Whether it's the upside-down kiss in Spiderman or that kiss in The Notebook, there are iconic smooches that are impossible to forget.
無論是《蜘蛛俠》里的倒掛式接吻，還是《戀戀筆記本》中的深情之吻，總有些經典的擁吻鏡頭令我們難以忘懷。

Taking inspiration from Hollywood stars, couples battled it out to create unforgettable kisses of their own in a wacky annual competition held in Yunnan Province in south west China.
受這些好萊塢經典形象的啟發(fā)，在中國西南的云南省舉辦的這場年度接吻大賽上，情侶們也爭相創(chuàng)造屬于他們自己的，難忘且又略雷人的擁吻記憶。

The eventual winners were newly weds Mr and Mrs Zhang, who managed to hold the 'flamingo' position for the longest.
最終的贏家是一對新婚的小夫妻，張先生和他的妻子。他們以“火烈鳥”式的姿勢創(chuàng)造了最長的擁吻時間。

易詞解詞（BY 摩西）

flamingo n.火烈鳥。詞根flam-表火焰、燃燒，-ing表形容詞，意思是belonging to，結尾的-o是陽性名詞后綴。字面意思“flame-colored”bird，所以從詞源上即可判斷火烈鳥的顏色。同根詞flame火焰，flammable adj.易燃的，n.易燃物。值得說的是，inflammable與flammable含義相同，前綴in-在這里不表示相反，而inflammable的含義已經固定了下來。

couple n. 對；夫婦；數(shù)個，vi. 結合；成婚，vt. 結合；連接；連合。夫妻是要“結合”在一起的，而要結合在一起，必定需要經過調整和適應的過程，這就是詞根ap,apt,ept的含義。于是adapt vt.使適應那就是to adjust，adept adj.熟練的，那是fitted合適的，aptitude n.天資；自然傾向，就是說你適不適合做某些事情的天資。

Mr Zhang said: 'I haven't given her any expensive presents yet, like jewellry, but I hope that this win will give her happy memories and give our relationship a good start.'
張先生說：“我還沒給她買過珠寶之類的貴重的禮物，不過，我希望贏得這次比賽會給她留下一個幸福的回憶，也希望能為我們的婚姻創(chuàng)造一個好彩頭?！?/div>
