用stony-faced 表达“面无表情的”

如果形容某人是 stony-faced 那就表示此人看上去毫无表情或不动心的。

  • I tried to get the judge to be on my side by making a joke but he remained stony-faced.
  • I got caught smoking at school. I‘ll never forget the stony faces of my parents when they read the letter from the headmaster.

值得注意的是,我们还可以用 stonily 作副词。



  • Mary didn‘t cry at the funeral. Even when other people were weeping she just stared stonily at the ground.

另外,我们可以用 a stony silence 来表示一种尴尬的沉默。

  • I‘ve been asking her what‘s wrong for hours but all I get is this stony silence.
