第19课:吝啬的,贪婪的 - 12 【迷你小对话】 A: Why are all our relatives such misers? B: I don’t know for sure, maybe it is because they never had any money growing up and now are extra careful all the time. A: Perhaps, but it is a shame, as they live too cheaply. A: 我们的亲戚怎么个个都像守财奴似的? B: 我也不太清楚,也许是因为他们从小到大没什么钱,所以现在就格外节省。 A: 或许吧。不过他们生活也过于节俭了,真丢人。 【语言点精讲】 miser: 守财奴,小气鬼。 relative: 亲戚;亲属。 grow up: 长成,成熟。 shame: 羞耻,耻辱。 cheaply: 小气地;过分节俭地。 |
