   Mall rat 血拼族


  Mall就是购物中心,rat就是老鼠。Mall rat当然并非真的指一种老鼠,它是指年轻人像老鼠那样在mall里钻来钻去。
  一到周末,许多年轻人都会去mall买东西。有的人也不见得想买什么,他们只是愿意呆在商场消磨时间。人们把经常到mall去逛的年轻人叫做:mall rat。它是一个俚语用法,指的是 a young person who loiters about shopping malls,即指那些老喜欢到购物中心去逛的年轻人。
  例句:Hey, there's always something to do there for us mall rats. At least a dozen fast food places where we can buy a burger, a slice of pizza, ice cream--whatever, ten different movie theaters, and a whole lot of people to watch, you know? I can spend the whole day there, you know?
  嗨,对我们爱逛购物中心的人来说,那儿总是有好玩的事的。那儿至少有十几个快餐店,我们可以在那里买汉堡包,意大利饼,冰淇淋等,什么都有。那儿还有十个电影院,放映不同的电影。你还可以看到好多人,你知道吗?我可以在那里玩上一整天。
  又如:Sure, I used to be a typical mall rat hanging around watching the crowds, especially the girls. But then I went out for basketball, made the team and I don't have time to waste anymore!
  当然了,我过去是个典型的逛购物中心狂,喜欢在那里观看来来往往的人,特别是女孩子。可是,后来我去打篮球,而且进了球队,这样我就没法再浪费时间了.
