There she goes! Ming Xi 28 suffered an epic tumble at the 22nd annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show show which was held at the Mercedes Benz Arena in Shanghai on Monday
在标题中我们学到了:
-
mortified表示“窘迫的” “尴尬的”,我们可以用它来替换embarrassed
-
catwalk是“T型台” “时装表演台”,在美式英语中也常用runway来表示
-
mishap表示"an unfortunate but not very serious event that happens someone",和下文出现的hitch意思差不多
take a tumble强调的是突然摔倒a sudden fall。这个表达也常用来物价的暴跌。
slip表示accidentally slide and lose balance,滑倒
fall falt on one's face也表示摔倒,字面的意思是“脸贴地面,趴倒在地”。这个表达常用来表示“失败、不成功”
catch in/on表示“被卡住”,例如Her ankle caught on a root and she almost lost her balance... 她的脚踝被树根绊了一下,差点摔倒。

Laughing it off: Ming did her best to keep a smile on her face as she attempted to get up
这则标题也用到了tumble catch in。我们还学到了ensemble这个词,表示“套装”。
She has been strutting her stuff for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show since 2013. But Ming Xi momentarily lost composure as she suffered an epic tumble at the 22nd annual show which was held at the Mercedes Benz Arena in Shanghai on Monday.
The Chinese model 28 accidentally caught the flowing fabric of her ensemble on the heel of her thigh-high gladiator shoes - sending her packing for all to see.
这里我们可以学习send someone packing,在这里表示“force someone to leave a place”,也就是失去平衡的意思。send someone packing常用来表示“解雇某人” 。

Ask any model what their greatest Fashion Week fear is and they’ll tell you it involves tripping on the runway. Even supermodels such as Naomi Campbell and Gigi Hadid have had the misfortune of falling mid-strut though thankfully their missteps did not result in broken bones just a little embarrassment. At a huge globally televised event like the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show the stakes are particularly high. It’s why model Ming Xi unwittingly found herself in the spotlight earlier today tripping over her skirt and falling to her knees onto the VS runway in all her Goddess-segment finery. Astonishingly she managed to maintain her composure as she fell echoing Jennifer Lawrence’s fateful moment at the 2013 Oscars a mistake that become a viral-meme sensation.
Xi completed her walk with a little help from fellow model Gizele Oliveira and had the entire crowd cheering her on as she got back on her feet. She proved that taking a tumbleisn’t necessarily a bad thing especially when it ends with all eyes on you.
在Vogue的报道中,我们又见到take a tumble,说明这个表达是母语人士常用的,我们应该掌握。除此之外我们还学习到:
-
“绊倒”可以用trip on/over表示
-
runway和前面我们学到的catwalk是一个意思
-
模特走步可以用strut,表示昂首阔步
-
get back on one's feet表示“站起来”,这个表达也常用来表示“重新振作” “恢复健康”。

Chinese model Ming Xi took a tumble on the runway but still rose above the mishap.
The 28-year-old slipped Monday while walking during the “Winter’s Tale” portion of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Shanghai. Xi handled the fall gracefully readjusting her costume and getting back on her feet in seconds.
Xi who had tripped on her long train somehow managed to smile throughout the ordeal. Gizele Oliveira who was walking behind her lent a hand as she stood up and then waited for Xi to go forward.
The model’s calm approach to temporary disaster drew applause from the audience and before long people across social media were praising Xi for her poise. Others also commended Oliveira for her empathy on the runway.
读完了前三篇新闻后,再读这篇就会有“他乡遇故知”的感受,我们又遇到了:take a tumble mishap(还记不记得hitch?),slip trip on get back on one's feet。顺便学到train在这里不是“火车”,而是“裙裾”。
不知不觉大家已经和我做了一次“主题阅读”,通过这种方式我们了解了信息,学了些地道实用的英文。读完这篇文章你至少可以收获到:
1. 摔倒、绊倒可以用slip trip on/over fall (on) fall flat on one's face fall to one's knees,这四篇报道中出奇一致的用了take a tumble。
2. 很多表达的比喻义很常见,例如take a tumble fall flat on one's face get back on one's feet。这样的表达简单、形象,我们可以用到口语和写作中。
事后奚梦瑶在微博上说:
“不管摔得多疼,我都一定要站起来,把路走完...” 祝她好运,祝她早日get back on her feet。
