This is Blair. J： Hi guys, 欢迎大家收听早安英文, this is Cecilia. C：Are you not feeling well？Jan你哪里不舒服嘛 J：Yeah I ate too much for lunch. 午饭吃太多了，胃疼。 C：谁让你吃那么多了。Haven't you heard of the seven deadly sins？ 七宗罪你就犯了两宗啊，贪婪，暴食，你看现在遭报应了吧? J：我这叫珍惜粮食不浪费，怎么还犯罪啦。 C: 你还不信，佛教也说，三毒者，贪嗔痴也。贪嗔痴贪嗔痴，就是“贪吃就会撑得慌”。 J：你真的是一本正经得胡说八道啊，不过你这么一说我突然发现，天主教和佛教都把贪列入了人最需要警醒的罪行，I guess it is something that we should be on alert for. C：You can say that again. 今天这期节目呢，正好我们就围绕”贪“这个字，跟大家分享一些相关的英文表达怎么样？ J：Alright, let's do it. J：首先来看看贪、贪婪这个词在英文中怎么表示啊，We just talked about the seven deadly sins right? C: Yeah. J: 那七宗罪里用来表示贪婪这个罪行的英文单词就是 greed. C: Right, greed它是一个名词啊，就表示贪婪、贪心、贪欲。 J：比方说对权力的贪得无厌，就可以说the greed for power. C: 对食物的贪欲，the greed for food. J: 我怀疑你是在内涵我啊。 C：哈哈不过这种对食物贪得无厌，七宗罪里专门有一条是形容它的，就叫做gluttony. J: Right gluttony means the habit of eating and drinking too much. 也就是我们说的贪吃，或者暴饮暴食。那喜欢暴饮暴食的人，就是gluttony去掉词尾的这个y，叫做glutton. C: 嗯类似我们中文叫的老饕，不过老饕是个中性词，英文的这个glutton是个贬义词。 J：Right. 其实贪吃已经算是危害相对来说比较小的贪了， people do much more harmful things driven by greed for money or power. C: Yeah and that's where corruption is bred. corruption就是指贪污、腐败，说一个人贪污的、腐败的，就用它的形容词，corrupt。 J：嗯像我们常说的贪官污吏，就可以说corrupt officials。 C：So this word is mostly used in the political field. 除了政界，还有一个领域也是特别容易暴露甚至催生人心中的贪欲的。 J： I don't even need to think to know you are talking about the entertainment business. C: Exactly, the entertainment business, 也就是光鲜亮丽、纸醉金迷的娱乐圈啊。Sometimes I really can't understand. People in the entertainment business, they are already so rich, much richer than most people. 已经比绝大多数人都有钱了，为什么还要为了更多的钱去做一些铤而走险、甚至不择手段的事。 J：是的，现在明星有了一定的名气之后很多都会去做生意，开店啊、直播带货啊，当然这些都没什么问题，但是还有些人甚至去非法敛财，这种就很可恨了。 C: 对比方说之前在节目里聊过的张庭，她的化妆品公司就涉嫌传销，还牵扯到了她的闺蜜陶虹。 J：They can't really lack money, they just covet more. C: 是的，没有钱想有钱，有钱了又想要更多的钱，covet sth 在这里就表示贪求某物、觊觎某物的意思。 J：嗯比方说，贪图荣华富贵，covet glory and wealth. C: Or we often hear this line in the historical drama，说谁谁谁你狼子野心，是不是觊觎王位，拿这句话就可以翻译成Do you covet the throne? C: Haha of course we don't get to say that very often in real life. 现实生活中，我们最常遇到的还是这种喜欢贪图小利、贪小便宜的人。 J: 贪小便宜，我们可以表达成 go for small gains, go for 在这里就等于 choose, small gains 就是小的好处、小的利益。 C: Yeah so there is a saying, small gains, big loss. You can guess what it means. J: Small gains, big loss, 说的就是中文里一个非常简单的道理嘛，贪小便宜吃大亏。 C: Right, another way to put it is, penny wise, pound foolish. 或者中间用一个and 连接起来， penny wise and pound foolish。这句话里的“penny”是“便士，小钱”的意思，代表小事；而“pound”是“英镑，大钱”，代表大事。所以在花小钱的时候精明，花大钱的时候糊涂，也就是贪小便宜吃大亏的意思。 J：嗯有这种毛病的人可要改一改啦，我们追求的应该是“大事聪明小事糊涂”。 C：There is another word especially used to describe people who go for small gains. Freeloader.这个词是专门用来指哪些贪小便宜的人的。 J: Yeah if you refer to someone as a freeloader, you disapprove of them because they take advantage of other people's kindness, for example, by accepting food or accommodations from them, without giving anything in return.  C: 就是利用别人的慷慨来占便宜的人，比方说跑到别人家里白吃白住，然后完全没有想过要给别人回报的这种行为，就可以叫做freeload, 就是吃白食、不劳而获嘛 J: 是的，那比方说和朋友一起吃饭，朋友非要请客，你坚持AA，就可以说，no no no, I wouldn't freeload, I'm not a freeloader. C： Alright today we've talked about different kinds of greed. 身价多少亿的明星也好，普通人也好，we are just human beings, who can't help being influenced by these human emotions. Problem is, how can we overcome it? J: Well, I think one important way is being content with what you have. 首先是要把目光放在已经拥有的东西上，不要永远想着自己还没有的。 C：Yeah after all we Cannot Bring our Wealth When we Die. If we want to experience real joy, then we should learn to appreciate The Joy Of Being Able To Help Others. J: Right, 有句话叫做：给予比获得更快乐啊。 Being able to help someone is fulfilling. It will give a greater sense of purpose. C：Yeah hope you guys can exprience this joy everyday.So, Thank you so much for listening. this is Blair B：this is Jan, see you next time
