Every night when the wind blows and the faint orange light glows, I want to read your favorite bedtime story to you until you fall asleep. 夜风幽幽,伴着淡淡的橘色灯光,我想在每晚入睡之前为你读一个你最爱的童话。 【知识点拨】 句中有一个很美的表达:the faint orange light glows.本期就大家讲讲其中的faint和glow。 faint faint的意思是模糊的、微弱的,例如: Despite of so many difficulties she had gone through, a faint hope still flickered in her breast. 尽管历尽艰辛,她的心中还是闪烁着希望的微光。 She threw me a faint smile. 她对我微微一笑。(faint在形容微笑时,常含有“勉强”的意思) They said the painting was too faint to reproduce well. 他们说绘画颜色太浅了,复制不清楚。 faint还有“晕眩”的意思: She suddenly fell forward on to the table and fainted. 她突然向前栽倒在桌上,晕了过去。 glow glow的意思是“发光”,通常指比较微弱稳定的: The cigarette's red glow danced about in the darkness. 香烟的红色暗光在黑暗中闪烁。 Her hair floats like a banner in the breeze and in the earlymorning light she seems to glow against a background of dark trees. 她的头发在微风的吹拂下像旗帜一样飘扬,晨光中她在一片黑暗树木的映衬下仿佛泛出光晕。 也可以指皮肤的光彩: Her freckled skin glowed with health again. 她那有雀斑的皮肤又泛起健康的光彩。 glow还可以引申为较抽象的含义: Exercise will give you a glow of satisfaction at having achieved something. 体育锻炼会带给你一种有所成就的喜悦。(a glow of..., 表示某种积极、愉快的感情) The expectant mothers that Amy had encountered positively glowed with pride. 埃米遇见的孕妇们个个脸上都洋溢着幸福和自豪的光彩。
