今天我们来分享与眼睛有关的习语

★eye candy：
Something or someone that is pleasing to look at can be described as eye candy. Eye candy is attractive but lacks depth; a slang expression for something that is superficially eye-catching.

eye candy可用来比喻东西或人很养眼。它指“看起来很有吸引力，但却缺乏深度的东西”，是形容某物华而不实、虚有其表的俚语表达。如：
There is a lot of eye candy on the new company website, but not much detailed information about the products.
在新的公司网站上有很多精彩的内容，却没有产品的详细信息。

★eye teeth ：

  We have two eye teeth in the top jaw and two similar in the bottom. They are called eye teeth because of their position under the eye. They are pointed and conical and are also known as canine teeth; Dracula’s are particularly pronounced; the famous vampire’s teeth are often referred to as fangs.
我们上下颌各有两个犬牙。它们由于在眼睛之下而被称为eye teeth。犬牙很尖利，呈锥形，又名canine teeth。Dracula的犬牙尤为明显，这个著名吸血鬼的牙齿也经常被称为fangs。

★ Beauty is in the eye of the beholder：
“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder” is a very old saying, going all the way back to Greece in the 3rd century BC. This means that what people find beautiful is very subjective and varies according to a person’s particular taste.
“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder”是一个古老的说法，源于公元前三世纪的希腊。这个短语的意思是美是一种主观印象，因各人品味相异而有所不同。

★ to be in the public eye   受到公众的注意。
Some people, like politicians or celebrities, are frequently seen in public or in the media; they are said to be in the public eye. The opposite is, naturally enough, “to be out of the public eye.”
有些人，如政客或者名人，经常在公众面前或者媒体中露面，就可以用to be in the public eye形容；相反的意思自然就用to be out of the public eye表达。如：
Ever since she starred in a film with Clint Eastwood, Jackie Brown has been in the public eye.
自从与克林特•伊斯特伍德一起主演了一部电影，杰克•布朗受到了公众的注意。
