One in the eye 惨败
The eye has six muscles which control its movement. Photo: BBC 今日小常识Can you tell when someone is lying by looking at their eyes? Many psychologists think when a person looks up to their right they are likely to be telling a lie and when they look quickly up to their left they are being honest. But researchers from Edinburgh University and Hertfordshire University say there is no scientific evidence for this. 你是否能透过他人的眼神看出他在说谎话？很多心理学家认为当一个人眼睛向右上方看时更可能说谎话，而当眼神在快速的向左上方看时是诚实的。但是来自英国爱丁堡大学和赫特福德大学的研究人员说此观点没有任何科学依据。 今日短语 如果一件事对某人来说是 one in the eye, 意思就是此人对事情的结果感到无比失望或受到了严重打击，不过你却对这样的结果感到高兴。 例句 I got the job! That's one in the eye for John - I've never liked him and I was sure he would get the position. Ha! Our winning the championship was one in the eye for our rival team - they are always boasting about their skills. 请注意 短语 see eye to eye 的意思是看法、意见完全一致。 I like my new boss: we see eye to eye on how to run the department.
