輕松日記商務(wù)職場(chǎng)篇第116期:不要輕視不如你的人

核心句型：
Never look down on people less superior to you.

不要輕視不如你的人。

look down on sb./sth. 直譯過(guò)來(lái)就是：“向下看某人或某物”，這個(gè)短語(yǔ)的正確意思是：“輕視某些人或事”。因此，當(dāng)美國(guó)人說(shuō)"Never look down on people less superior to you."時(shí)，他/要表達(dá)的意思就是:"Never despise those people who are inferior to you."、"Never look down on those who are not so outstanding as you."。

情景對(duì)白：
Benjamin: Jane, you should not look down on people less superior to you. Men are born equal!Your words may hurt that cleaner's self-esteem.

本杰明：簡(jiǎn)，你不要輕視不如你的人。人人生而平等，你剛才的話可能傷害到那位清潔工人的自尊心了。

Jane: I'm sorry. I, I'm just...a little angry at her carelessness.

簡(jiǎn)：我也感到很抱歉。我，我只是對(duì)她的粗心大意感到有些生氣。

搭配句積累：
①Yes, I will keep it in my mind.

是的，我會(huì)記住的。

②You'd better mind your own business.

你最好少管閑事。

③It is none of your business. What makes you say that?

又不關(guān)你的事，你憑什么這么說(shuō)?

④Maybe they would be stronger than you some day.

或許將來(lái)有一天，他們將會(huì)比你強(qiáng)。

單詞：
despise vt. 輕視

I can never, ever forgive him. I despise him.

我永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)原諒他。我鄙視他。

She secretly despises his work.

她暗地里瞧不起他的工作。

How I despised myself for my cowardice!

我是多么鄙視自己的怯懦啊!
