Jessica在北京學中文，她的中國朋友要是遇到了不知道用美語怎麽說的詞，就會來請教她。今天是怡茹要問的：大眾情人。
Jessica：Hey 怡茹, what's your plan for the weekend?
YR: 我原來大學的同學組了個樂隊，今晚在酒吧表演，怎麽樣？要不要一起來？
Jessica: 那，得看樂隊成員帥不帥呀?
YR: 那你一定得來! 我這些同學都是大學裏的校草級人物，主唱更是人帥脾氣好，大學的時候簡直是大眾情人啊!
Jessica: Ha! Sounds like a lady killer to me!
YR: Lady killer? 女性...殺手?
Jessica: No! A lady killer refers to a man who's extremely charming and women just throw themselves at him. These guys are usually very good-looking.
YR: 這簡直就是我那個同學的寫照！Every girl dreamt of dating him in college. He's such a lady killer! 盡管如此，他人卻特別隨和，一點也不難伺候! 不像我男朋友，動不動就不高興，我簡直受夠了!
Jessica: Hmm, I didn't know that your boyfriend is a high-maintenance guy.
YR: High maintenance? 高級維修?我倒不用維修我男朋友...
Jessica: Haha Yiru, when you say someone is high-maintenance, it means he or she is really hard to satisfy.
YR: 哦，我懂了，就是難伺候！My boyfriend is definitely high-maintenance. He's constantly complaining, and can easily get upset!
Jessica: I'm sorry Yiru. You know what? Maybe you will have a shot with that lady killer classmate.
YR: 我？我可配不上他。對了，這個“配不上”用美語怎麽說？
Jessica: You can say A is out of B's league. 意思就是A配不上B。But Yiru, a nice girl like you deserves someone awesome! I don't think any guy is out of YOUR league!
YR: 嗬嗬，謝謝你 Jessica! 那你晚上跟我一起來哦!
Jessica: Sure. I'll go with you. Before we get ready for the party, tell me what you've learned today!
YR: 第一，大眾情人叫做 lady killer;
第二，形容某人難伺候可以用 high-maintenance;
第三，配不上，叫做 out of someone's league!
