卍每日习语卍 Easy money

rex56

钱在英文里有各种说法。一个用得最普遍的就是：Money. 我们要给大家介绍的一个习惯用语恐怕是许多人都很欢迎的。

这个习惯用语是：Easy money. Easy就是容易，money就是钱。

Easy money有两种不同的意思。Easy money可以指用花招或欺骗手段得来的不义之财。但是，easy money一般是指没有花什么功夫而得来的钱财。

举一个例子。这是一个人做了一笔很好的房地产生意。他说：

例句1: I heard about this house the owner had to sell in a hurry, so I got it at a very cheap price. A week later I sold it for a 20,000 dollar profit. Talk about your easy money!

这个好运气的人说：我听说这栋房子的房主急于要出售这房子，所以我以很便宜的价格买进了。一个星期后，我把它卖掉，从中赚了两万美元。这真是轻而易举得来的钱。

请大家不要以为在美国赚钱都是那么容易。像这种机会是不多的。相反地，美国商店亏本倒闭的也不少，特别是现在这个经济不景气的时候。

想轻而易举地得到钱是可以理解的，但是重要的问题是用什么手段，通过什么途径。美国是一个物质丰富的国家，有些年轻人对于物质享受已经习以为常，以为什么东西都很容易得到。在无法得到的时候，有些人就采用犯罪手段。这也是美国年轻人当中犯罪的原因之一。下面我们来给大家举一个例子。这是一个老师在对学生讲话。

例句2: I know you all want to be successful in the future. But the best way to do that is to get a good education. If I were you, I'd study hard and not spend a lot of time in figuring out how to make easy money.

这位老师说：我知道你们都希望将来很成功。可是，要达到这个目的的最好方法就是受到良好的教育。要是我是你们的话，我就努力学习，而不是化好多时间去想怎么样才能轻而易举地得到钱。
