从古至今,恋爱有3个阶段。第一阶段是“寻求恋情”,第二阶段是“恋情带来的兴奋和激动”,第三阶段是“恋情的终止”。既然恋爱是我们生活中的一个重要部分,当然有很多表示关于爱情的俚语。下面,我们就继续来学习它们。
1. heavy petting

2. all over each other
释义:指两个人形影不离,黏黏乎乎
例句:Ron and Emily were all over each other during today's church service. (在今天的礼拜仪式中Rom和Emily一直形影不离,黏在一块儿。)

3. breadwinner
释义:靠工作养家糊口
例句:Susie is an attorney and Tom is a janitor. It is obvious which one is the breadwinner in that family. (Susie是律师,Tom是看门人。他们家里谁养家是摆着的事情了。)
