用法学习: 1. Ryan Phillippe and Paulina Slagter showed off their genetically blessed physiques on the beach on Monday. The couple are currently enjoying a romantic getaway 小憩, 假期 to Cancun, Mexico and so naturally spent some time frolicking in the waves together in their swimwear. Ryan, 40, displayed his toned body in some black swim shorts and look relaxed as he took a stroll with Paulina along the sand. Paulina, 24, looked slender in a mismatched string bikini and left her hair loose as she took a chilly dip in the ocean. The natural beauty 天生美女 brought a stylish wide-brimmed sun hat to shade her from the rays as the couple soaked up the scenery 风景, 景色 on a walk. Ryan has made no secret of how smitten he is with the pretty university student, telling Howard Stern in April : 'It is [serious]. I'm not opposed to [getting married again],'. But Mr Bucklitsch, who stood for Ukip in Wimbledon in May, initially remained unrepentant 毫不悔改的, 不知悔改的, 死不认错的. jam I. 夹到, 夹伤 [transitive] to injure part of your body because it gets pressed or squeezed between two hard things.

Queen's Guard soldier breaks formality for rare show of affection - Filming tourist captures heart-warming 暖心的, 温暖的 exchange: A Queen's Guard soldier has put the formalities on hold to affectionately adjust his comrade's bearskin hat in front of a filming tourist. The video shot on a mobile phone starts with one of the men approaching a fellow soldier standing guard 守卫着 outside a residence. The pair exchange salutes 互直径礼 but the scene then takes an informal turn 画风突变 with one of the guards carefully adjusting his colleague's hat as he stands completely still, keeping his hands on his rife. After shifting the angle of the hat and brushing the front section the soldier steps back and the pair salute each other again before parting. The veracity ( truth, or honesty. ) of the video cannot be verified 求证, 证实 with pranksters having staged Queen's Guard videos in the past. 4. 1D私生子: A mystery man bearing an uncanny ( strange and mysterious. Strange, and mysteriously unsettling (as if supernatural); weird. He bore an uncanny resemblance to the dead sailorHe predicted the winners of each race with uncanny accuracy. ) resemblance to two members of One Direction has caused a Twitter frenzy for fans who have christened 命名 him Ziam. Photographs have emerged of a man who looks like combination of 综合体 Liam Payne and former One Direction member Zayn Malik. The man, whose location is unknown, pictured topless showcasing a ripped physique provoked hysteria from One Direction fans on Twitter with one claiming they were 'dead' from seeing the lookalike. The hunk sports designer stubble and has muscular arms as well as washboard abs 搓衣板腹肌. The man has already been christened Ziam by fans who were in awe of his designer stubble and sculpted physique. The unknown man was seen at an outdoor event wearing shorts and a backwards baseball cap and now pictures of the shirtless hunk are sweeping the internet.

But another ominous tweeter wrote: 'Zayn and Liam's lovechild will be the second reason after global warming to end this world.' 5. 男孩和猩猩一起看手机照片: The man and the gorilla appear to bond as they gaze into the phone, before both recline into a corner to relax as they continue to look through images. slugfest 势均力敌的比赛, 棋逢对手的比赛, 胶着战 I. in baseball and boxing, a hard contest between opponents who are evenly matched. The Seahawks are currently playing at Soldier Field in Chicago in a game that promises to be a slugfest. II. A boxing match or fight marked by a heavy exchange of blows. The championship bout was a slugfest; both fighters were bloodied. III. a long and hard contest between two equal opponents in which an easy victory is impossible. The dramatic angle is that the companies are gearing up for what could be a slugfest. IV. A game or match in which heavy hits are exchanged. Like something out of a Rocky movie, two UFC fighters have gone toe-to-toe in an explosive two minute slugfest 重拳出击 that contained over 100 punches. Footage from the first round of the thrilling UFC 191 fight between Francisco Rivera and John Lineker shows the Brazilian Lineker back the American up into a corner 挤到墙角, 逼到墙角 of the octagon with a left hook. With Rivera very much on the defensive居守势, he decides attack is the best form of defence and lets his hands go as Lineker does likewise, resulting in a wild 10 seconds where fists fly 拳头乱飞, 拳头雨点般的. The Brazilian won by submission 认输 once the fight went to the ground after applying a guillotine( The guillotine choke, also known as Mae Hadaka Jime (前裸絞, "front naked choke"; compare to a rear naked choke) in judo, is a chokehold in martial arts and wrestling applied from in front of the opponent. The choke involves using the arms to encircle the opponent's neck in a fashion similar to a guillotine. ). Fightmetric recorded that the Rivera and Lineker exchanged a 100 strikes in the fight which lasted just over two minutes. 