今天的这段对话，在讨论奥普拉•温弗瑞，
关于奥普拉•温弗瑞的专访讲了什么？做了哪些慈善事业
来听今天的讲解:
A: have you read the feature article about Oprah Winfrey in this magazine?
你看这本杂志里那篇关于奥普拉•温弗瑞的专访了吗?
B: no, what's it about?
没看呢,说了什么?
A: apparently, she's being given an award for donating so much money to charity.
她向慈善机构捐了巨额资金因此而获得了一个荣誉奖项.
B: she's very generous with her money. I think that's because she was poor when she was young.
她非常慷慨.我想着可能是因为她年轻的时候曾经很贫穷.
A: I heard that she's one of the wealthiest women in the world.
我听说她现在已经是世界上最富有的女人之一了.
B: I'd believe it. She owns magazines, television shows and she has a huge fan base.
我相信.她名下拥有很多杂志和电视节目,同时,她还有无数拥护者.
A: you know; I heard that she was opening a school for underprivileged girls in Africa.
要知道,据说她还为非洲的贫困女童开办了学校.
B: did they mention that in the article?
那专访里提到这个了吗?
A: yes, she's not only building the school, but is also using her own money for the upkeep of the school and to pay the teachers a fair salary.
提了,她不仅办了学校,还自掏腰包支付学校老师不菲的薪水以及校舍维护的所有费用.
B: that's really commendable. I think more celebrities should use their money to help people like Oprah has.
这真让人钦佩啊.我觉得名流们都应该像欧普拉这样把自己的钱用于帮助别人.
A: I agree. So many celebrities waste their money on sports cars, expensive clothing, and luxurious hotels.
我同意.太多名人只是把钱挥霍在跑车,高档服装和豪华酒店上了.
B: it's amazing how much money they can spend. I heard Britney Spears once spent $24,000 a night on a hotel room!
他们花出去的钱数非常惊人.我听说布兰妮斯皮尔斯曾经在一家酒店一晚上就花掉了24,000美元.
A: what a waste. It's good to see some stars that are more concerned with charity than status symbols.
太浪费了.有些明星能够更关注慈善事业而不是自己的身份地位,这才让人欣慰.
