  [00:21.52]Financial woes 2 often drive couples apart

[00:24.24]but the current recession seems to

[00:26.27]be having the opposite effect,

[00:28.45]with less couples able to afford

[00:30.75]the cost of a divorce.

[00:38.03]财务状况恶化经常会让夫妇分离,

[00:41.12]但目前的经济衰退似乎起了反作用,

[00:44.12]因为离婚的人反而少了。

[00:46.45]原因在于有些人实在太穷了,

[00:48.39]想离都离不起。

[01:02.19]即时讲解

[01:04.82]对于美国人来说,

[01:06.04]结婚对于很多人来说可能就是寻找一个玩伴,

[01:08.52]或说找一个人来一起享乐,

[01:10.80]但两人都囊中羞涩时,

[01:12.62]分开似乎是一个不错的选择。

[01:15.19]不过,穷到离婚都离不起,

[01:17.42]那不能不说是一种痛苦了,

[01:19.70]就如今天报道中的一个词woe 1

[01:22.68]woe的英语意义是Deep distress 3 or misery 4

[01:26.63]"深深的苦恼与不幸"。

[01:28.90]woe这个词平时用得不多,

[01:31.35]意思其实与suffering比较接近,

[01:34.28]看两个例子,He told a tale of woe.

[01:37.97]"他讲了一个不幸的故事";

[01:40.34]You need to forget your woes for a while

[01:43.97]and go out to have some fun.

[01:46.25]"你暂时需要放下这些悲伤的事情,出去找点乐子"。

[01:50.40]对于这些想离但又离不起的人们来说,

[01:53.63]他们要做的是在damaged marriages"已破损的婚姻"和

[01:58.07]tight budgets"紧缩的预算"之间作出出决择。

[02:02.13]我想,在TA们作出决定时,

[02:04.10]心中可能会默念这几天曝光率极高的一句话:

[02:07.70]This is it!

[02:13.96]原文重听

[02:15.78]Financial woes often drive couples apart

[02:18.61]but the current recession seems to

[02:20.49]be having the opposite effect,

[02:22.66]with less couples able to afford

[02:25.20]the cost of a divorce.
