英语课
Luming : I have been dying for a new laptop. Mine is a piece of junk.
我早就想买一台新的笔记本电脑了。我的那台是个垃圾货。
Alice : You should not your money like this. Money doesn't grow on trees.
你不应该如此挥霍。钱又不是从树上长出来的。
Luming : What? Money doesn't grow on trees, of course.
什么？当然钱是不会从树上掉下来的呀。
Alice : "Money doesn't grow on trees."means "earning money is not easy". Moreover, you are staying at home and between job.
我说的意思是钱是来之不易。再说你现在失业了，呆在家中。
Luming : I'll work and make money soon.
我很快就有工作了，可以挣钱了。
陆明被搞晕的就是这句话——Money doesn't grow on trees. 这句话的意思是：树不是在树上长的，摘下来就可以花，而是辛辛苦苦一分一分挣来的。因此这句话的意思就是用来说明钱来之不易，挣钱不容易。告诫我们花钱要慎重，不要随意挥霍。这句话多用来教育孩子。
我们再来看一个母子间的对话：
Richard: Mum, I want to buy a pair of new shoes.
妈妈，我想买一双新鞋子。
Cathy: No, darling, money doesn't grow on trees, you know.
不行，宝贝，钱可不是从树上长出来的。
