经典表白的英文句子shmily 用英语求婚如何看到标题可能会有人觉得奇怪,不是经典表白的英文句吗?怎么只有一个单词shmily。如果你不知道这个词,没有关系。静下来听我讲几个故事你就明白了其中的意义。
第一个故事来自美国,一个小朋友在无意之间发现了自己祖父和祖母之间的小秘密。祖父母结婚已经50多年却一直在玩一个小小的游戏,就是对方轮换着在房间的各个角落留下shmily的单词,年复一年。
小朋友可以在浴室镜子上、枕头下的小纸条上、壁炉布满灰尘的台面上,甚至一卷卫生纸上看见这个单词的痕迹。当然,小朋友根本不知道这是什么意思。直到有一天,祖母得了癌症。虽然祖父一直悉心照顾,可祖母还是去世了。在葬礼上,祖父饱含着泪水轻轻趴在祖母的耳边了一句See how much I love you。已经长大成人也饱受过爱情滋味的小朋友,深深的被震撼到了。原来,自己搞不懂含义的小游戏,是把握每一个机会向对方表白。
第二个故事来自中国,有一对恋人,他们很相爱,男孩为了赚更多的钱娶女孩回家,决定出国务工,一走就是三年。临走时,男孩忍不住问女孩愿不愿意等他回来。女孩只是轻轻一笑递给他一张纸条,上面写着shmily,没有回答。男孩以为是女孩要放弃,所以他回国后再也没有去找那个女孩。
直到有一次,他们又在这个城市中偶遇了,偶然问起女孩那个单词。才知道那是你知道我有多爱你的意思。其实女孩一直在默默的等待,只不过再也没有他的消息,幸好那次偶遇,要不然两个人转身也许就再没有在一起的机会。
看着两个小故事,大家可以发现,表白的英文句子不一定非得是一句话,还可以是首字母。当然,表白,不是只有一个句子那么简单。尤其求婚,虽说用英语求婚完全合适,可是只有英语就不合适了。选择一生只送一人的钻戒钻戒,为他送上以我之名,冠你指间;一生相伴,一世相随的承诺会让表白更显丰富。
每次说起一生的相守,说起爱情的感动,总能想到这表白的英语句子See how much I love you,你知道我有多爱你。相爱不易,能让对方能懂得自己的爱,更是不易。
英语表白的句子1、我已经有喜欢的人了。

The reason I live now is to be able to say to you right now, I love you, I will protect you forever
53、初见倾心,再见痴心,终日费心,欲得芳心,煞费苦心,想得催心,难道你心,不懂我心!

你要的是克林顿昨天在美国民主党代表大会上的讲话?下面是你要的那部分:
In the spring of 1971,I met a girl The first time I saw her, we were, appropriately enough, in aclass on political and civil rights She had thick blond hair, big glassesWore no makeup And she exuded this strength of self-possession I found magnetic
After the class, Ifollowed her out, intending to introduce myself I got close enough to touchher back, but I couldn't do it Somehow, I knew this would not be just anothertap on the shoulder, that I might be starting something I couldn't stop I saw herseveral more times the next few days but still didn't speak to her Then onenight in the law library talking to a classmate who wanted me to join the YaleLaw Journal, he said it would guarantee me a job at a big firm or a clerkshipwith a federal judge I really wasn’t interested — I just wanted to go home toArkansas
Then I saw the girlagain, standing at the opposite end of that long room Finally, she was staringback at me So I watched her She closed her book, put it down, and startedwalking toward me She walked the whole length of the library, came up to me,and said, "Look, if you are going to keep staring at me, we at least oughtto know each other's name I'm Hillary Rodham, who are you" I was soimpressed and surprised that, whether you believe it or not, momentarily, I wasspeechless
Finally, I sort ofblurted out my name and we exchanged a few words, and she went away Well, Ididn't join the Law Review, but I did leave that library with a whole new goalin mind A couple days later, I saw her again, wearing a long, white, floweryskirt, and I went up to her and she said she was going to register for classesfor the next term I said I would go too
We stood in line andtalked — you had to do that to register back then I thought I was doing prettywell until we got to the front of the line and the registrar looked up andsaid, "Bill, what are you doing here You registered this morning"
I turned red and shelaughed that big laugh of hers and I thought, well, heck, since my cover hasbeen blown, I asked her to take a walk down to the art museum We have beenwalking, and talking, and laughing together ever since
And we have done it ingood times, through joy and heartbreak We cried together this morning on thenews that our good friend and a lot of your good friend, Mark Weiner, passedaway early this morning We built up a lifetime of memories After the firstmonth and that first walk, I drove her home to Park Ridge, Illinois, to meether family and see the town where she grew up, a perfect example of post-WorldWar II middle-class America Street after street of nice houses, great schools,good parks, a big public swimming pool And almost all white
I really liked herfamily, her crusty, conservative father, her rambunctious brothers, allextolling the virtue of rooting for the bears and the cubs And for the peopleof Illinois here, they even told me what waiting for next year meant — could benext year, guys
Now, her mother wasdifferent She was more liberal than the boys She had a childhood that mademine look like a piece of cake She was easy to underestimate with her softmanner and she reminded me all over again of the truth of that old saying thatyou should never judge a book by its cover Knowing her was one of the greatestgifts Hillary ever gave me
I learned that Hillarygot her introduction to social justice through her Methodist youth minister,Don Jones He took her downtown to Chicago to hear Martin Luther King Jr speakand he remained her friend for the rest of his life This will be the onlycampaign of hers he ever missed
When she got tocollege, her opposition to the Vietnam War compelled her to change parties andbecome a Democrat And then between college and law school, on a total lark,she went alone to Alaska and spent time sliming fish
More to the point, bythe time I met her she had already been involved in the law school's legalservices project and she had been influenced by Marian Wright Edelman She tooka summer internship interviewing workers in migrant camps for Sen WalterMondale’s subcommittee She had also begun working in the Yale New Havenhospital to develop procedures to handle suspected child abuse cases