6. 行李箱: Also, my packing style 打包风格 has become more efficient over the years. As a travel writer, I've come to understand the wonders of quick-dry materials like those from Ex Officio's extraordinary Give-n-Go line that allow you to survive on, say, two pair of underwear for a month-long trip. Seriously. I did that. The new luggage needed to be just as rugged and ingenious. It took a week of reading reviews and test-driving my way through luggage stores, but I settled on 决定 Briggs and Riley's BRX line. Built for the "urban sophisticate gone global," these bags show class without begin stodgy(I. 太容易吃饱的. 太容易饱的. 涨肚的. stodgy food is heavy and makes you feel too full.

II. 尾大不掉的. 人浮于事的. 头头脑脑多的. a company or organization that is top-heavy has too many workers at higher levels and not enough at lower levels.), and they're engineered for 工艺设计 the super-platinum-class traveler. The whole thing is small enough to fit into an overhead compartment without a hitch 不费吹灰之力的, 不费劲的, 轻易的, 轻轻松松的. The secret is the compression system inside. An internal nylon panel lets you pack as much as you can before you lock it all down with pull straps. 7. In an era of hook-up apps and Ashley Madison it's quite comforting to see that storybook love is still alive and well in the form of this sweet elderly couple. Makonenn Sam couldn't resist posting footage of this adorable mature-aged couple's heart-warming reunion at an unknown arrivals lounge to his Facebook page, captioning the sweet video: "This made my heart melt." As it did ours, Sam. Since it was posted earlier today, the clip has remarkably racked up millions of views in just a few short hours, so it seems we're all suckers for true love. Ms Cass bequeathed (bequeath [bɪˈkwi:ð] 遗产赠与 to give someone money or property after you die by making a legal document called a will. bequeath something to someone: She bequeathed her jewellery to her niece. bequeath someone something: His uncle bequeathed him £6,000.) the property to Mr Smith when she died in 1994.

Fleischers statement was the strongest to date by the Bush administration about who may be behind the attacks, and it contradicted earlier speculation that the anthrax was the work of foreign terrorists. An FBI profile describes the possible culprit as a male loner with a scientific background.

 'I haven't been in a relationship for a while': Justin Bieber says he'll remain single as he waits for his heart to 'heal' after splitting from Selena Gomez: As one of the world's most famous faces, Justin Bieber could have his pick of any woman he wants - but the Canadian hit-maker seems to be still pining over 念念不忘, 恋恋不舍, 不舍得, 忘不掉, 抛不开, 丢不开 ( pine over/after/for someone or something 'Rick isn't pining over her and is spending time with another girl.' To pine over someone is to miss them dreadfully with feelings of great sadness. to long for or grieve for someone or something. Bob pined after Doris for weeks after she left. Dan is still pining for his lost dog. There is no point in pining over Claire. "When my dog had to be put to sleep, I pined over her for more than a year." ) his ex-girlfriend, Selena Gomez. Talking to KIIS 1065's Kyle And Jackie O Show on Tuesday morning as he promoted his visit Down Under at the end of the month, the Baby singer said that he has been keeping himself to himself as heartbreak has become too much for him to bear. 'I haven't been in a relationship for a while, I'm chilling and just hanging out. Just being by myself,' he told Kyle Sandilands and Jackie 'O' Henderson. 'I am a relationship type of guy, I love to be in love and I love cuddling and I love all of that kind of stuff but I got my heart broken and so I'm just going to let that heal up 痊愈, 疗伤, 治愈. 'I had a few beers guys, maybe I'm talking too openly?' the 21-year-old added. Justin wouldn't say if was talking about his ex Selena per se, but she has been his only official girlfriend of late. The pair have been on-again off-again a number of times, but their major break-up came around October last year. He also cleared up 澄清 if he was trying to send his ex a subtle message with in his new music video for What Do You Mean? During a skate park scene 在...