先问一个问题:大家每天都离不开,辛苦得来、痛苦失去的东西是什么?其实这个问题应该有很多答案,但如果我说是"钱"的话,恐怕没有多少人会表示异议吧。说到钱,大家所熟悉的英语中的表达方式最常见的是"money"。"Money"是一个广义词,既可以指不定数目的钱,也可以表达一个概念。比如有"Money makes the mare go.(有钱能使鬼推磨。)"的谚语,但除了"money"之外还有哪些常用的表达方式呢?
1. cash 现金,现款
Of the two events, the cash loss-at this moment-weighed more heavily on him.(在这两起事件中,此时使他心情更沉重的莫过于丢现金这一起了。)
2. fund 资金,现款
The President also agreed to support congressional move to grant funds to help middle-and- lower income people pay their higher energy bills.(总统也同意国会的动议,资助收入一般和较低者,帮助他们支付日益增长的能源费。)
3. bill 钞票,纸币
The newest breed of inhabitants used the Cape Cod heritage not as a symbol of a proud and traditional past but as the symbol of a dollar bill.(新进来的这批居民并不把科得角的遗产看作过去骄傲和传统的象征,而是看作钱的象征。)
4. note 纸币
He motioned to the notes stacked on the table.(他用手指指堆在桌上的钞票。)
