DIALOG 26

BARRY IS UNUSUAL

1--Have you met Barry?
2--I think so, but I don't remember what he looks
like.
1--He's a most unusual person.
2--What do you mean by unusual?
3--You'll understand when you see him.
2--You mean it's his physical appearance?
1--Not exactly. There's a certain way that he has of
speaking and choosing his words that's unique.
But that's not what I'm talking about.
3--That's part of it. But it goes beyond speech. I
guess it's what some people call "charisma 1".
2--Oh, that. Now I know what you're talking about.
I'm just full of it!
1--Ha,ha.Big joke!

===================================
注解:

1)most=very常用来加强语气。如:It's most kind of you!/
He thanked her for a most enjoyable party./It's most
dangerous to drive drunk.
2)There's a certain way...unique:此句中的两个that
从句都是way的定语从句。第一个从句说:he has a certain
way of speaking and choosing his words。第二个从句说
his way is unique.unique:独特的;独一无二的。
3)go beyond speech:难于用语言表达。类似的短语有:
beyond words/beyond expression/beyond description
4)charisma:超凡的魅力,神授的能力。



1 charisma
n.(大众爱戴的)领袖气质,魅力
  • He has enormous charisma. He is a giant of a man.他有超凡的个人魅力,是个伟人。
  • I don't have the charisma to pull a crowd this size.我没有那么大的魅力,能吸引这么多人。