一幕里 at the end of the video, the name Selena is written in graffiti on the wall alongside the words 'hope' and 'love'. But he told the radio duo: 'That wasn't me who did that.' Justin, had been caught up with the law in recent times but says he has also moved on from his old group of pals. 'I kind of distanced myself from a lot of friends and I'm doing a lot of stuff by myself recently,' he added. He said it was all a phase 生命中的一个阶段 but has moved on now: 'I want to enjoy right now, I don't want to keep apologising.' Justin has granted 250 wishes for children through the Make-A-Wish Foundation and says it's one of his favourite things to do adding he loves being around children because they never want anything from and allow him to be himself. 'I think that's a lot of the misconception that they had about Michael Jackson. He wanted to be around kids because they are just innocent and he never wanted anything from them. 'I don't know if I believe all the stuff going on about Michael but that's just my opinion但那只是我个人的看法.'  

 歌词深意: In Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off," which I consider a perfect song, there's a giggle 格格笑 she releases between the lines "I go on too many dates" and "But I can't make 'em stay." Driving around suburban St. Louis, listening to the radio, I've wondered many times if Swift includes this giggle—which acts as a vocal eye roll 翻白眼, or maybe a middle finger, to those whose judgmental comments she's parroting ( to copy or repeat what someone says without thinking about it or understanding it properly. The children were obviously just parroting what they'd been told.)—during her live performances. Surely, I thought, the temptation to include the giggle would be diminished by the cumulative evidence, as she performed show after show on her "1989" World Tour (which started in May and is still going), of the giggle's utter lack of spontaneity. As a forty-year-old woman with unapologetically mainstream musical tastes, I've followed Swift's career with increasing interest. From my vantage point, the defining aspects of her identity seem to be—surprise!—not her romantic partners but rather her appetite for hard work (that is, her ambition); her savvy 聪明地 and apparently early-adopting use of social media; and the enjoyable accessibility of her art, with songs that alternate between deceptive simplicity 貌似简单, 欺骗性的 and actual simplicity. Also, she's articulate in interviews, she's become a vocal proponent of feminism, and apparently she's friends with Lorde (and a bunch of other glamorous female singers, models, and actresses in their twenties). In June, when Swift wrote an open letter, on Tumblr, to Apple (titled "To Apple, Love Taylor"), criticizing the company's decision not to pay artists during users' free three-month trials of its music-streaming service, Apple reversed its policy the next day. "I unsarcastically love that Taylor Swift has acquired enormous economic & cultural power by being very good at singing about her feelings," Swift wore perilously high heels and an array of skimpy outfits as her image was reflected not only on large screens on either side of the stage but also on the single biggest screen that I've seen in my life, which, curiously, faced the backs of most of the crowd and the front of only Swift herself, lending it a mirror-above-the-bed quality of self-interest 利己主义 ( one's personal interest or advantage, especially when pursued without regard for others. interest in yourself and how to gain advantages for yourself, often without considering other people. decisions motivated solely by self-interest. ) notable 醒目的, 显眼的 even in these highly narcissistic times. Interspersed 穿插其间的 with songs, Swift delivered monologues to us about the specialness of the night, how much she loves her fans, and how uncool she's always felt. Tonally 语气上, these fell somewhere between the speeches of a dim high-school student and a tipsy bridesmaid. Sometimes, during a set or costume change, the screens showed videos asking Swift-related trivia or featuring testimonials from her coterie of famous girlfriends about the fun that they have and the enormous quantities of food they like to consume, which seemed a preëmptive 此地无银三百两的, 先发制人的,  rebuttal 反驳 to anyone