On their date, the couple might eat a meal together at a restaurant. If the man is really hungry, his eyes might be bigger than his stomach. He might order more food than he can eat. When his food arrives at the table, his eyes might pop out. He might be very surprised by the amount of food provided. He might not even believe his own eyes. If fact, all eyes would be watching him if he ate all the food. This might even cause raised eyebrows. People might look at the man with disapproval.
约会时，这对男女可能会在餐馆一起吃饭。如果这名男教师非常饥饿，他可能眼大肚子小(eyes might be bigger than his stomach)，点了很多自己吃不完的食物。当服务员把食物送来时，看到如此多的食物，他可能非常眼睛都快瞪出来了(his eyes might pop out)。他可能被这么多的食物吓着了，甚至于不相信自己的眼睛。实际上，如果他吃完所有食物，所有人(all eyes)都会盯着他看，甚至可能会使人膛目结舌(raised eyebrows)。人们可能会不敢置信地看着他。
During their dinner, the couple might discuss many things. _______________________________________________ For example, they might agree that every crime or injury should be punished. That is, they firmly believe in the idea of an eye for an eye. They might also agree that it is wrong to pull the wool over a person's eyes. This means to try to trick a person by making him believe something that is false. But the man and woman do not believe in the evil eye, that a person can harm you by looking at you.
在用餐期间，这对男女可能会讨论很多事情。例如，他们可能同意，每一宗罪行或伤害都应该受到惩罚。也就是说，他们坚决同意以牙还牙（eye for an eye）。他们可能还同意，欺骗别人(pull the wool over a person’s eyes)是不对的，但是他们都不相信恶毒的眼光(evil eye)，也就是说一个人看你一眼就能伤害到你。
