Jessica在北京学汉语，她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来请教她。今天是方方要问的：宰人。 JESSICA: 方方，Your new cell phone is so cool! FF: 那是，这可是最新型的智能手机! JESSICA: 这手机很贵吧？ FF: 商店里卖5000块呢! JESSICA:啊？ That price gives me sticker shock. FF: sticker shock? sticker, s-t-i-c-k-e-r, sticker, 是商品的价签，shock表示吃惊，sticker shock就是说看到价签上的价格，被吓到了，对不对？ JESSICA: That's correct. FF: 说起来，那天我去商场里买手机，When I saw the price, I got major sticker shock. 那价格让我大跌眼睛。这么贵，纯属宰人! 对了，“宰人”在美语里怎么说呢？ JESSICA: We use the word "rip-off". r-i-p-o-f-f. If something gives you sticker shock, you can say "This is a rip-off". FF: This is a rip-off, 这是宰人价! JESSICA: You can also say rip someone off. FF: Rip someone off？我明白，就是“冲某人要高价，宰人一刀”。那我要是说“我被人宰了”，就是 I was ripped off，对不对？ JESSICA: Exactly! Fangfang, Don't you think you were kinda ripped off ? This phone is really pricey! FF: There's no way I got ripped off! 这手机是网上买的，才1000块! Jessica: Wow! That's a really good deal! FF: 那是! 哎？怎么回事？手机怎么不动了？Jessica 你看看，what's wrong with my phone? Jessica: Let me see ....The phone is dead. It's broken. FF: 啊？坏了？我，我昨天才买的! Jessica: It seems like you bought a shoddy phone. Shoddy is spelled s-h-o-d-d-y. If something is of poor quality, you say it's shoddy. FF: Shoddy 就是形容质量低劣。嘿! 气死我了! 买了个劣质品。 Jessica: You know what they say, Fang Fang, you got what you paid for. FF: You got what you paid for? 便宜没好货! Jessica, 你损我是吧？ Jessica: 哈哈，别生气了。Let's see what you've learned today! FF: 第一，宰人是rip-off, 当动词是rip someone off; 第二，形容价格高可以说 something gives me sticker shock 第三，形容质量低劣可以用shoddy.[ 来自小组 食品科学 ] |
