胡子工程 long-drawn-out project (a project which takes so long that young workers become bearded)
leave someone alone ! 不干涉; 听其自然
A: Isn't it about time Jane visited her hairdresser? Her bangs are hanging all over her face now.
A: Jane 该去见她的美发师了吧! 她的浏海都(长到)垂到脸上了。
B: Leave her alone. Maybe she likes to have her eyes covered so she doesn't have to see your face.
B: 妳管她! 也许她希望(头发长到)把眼睛盖住, 好看不见妳的脸啊!
- "leave me alone"有要求别人「不要管」的意思。"hairdresser" 是花时间整理你头发的「美发师」; "barber" 则是收费低廉, 5分钟就把你的头发剪好送出门的「理发师」。
down-to-earth 实在的
A: I had a chance to chat with Dr. Lee last time. I was totally surprised to find out that a famous person like him can be so down-to-earth.
A: 我上次有機會跟 Dr. Lee 閒聊。 我很驚訝地發現一個像他這樣有名氣的人竟然可以這樣的真實純樸。

sweet 替人设想的
A: I knew you couldn't make it last night so I've got some of the food from the party saved up for you.
A: 我知道你昨晚不能来, 所以我把聚会吃的东西留了一些起来给你。
B: You did? Oh! That's so sweet of you, Carol.
B: 真的啊? Carol, 妳真是太好了!
- 形容一个人的心地好的字眼常用的有像"nice"、"kind"等等。

就是来形容这个人的个性中有喜欢替别人设想的特质。
sell-out 出卖人家的人

B: Man, I don't even know what to say. He really blew me away, too.
B: 唉, 我都不知道该说什么才好。 他也真是让我始料未及。
- 这里的"sell-out"是"selling a person out"的名词, 可以指「出卖人家的人」或是「出卖人的行为」。
上面的对话里, 还有另外一个我们之前也有看过的词语是"blow one away" (blew one away 的原在式)。
这里的"blow one away"应该可以翻作我们口语里面讲的「被打败的感觉」。
因为没有想到过对方会是那样子的人, 当事情发生了才有一种「怎么可能!」的震撼和惊讶。
其实"blow one away"也可以说是形容某人的表现太过优异, 令人在佩服之外感到十分的震撼。
drama queen 喜欢小题大作的人
A: He is not home. Where could he be so late at night? I knew it. I knew something was wrong. He must be out messing around.

B: Oh! Stop being such a drama queen, would you? You don't know what's going on. Maybe he's asleep.
B: 噢, 妳能不能不要这样小题大作呢? 妳并不知道事情是怎么回事啊? 搞不好他睡着了呢?
- "drama queen" (戏剧女王)是用来形容人对一件可能在其它人眼里看来不是很大的事反应夸张而激烈, 。
这个词一般说来是用在女孩子的身上的。
