The Adventures of Odyssea: Ch 4.5 - Calypse

“显眼包": “显眼”指明显而容易被看到，因而引人注目；“包”用在动词、形容词后面，指具有某种特点的人，原本“显眼包”指爱出风头，出洋相的人（make a fool (out) of），多少带有一点“嫌弃”的意味。但如今，“显眼包”指外在形象或性格特征引人注目的人，夸赞的意思明显。比如说：我的朋友是个“显眼包”。我有一个显眼包的朋友。
【EN】显眼包: "显眼"means obvious and easy to see, thus attracting attention; "包" used after a verb or adjective refers to a person with a certain characteristic. Originally, "显眼包" referred to someone who loves to steal the spotlight or make a fool of themselves, carrying a hint of "嫌弃". But nowadays, "显眼包" refers to a person whose external appearance or personality traits are eye-catching, with a clear meaning of praise. For example: 我的朋友是个显眼包。我有一个显眼包朋友。
ps：引人注目：raw one's attention
        出风头：Show off 
        出洋相：make a fool of yourself
        嫌弃：disdain
        外在形象：outward appearance

        “笑一笑，十年少”，这是中国人常常说的一句话，意思是笑有很大的作用，笑一笑会让人年轻很多。
        只有常常笑，才能使自己年轻，不容易变老。所以我们每天都应该在工作、学习中，多想想高兴的事儿，多做做能让自己开心的事儿，试着让自己更快乐。
        所以，今天你笑了吗？

"Smile, ten years younger" is a saying often used by Chinese people, which means that laughter has a great effect, and a smile will make people younger. Laughing often can we make ourselves younger and not grow old easily. So we should think more about happy things, do more things that can make us happy, and try to make ourselves happier in our work and study every day.
