50 yuan for a bottle of mineral water? The price is outrageous.
一瓶礦泉水要50塊?這簡就是在搶錢啊。
There is only one shop in this scenic spot. That's why they can charge like this.
該景點只有這一家商店。這正是他們敢要價這么高的原因。
重點講解:
The price is unreasonable.
This price is outrageous.
單詞outrageous的意思是“可憎的,可恥的;令人吃驚的”,比如,This girl spent an outrageous amount on clothes.這個女孩在穿著上的花銷毫無節(jié)制。而unreasonable的意思是“不合現(xiàn)的”,在表示“簡直是搶錢”的意思時力度不夠深,用outrageous更能體現(xiàn)出價格而昂到讓人發(fā)怒的含義。
