妙语佳句，活学活用
1. Starve
这个词本身的词义是“饿死，使饿死”，但在口语中用的时候非常生动，最容易见到的就是 Are you hungry? Im starving. 之类的表达。
除此之外，在别的例子中，它的意思有所差异：
Shes lonely, and starving for companionship. 她非常寂寞，渴望友谊。这里的意思就是“由于缺少某物而困苦”。
再如：We all starve for news. 大家都渴望得到消息。
2. Grab a quick bite
这是美国速食文化背景下产生的一个句子，本义是：非常快的吃几口。目前大家在用的时候更多的是说“随意吃点”或者“简单吃点”。
大家也说 grab a bite to eat，意思同样是表示“找个饭店随意吃点”，特别是指速食餐厅。
3. Its no big deal
这个句子大伙应该相对比较熟知，意思是“没什么大不了的”。
如： Its no big deal that his car is more expensive than mine.
不过假如大家用一定形式 big deal 的时候，意思就相反了。如：
So they live in a mansion？Big deal! 他们住在大厦里喽？了不起！
Ive decided that I should read the magazine and see whats the big deal. 我决定看看杂志，看看有哪些大不了的事。
4. make out
When people make out, they often also hug and press their bodies against each other. Making out is an American slang. After a period of prolonged kissing, two people may choose a more sexual form of making out, known as necking.
Make out 是一个意思不少的词组，但在影片的这个片段，它的意思就是俚语中的“亲吻，亲热”。这个词组在电影或电视剧中时有出现，期望大伙能了解它的意思。
我观之我见
多年前，一部惊心动魄的《生死时速》收获了基努·里维斯与桑德拉·布洛克这对经典的银幕情侣。之后，一个成了《骇客帝国》的救世主，而另一个则继续演绎傻大姐的角色，两人毫无交集。十二年后，这部《触不到的男女朋友》促成了两人的再度合作。不过当年的青春少年早已不再，好在两人演绎的都是建筑师，大夫一类的社会精英阶层，年龄总算可以暂时忽视不计。在影片中，里维斯与布洛克的对手戏并不多，基本都是独角戏，这颇为考验演技。对里维斯来讲，困难程度不大，至少可以用扮酷来解决角色的孤独问题。自言没看过原版影片的里维斯，表演上没参照物，重压相对降低，确实给影迷带来肯定的惊喜。而对一向不拘小节的布洛克来讲，这个柔情角色有点犯难。不过她没扮嫩，甚至还剪短头发，以成熟扮相，力求演绎出成御姐人的很态恋爱。其实，这部影片对两人来讲，都不啻于是一次转型良机，长久在动作戏中打拼的里维斯，挑战了以讲述细腻情感为主的文戏；而一向长于喜剧的布洛克，变身为淑女。至于两人是不是重现了当年的默契，这就留给观众来评说了。
