1. to catch/take one's fancy
. C2 W7 q+ ?- I& gto catch/take one's fancy的意思是“合意”或“中意”(please or attract sb),即“让人看上”,其逻辑主语应该是“被看上的人或物”。和这个习语相近的还有一个表达:to be one's liking/taste。2 T! W; [6 c: E! a
请看例句:8 Q5 b3 |7 }1 ?( d
1. The girl named Mary has caught his fancy.

4. This jacket is just to my taste.2 [. F$ f' |' l! |

如果“看中”、“看上”和“相中”等表示“经过选择而合意或满意”,那么英语可以译为to take a fancy to或to take a liking to等,其逻辑主语是“看上别人或物的人”。意思是:to start liking someone or wanting something very much.# l+ }: m% d% J+ c- m

1. It would be fine if that man should take a fancy to me.& |! K2 S+ R; T( P" y3 I

( R6 x0 T2 L) g, q. t我想我看上你了。2 M3 i: C9 ?2 k2 W# m; q
“看中”等还表示“经过深思熟虑而决定选择”。此时英语可以译为to settle on, to choose, to make a choice of等。如:7 z" _9 E' f9 h3 @. S3 j( r
In the shop, she settled on a red dress.% r+ F: X7 D% F2 j8 G
