內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介

大家對(duì)“vegetarian 素食者”這個(gè)概念肯定不陌生，隨之對(duì)“vegan 嚴(yán)格的素食主義者”的定義也有了更清楚的了解和認(rèn)識(shí)。近來(lái)，另一個(gè)和“飲食習(xí)慣”有關(guān)的說(shuō)法“freegan”逐漸流行開(kāi)來(lái)。這個(gè)詞到底是什么意思？它代表怎樣的“飲食者”？節(jié)目中，Rob 說(shuō)成為“freegan”的好處有哪些？看視頻，學(xué)地道英語(yǔ)。

Feifei
大家好，歡迎來(lái)到 BBC 英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的《地道英語(yǔ)》節(jié)目。我是馮菲菲，還有 Rob。

Rob
Yes I am. Hello.And I'm feeling a bit peckish.

Feifei
Peckish? 你餓嗎？

Rob
Yes, I am a little hungry.

Feifei
那錄完節(jié)目后，你就可以去餐廳里 buy yourself a bite to eat。

Rob
A what?

Feifei
A bite to eat – a snack, a sandwich and a packet of crisps maybe. And can you get me something too, please?

Rob
No, I won't be doing that, Feifei. Not now that I'm a freegan. That means I don't pay for food - I only eat what's free.

Feifei
Right. Rob 說(shuō)他是一個(gè)“freegan”，所以他只吃不用花錢買的食物。免費(fèi)的午餐？還有這好事兒？So how do you get it? Beg for it, steal it?

Rob
Of course not, Feifei. I just eat food that's been wasted – maybe thrown away by supermarkets or restaurants. I hate to see food being wasted.

Feifei
是的，浪費(fèi)是非常不好的行為。這么說(shuō) freegan 就是指食用商店或人們拋棄的食品、以減少浪費(fèi)的人？Wow Rob, this sounds like a good idea.

Rob
Yes. Let's hear from some other freegans in these examples – which are also free!

Examples
I'm trying to do my bit for the environment by reducing food that's thrown away, so I'm becoming a freegan.

My brother was so annoyed when he saw loads of food dumped in a bin at the back of the supermarket that he decided to collect it and give it to the homeless. I suppose you could call him a freegan.

Thrown away food isn't rubbish, it's free food! That's why I'm a freegan.

Feifei
這里是 BBC 英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的《地道英語(yǔ)》節(jié)目。在這集節(jié)目里，Rob 正在教給我們時(shí)髦詞“freegan”的意思和用法。

Rob
And, Feifei, freegans like me, don't just eat free food - we give it to people who need it more than us.

Feifei
Rob, you've changed. Why are you now being so responsible and charitable?

Rob
I'm just a good person. Oh, and it's saved me loads of money.

Feifei
Ah, I get it. You're not being a good person – you're just being tight!

Rob
Tight – you mean not generous? Honestly!

Feifei
You're not a freegan, you are a freeloader. 你呀，就是個(gè)吃白食的人。Come on, admit it, Rob.

Rob
Ermm, well, I'm just gonna go to the canteen. What was it you wanted? Oh and could you lend me some money to buy something please?

Feifei
Bye, Rob.

Rob
Bye.
