Rob: Yes, plus some. If you cancel, you'll get less back. And starting a new one now would be more expensive because of the interest rates. Fiona: [To self] I'm going to get money back! Shopping time! Rob: Your husband is a different story. He only has a basic health policy. What's your family's total yearly income? Fiona: My husband's the primary income earner. He earns about a million a year. Rob: I suggest you drop your old health policies and start over with us. Fiona: What's different about your insurance?
(续上期,待续)
罗 伯︰是的,还会比本金多一点。如果你取消,领回的钱会比较少。而且因为利率的关系,现在买新的储蓄险会较贵。 费欧娜︰(对自己)我就快拿回钱了!购物时间! 罗 伯︰你先生的情形就不一样了。他只有基本的医疗保险项目。你们家的年收入多少? 费欧娜︰我先生是主要的经济来源。他一年约赚一百万。 罗 伯︰我建议你取消旧的医疗保单,换跟我们签一分新合约。 费欧娜︰你们的保险有啥不同?
重点解说:
★ interest (n.) 利息。interest rates 是指‘利率’ ★ primary (a.) 主要的,首要的 | |

I agree.
大多数人都不喜欢被排斥、被孤立,如果你想对别人表示赞同和好感,可以待他发表完意见后跟他说" I agree"(我赞同)。"I agree"等于"I agree with you"的简化句。有时候当你想加入自己意见时,可以说"I feel the same',或"I feel the same way",也可用"Likewise"(我有同感)来表达你的想法。
对话 A:Don't you think it would be much more convenient to have our own car? B:I agree, but we don't have enough money. A:If I remember correctly, you should have got your annual bonus last week. B:If I remember correctly, we have already spent it on a plasma TV, a diamond ring and two LV handbags. 甲:你觉得我们有一辆车子会方便一点吗? 乙:我同意,但是我们不够钱。 甲:如我没记错,你在上个星期应已拿了年终奖金。 乙:如我没记错,我们已经用来买了一部等离子电视机、一只钻石戒指和两个LV手袋。
听到人家的话,要表示同意,最简单的说法是Yes。对当权者所言无不应以Yes的人,男的叫yes-man,女的叫yes-woman,这类人多得不必多说。 在英语国家,听别人演讲,觉得正合心意,一般会高喊:Hear! Hear! 意思是‘说得好!’从前,公共聚会比较嘈杂,在座者要叫人留意演讲者的话,会说Hear him! Hear him!(听他说!)这渐渐变成Hear! Hear! 在国会辩论和其它演讲会上都可以听到。 听演讲以外,一般表示同意的说法有Right、You're right、Right you are、Right-o、You got it、I agree等。你当然还可以说Yes、Yeah或Yep。 要说得热诚一点,表示‘完全同意’,则可说I agree with you 100%.(我百分之百同意你的话)、We see eye to eye on this matter. / I see eye to eye with you on this matter. (我完全同意你对这件事的意见。)留意to see eye to eye和eyeball to eyeball.(眼球对眼球)不同。Eyeball to eyeball是‘面对面’的意思,有时有‘怒目相对’含义,例如:I had an eyeball-to-eyeball confrontation with my boss.(我和老板怒目相对。) 此外,你还可以说I couldn't agree with you more:赞成到了极点,无以复加,所以说couldn't agree more。‘完全同意’的其它说法是:You took the words right out of my mouth.(我要说的话,都给你说了。)、I'll drink to that!(我为此举杯!)
