Question

第15课 Money Talks
People often say that money talks.
They mean that a person with a lot of money can say how he or she wants things done. But it is not easy to earn enough money to gain this kind of power.
Ask anyone in a business.
They will tell you that it is a jungle out there.
The expression probably began because the jungle is filled with wild animals and unknown dangers that threaten people.
Sometimes people in business feel competing businesses are as dangerous as wild animals.
And they feel that unknown dangers in the business world threaten the survival of their business.
People in business have to be careful if they are to survive the jungle out there.
They must not be led into making bogus investments.
Bogus means something that is not real.
Nobody is sure how the word got started.
But it began to appear in American newspapers in the eighteen hundreds.
A newspaper in Boston, Massachusetts, said the word came from a criminal whose name was Borghese.
The newspaper said Borghese wrote checks to people although he did not have enough money in the bank.
After he wrote the checks, he would flee from town.
So, people who were paid with his checks received nothing.
The newspaper said Americans shortened and changed the criminal's name Borghese, to bogus.
People trying to earn money also must be aware of being ripped off.
A person who is ripped off has had something stolen, or at least has been treated very unfairly.
A writer for the magazine "American Speech" said he first saw the expression used in nineteen seventy-one.
It was on a sign that a student carried during a protest demonstration at a university.
The message on the sign was that the student felt ripped off, or cheated.
Perhaps the best way to prevent getting ripped off in business is to not try to get rich quickly.
To be successful, a person in business works hard and tries to get down to brass tacks.
This expression means to get to the bottom or most important part of something.
For example, a salesman may talk and talk about his product without saying the price.
You get down to brass tacks when you say, "it sounds good, but how much does it cost."
Word expert Charles Funk thinks the expression comes from sailors on ships.
They clean the bottom of a boat.
When they have removed all the dirt, they are down to the brass tacks, the copper pieces that hold the boat together.
So, if we get down to brass tacks, we can prevent ripoffs and bogus ways of earning money in that jungle out there.
And, some good luck will help, too.

Ask anyone in a business.
随便问一个商人，
They will tell you that it is a jungle out there.
The expression probably began because the jungle is filled with wild animals and unknown dangers that threaten people.

Sometimes people in business feel competing businesses are as dangerous as wild animals.
有时候商人们会感到商业竞争有如野兽般危险。

Nobody is sure how the word got started.
没人知道这个词何时诞生
But it began to appear in American newspapers in the eighteen hundreds.
但是他最早出现在18世纪的美国报纸上
A newspaper in Boston, Massachusetts, said the word came from a criminal whose name was Borghese.
马萨诸塞州波士顿的一份报纸说这个词来源于一个名叫Borghese的罪犯。
The newspaper said Borghese wrote checks to people although he did not have enough money in the bank.
After he wrote the checks, he would flee from town.
报纸上说Borghese开了很多空头支票给人们，在他开完这些支票后就从镇上消失了。
So, people who were paid with his checks received nothing.
以至于人们无法兑现
The newspaper said Americans shortened and changed the criminal's name Borghese, to bogus.
记者说美国人将这个罪犯的名字Borghese缩写而成了bogus。
People trying to earn money also must be aware of being ripped off.
尽管知道这些支票应该被撕掉，人们还是试图取些钱，，

A person who is ripped off has had something stolen, or at least has been treated very unfairly.
一个被欺诈的人就像是被偷了，或者至少说是遭到了不公平的待遇。
A writer for the magazine "American Speech" said he first saw the expression used in nineteen seventy-one.
一个"American Speech" 杂志的撰稿人说他第一次看到这个词是在1971年。
It was on a sign that a student carried during a protest demonstration at a university.

The message on the sign was that the student felt ripped off, or cheated.
这个标语表明那个学生觉得自己被欺骗了
Perhaps the best way to prevent getting ripped off in business is to not try to get rich quickly.
也许解决商业欺诈的最好的方法是缩减营业额
To be successful, a person in business works hard and tries to get down to brass tacks.
要取得成功，商人们必须尝试记录这个事实。

This expression means to get to the bottom or most important part of something.
这个词意味着要查明事实的真相或者找到某些事最重要的部分
For example, a salesman may talk and talk about his product without saying the price.
例如，一个商人可以谈论他的产品，但是不谈价格
You get down to brass tacks when you say, "it sounds good, but how much does it cost."
当你问“听上去不错，不过多少钱”的时候意味着你想知道事实
Word expert Charles Funk thinks the expression comes from sailors on ships.
语言专家Charles Funk认为这个词来源于水手或是船员。
They clean the bottom of a boat.
他们清洁船的底部。
When they have removed all the dirt, they are down to the brass tacks, the copper pieces that hold the boat together.
当他们大扫除的时候，他们要清洁铜带的下面，这些铜带是用来箍紧船体的。
So, if we get down to brass tacks, we can prevent ripoffs and bogus ways of earning money in that jungle out there.
所以，如果我们努力寻求真相，我们就可以在复杂的商业竞争中尽量避免商业欺诈
And, some good luck will help, too.
同时，也会有好运相助的。
