【篇二】与金钱相关的英语口语
1. smart money 精明的投资者,搞经济的专家
Smart这个字有好几个解释,比如说,聪敏,伶俐,漂亮,还可以解释为厉害等。在smart money这个习惯用语里,smart是指聪敏。大家恐怕也不难猜出smart money的意思。Smart money是指那些有经验的投资商或善于赌博的人经管投资的钱。有的时候,smart m
oney可以直接指这些人。下面就是一个例子。这是一个人在对朋友说经商的前景。
例句1: Do you think the economy is heading up or down? The smart money ems to think that business will get better so maybe it's time to put some money into the stock market.
你认为经济的前景是会变得更兴旺呢,还是会变得越来越疲软?那些搞经济的专家们似乎认为商业会越来越好,所以,也许现在是把一些钱投资到股票市场去的时候了。
由于美国投资市场五花八门,许多人都感到难以入门,可是最保险的银行存款又利率太低,所以越来越多的人把钱投入互助基金等收益更高的投资项目。下面的例子就是一个退休的人在说他自己的经历。

2. mad money 备用/急用的钱
Mad这个字可以解释为发疯,也可以说是快气疯了。但是在这里mad是指非常生气。那么,钱怎么会生气的呢? 最开始的时候,mad money是年轻女子跟男朋友一起出去玩的时候自己身上藏的一点钱。万一她跟男朋友生气了,或吵架了,那她至少自己有钱叫出租车回家去。
现在,mad money的含义已经扩大了。Mad money是另外放出的一小部份现金,准备在紧急时候用的。我们来举一个例子吧。这是一个丈夫在说话。
例句3: The other day we ran out of gas sixty miles from home. I had forgotten my wallet. But we were lucky - my wife remembered she had her mad money, so we were able to buy gas to get back home.
那天,我们在离家六十英里的地方发现汽车里没有汽油了。我那天又忘了带钱包。但是,我们很幸运,因为我太太记得她有一些准备急用的现金,所以我们能买了汽油,开车回家。
例句4: Last Saturday, my daughter was invited to a dinner party and planned to buy a cake on her way. In the bakery, she found out that she'd forgotten her pur. Fortunately, she had her mad money in her pocket to pay for the cake, so it turned out all right.
