因而导致分手呢?


值得学习的表达:

1 She had blue, flashing eyes and freckled cheeks and smooth straw-colored hair

flashing---闪闪发光的, freckled---生雀斑的, straw-colored 稻草颜色的(原来黄色可以这样形容)(green-brown 棕绿色)

2 serious-looking; dangerous-looking; good=looking

3 She was a governess out of a job, with a little money saved up.

governess--家庭女教师,

 out of a job ---失业,让我联想到SHOE DOG里面用了很多的out of, 比如out of the blue突然地, out of business, I was out of time, out of money 

4 she believed that women ought to be admitted to the universities 

Be admitted to the university ---be admitted to hospital 送往医院

5 All her ideas and opinions she poured out to Chips  during those summer afternoons at Wasdale Head;

通过看书,才注意到idea和opinion的区别,idea:一般的想法,不一定出于理性,opinion是意见,通常出于理性。 pour out 倾听,畅谈

6 Within a week they were head over heels in love.

fall in love in 的替换head over heels in love, 而这种程度更高,爱得神魂颠倒。