She got so involved inchildren's issues that she actually took an extra year in law school working atthe child studies center to learn what more could be done to improve the livesand futures of poor children She was already determined to figure out how tomake things better
Hillary opened my eyesto a whole new world of public service by private citizens In the summer of1972, she went to Dothan, Alabama, to visit one of those segregated academiesthat enrolled over a half a million white kids in the South The only way theeconomics worked was if they claimed federal tax exemptions to which they werenot legally entitled She got sent to prove they weren't
So she sauntered intoone of these academies all by herself, pretending to be a housewife that justmoved to town and needed to find a school for her son And they exchangepleasantries and finally, she said, "Look, let's get to the bottom lineIf I enroll my son in this school, will he be in a segregated school Yes orno" And the guy said "Absolutely" She had him I’ve seen it athousand times since
And she went back andher encounter was part of a report that gave Marian Wright Edelman the forcethey needed to keep working to get the Nixon administration to take those taxexemptions away and give our kids access to an equal education
Then she went down toSouth Texas, where she met one of the nicest fellows I ever met, the wonderfulunion leader Franklin Garcia, and he helped her register Mexican-Americanvoters I think some of them are still around to vote for her in 2016 Andthen, in our last year in law school, Hillary kept up this work She went toSouth Carolina to see why so many young African-American boys — I mean, youngteenagers — were being jailed for years with adults in men's prisons She fileda report on that, which led to some changes too Always making things better
Meanwhile, let's getback to business I was trying to convince her to marry me I first proposed toher on a trip to Great Britain, the first time she'd ever been overseas Wewere on the shoreline of this wonderful lake, Lake Ennerdale I asked her tomarry me and she said, "I can't do it"
So in 1974, I wenthome to teach in law school and Hillary moved to Massachusetts to keep workingon children's issues This time, trying to figure out why so many kids countedin the census weren't enrolled in school
She found one of themsitting alone on her porch in a wheelchair Once more, she filed a report aboutthese kids and that helped influence ultimately the Congress to adopt theproposition that children with disabilities, physical or otherwise, should haveequal access to public education You saw the result of that last night whenAnastasia Somoza talked She never made fun of people with disabilities Shetried to empower them based on their abilities
Meanwhile, I was stilltrying to get her to marry me The second time I asked, I tried a differenttactic I said, "I really want you to marry me, but you shouldn't doit" She smiled and looked at me like what is this boy up to She said,"That is not a very good sales pitch" I said, "I know but it'strue" And I meant it It was true I said, "I know most of the youngDemocrats our age who want to go into politics, they mean well and they speakwell, but none of them is as good as you are at actually doing things to makepositive changes in people's lives"
So I suggested she gohome to Illinois or move to New York and look for a chance to run for officeShe laughed and said, "Are you out of your mind Nobody would ever votefor me" So I finally got her to come visit me in Arkansas And when shedid, the people at the law school were so impressed, they offered her ateaching position And she decided to take a huge chance
She moved to a strangeplace, more rural and conservative than anywhere she had been Where she knewgood and well that people were wondering what in the world she was like andwhether they could or should accept her Didn't take them long to find out whatshe was like
She loved herteaching She got frustrated when one of her students said, "What do youexpect, I'm just from Arkansas" She said, "Don’t tell me thatYou’re as smart as anybody You just have to believe in yourself and work forit and set high goals" She believed anyone could make it She alsostarted the first legal aid clinic in northwest Arkansas, providing legal aidservices to poor people who couldn't pay for them
One day, I was drivingher to the airport to fly back to Chicago when we passed this little brickhouse that had a for-sale sign on it and she said, "Boy, that's a prettyhouse" It had 1,100 square feet, an attic fan and no air conditioner inhot Arkansas, and a screened-in porch Hillary commented on what a uniquelydesigned and beautiful house it was
So I took a bigchance I bought the house My mortgage was $175 a month When she came back, Ipicked her up and said, "You remember that house you like" I said,"While you were gone, I bought it, and you have to marry me now" Thethird time was the charm We were married in that little house on October 11,1975 I married my best friend
