口语学习：He looks like the cat that ate the canary.
He looks like the cat that ate the canary.他看起来（臭美得）像只偷腥的猫。
汉语口语中，形容一个人因为达到某种心愿而得意、或满足的样子，会用一个比喻“像偷了腥的猫”。英文中，也有一个相类似的表达方式“like the cat that ate the canary”（直译就是：像吃了金丝雀的猫）。这个表达方式在英文中和在中文里一样，都不是很正式的语言，有一点点调侃的味道。
例句：
He finally won the game, looking like the cat that ate the canary.
他最终赢得了比赛，（现在）一副心满意足的样子。
