【流行美语】185:下流卑鄙的人;离开(1/2)


李华和Larry正在讨论在报纸上看到的几个犯罪案件。今天李华会学到两个常用语:bottom feeder(下流卑鄙的人)和bounce(要离开,要走)。

只需要听写文中出现的【男生说的】英文部分,中文对话部分(包括里面个别的英语词组)不需要听写!!
Hints:
Yeah
今天开始流行美语开始改版~~~早晚8点各更新一次,两期是一篇完整的音频~~谢谢大家支持

A bottom feeder is a really low, despicable person. That guy was selling drugs to kids, so he definitely counts as a bottom feeder.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of bottom feeders in the world.
It can be used to describe other people, too, but it's a very negative term.
Well, some people think that lawyers are bottom feeders because they benefit from other peoples' misfortunes.
That's true, but some people are upset by the fact that many lawyers get rich defending criminals.
Some people think that tabloid journalists are bottom feeders because they invade the privacy of celebrities and they don't always verify stories before they publish them.LH: Larry,你有没有看到报上说的那个被警察逮捕的毒贩?
LL: Yeah, that guy is a real bottom feeder. I hope that he goes to jail for a long time.
LH: 嗯,像这种坏人真应该被抓到牢里关起来。Larry,你刚才还说这家伙是个真正的bottom feeder,bottom是底层,feeder不是饲养员吗?这两个字怎么能合在一起,它们和那些坏人有什么关系?
LL: A bottom feeder is a really low, despicable person. That guy was selling drugs to kids, so he definitely counts as a bottom feeder.
LH: 噢,bottom feeder是形容一个很低下、很卑鄙的人。没错,报上说的那个人专门卖毒品给年轻孩子,简直太可恶了。我认为所有的毒贩都是bottom feeders.
LL: Unfortunately, there are a lot of bottom feeders in the world.
LH: 就是啊,这个世界还是有不少这种卑鄙的坏人。对了,Larry,这个bottom feeder是不是只能用来形容犯罪分子?
LL: It can be used to describe other people, too, but it's a very negative term.
LH: Bottom feeder还能用来形容其他人?那Larry,你给我举个例子。
LL: Well, some people think that lawyers are bottom feeders because they benefit from other peoples' misfortunes.
LH: 对,好多人都不喜欢律师,认为律师很卑鄙。我还听到过好多耻笑律师的笑话呢!可是,Larry,律师不也会保护我们的权利吗?
LL: That's true, but some people are upset by the fact that many lawyers get rich defending criminals.
LH: 噢,我明白了,人们之所以讨厌律师,是因为律师经常帮犯罪分子辩护,靠着打这种官司来赚钱。嗯,可是不管怎么说,我还是认为有的律师不能算bottom feeders。
LL: Some people think that tabloid journalists are bottom feeders because they invade the privacy of celebrities and they don't always verify stories before they publish them.
LH: 这我绝对同意,那些专门报道名人私生活的狗仔记者,真是够恶劣的。他们经常捏造有关名人的一些很荒谬,不确实的报道。只有卑鄙的人才会写出这样的东西来! They are real bottom feeders!
