  只要有人的地方就会有传言,或真或假。有些人传播起谣言来,功力非凡,能把莫须有的事情说得跟真的一样。今天,我们就来说说人们在传播谣言时都是怎么开口的。
  1. Have you heard the rumor1? Someone said the Smiths got divorced。
  你知道吗?听说史密斯夫妇离婚了。
  2. I hear she comes from a well-off family。
  听说她出生于一个富裕家庭。
  3. Did you hear his mother was arrested for tax evasion2?
  你听说了吗?他妈妈因逃税被抓起来了。
  注意:引出传言时,可以用Have you heard、Did you hear、I hear等开始。比如:
  Have you heard/Did you hear that Mr. Green is leaving the company?
  你听说格林先生要辞职吗?
  另外,可以用表示“谣言”的rumor这个词直接来表达,例如:
  Rumor has it that /Rumor goes that Mr. Green is leaving the company。
  有传言说格林先生要辞职。
  4. Apparently3,Bill was jilted。
  很明显,比尔被女朋友甩了。
  注意:Apparently用来表示相当有把握的信息。
  5. This is strictly4 off the record。
  可不要对别人说哦。
  注意:同样的表达方式还有This is just between us/ you and me(这话到此为止)。
