小知识
When someone lays eyes on you and keeps looking, it is a gaze or a stare. You can gaze back or just say, “Take a picture; it lasts longer.”
Gaze is both a verb and a noun. When people daydream, they often gaze off into the distance without focusing on anything. Another type of gaze, though, is to look very intently at something, as when you gaze at the sky making pictures out of clouds. A contest to see who will blink first means taking a long gaze into someone's eyes, and this type of gaze (the noun) will leave your eyes in a bit of a haze when you're done.

动词辨析
gaze,gape,stare
这组词都有“(长时间)看”的意思。其区别是1.gaze可表示倾慕、神往;stare表示吃惊或深思;gape强调看得“目瞪口呆”。2.gaze和stare既可用作不及物动词,也可用作及物动词;gape仅用作不及物动词。例如Never in his life had he gazed on such splendor.他生平从没有见过如此辉煌壮丽的场面。What are you gaping at?你目瞪口呆看什么呢?They gaped at me when I told them about the gold I had found.我告诉他们我找到黄金的情况时,他们惊讶得张着大嘴看着我。gaze at,fix on,glare at,stare at这四个短语的共同意思是“注意看”。其区别是fix on是普通用语,指目光集中在某物上或注意力集中在某事上;glare at指愤怒、凶猛地看,强调敌对或威胁的态度;gaze at指着迷地或惊羡地看,强调目不转睛;而stare at则指呆呆地看,含有无礼或粗鲁的意味。例如He glared at me hatefully.他以仇视的眼神盯着我。He is gazing at the beautiful woman.他凝视着那位漂亮的女人。It?s rude to stare at other people.直勾勾地看人不礼貌。