noting Swift's thinness. Of the three people I attended the show with—in addition to Annie, my sister Jo and my brother-in-law Thad, both of whom are photographers—I'm confident that I was there the least anthropologically ( anthropology the study of human societies, customs, and beliefs. Someone who studies anthropology is called an anthropologist. anthropologically speaking: It means speaking about the science that deals with the origins, physical and cultural development, biological characteristics, and social customs and beliefs of humankind. ) and the most earnestly. Not that I take pride in this, but I could actually answer the trivia questions about, say, Swift's cats. And I swear that I was ready to enjoy myself—to sing along to "I Knew You Were Trouble" while feeling cheerfully silly about my own middle-aged dorkiness ( dork I. n. the penis. (Usually objectionable.) Paul told a joke about a dork, but everybody just sat there and looked straight ahead. II. n. a jerk; a strange person. (see also megadork.) Ye gods, Sally! You are a dork! dork off in. to waste time; to goof off. The whole class was dorking off and the teacher got furious.). Instead, the cognitive dissonance induced by the show bewildered me: Why was Swift, a shrewd businesswoman, blathering ( blather 啰哩啰嗦, 唠唠叨叨 to talk for a long time about something that is boring or not important. ) on so cheesily 厚脸皮的, 厚颜无耻的( cheesy I. 过于夸张的, 过于戏剧化的. 过于做作的. (informal) Overdramatic, excessively emotional or clichéd, trite, contrived. a cheesy song; a cheesy movie. II. 假笑. (of a smile or grin) Exaggerated and likely to be forced or insincere.)? If she were trying to speak in terms understandable to the youngest members of her audience, many of whom looked to be in grade school, then why was she wearing a garter belt and showing those B.D.S.M. videos? When she floated above the audience in her high, high heels on that lighted dock, facing a stadium of sixty-eight thousand people, how could she feel anything except either a messiah complex( A messiah complex 英雄情结, 济世救人的情, 悲天悯人的情结 (also known as the Christ complex or savior complex) is a state of mind in which an individual holds a belief that they are, or are destined to become, a savior. ) or profound loneliness? Later that night, I said to my husband, "I thought of her as a singer-songwriter." And my husband, who has never voluntarily listened to a single word escaping Taylor Swift's mouth, laughed. "Singer-songwriters don't perform in stadiums," he said. But before all that, before my buzz-killing ( buzzkill ‎I. Something or someone that spoils an otherwise enjoyable event. II. A person who attends a social event and occupies his or her time with activities other than those offered at the event. ) realization that my admiration for Swift should not have been confused with a wish to see her live—before, in fact, the concert even started—I felt the sweetness and promise of what she offers. It was a lovely summer evening, and among the tailgaters ( tailgate party A celebration, held in a parking lot, with picnic food served out of the back of automobiles or pickup trucks. ) there was a preponderance ( [prɪˈpond(ə)rəns] most of the people or things in a group. A preponderance of the students on the course came from overseas.) of tweens and mother-daughter duos. Their giddy anticipation of the night ahead emanated ( emanate [ˈeməneɪt] I. [intransitive] to come from a particular place. emanate from: She could hear raised voices emanating from her parents' room. Wonderful smells emanated from the kitchen. II. [intransitive/transitive] if you emanate a lot of a quality or feeling 流露出来, 不自觉的显露出来, or if it emanates from you, you show it without expressing it in words. emanate from: A sense of joy emanated from him. ) from them as they snacked on fruit and cheese, beaded, and drew posters. In fact, the tailgaters were so winning that, the next night, my sister went back to photograph them. One mom told Jo that she'd bought her tickets eight months prior and given them to her daughter for Christmas. They'd screen-printed T-shirts at their local mall, and, after driving two hours to the concert, they were sitting on the asphalt by their car applying beads to the shirts' tassels. On both nights, many audience members wore shirts that bore the phrase "Taylor Swift's #1 Fan." I'm not sorry that I went to the show, even if that isn't an article of clothing, or a title, I'll be fighting anyone for.
