 有的人,心思就写在脸上,透明的让你一眼看尽。有的人则不然,整日不露声色,单凭其一张面无表情的脸,你很难猜知他是高兴、还是伤心、抑或是愤懑……


英语中,老外管“不露声色”的人叫什么?呵!还是先想一想那些玩牌高手如何“表现”自己!
据说,玩儿“扑克牌戏(poker 1)”时,高手一般都不动声色。单看其无表情的面容,旁人很难猜知他手中的牌是好还是坏。于是,“poker face”(直译:玩扑克时玩牌者的表情)应运而生,常用来形容“城府深,善于隐藏感情,让人一眼望不到底的人”。
看下面两个例句:I never know whether my boss likes my work or not -- he is a real poker face.(我从不知道我老板是否认可我的工作,他是那种从不把心思表现在脸上的人。)
He kept his poker face, not even his eyelids 2 stirred.(他脸上毫无表情,甚至连眼皮也不眨一眨)

n.扑克;vt.烙制
  • He was cleared out in the poker game.他打扑克牌,把钱都输光了。
  • I'm old enough to play poker and do something with it.我打扑克是老手了,可以玩些花样。
n.眼睑( eyelid的名词复数 );眼睛也不眨一下;不露声色;面不改色
  • She was so tired, her eyelids were beginning to droop. 她太疲倦了,眼睑开始往下垂。
  • Her eyelids drooped as if she were on the verge of sleep. 她眼睑低垂好像快要睡着的样子。 来自《简明英汉词典》
