每天三分鐘學英語 第548期:不用iPhone X就是窮人?根據手機判斷一個人的人是Sad people

對方看到你用一個比較舊的手機，就開始“陰陽怪氣”起來，我們要怎麼說呢？
A: Are you.still using an iPhone 5? That's amazing.
你還在用iPhone5嗎？太不可思議了。
B: It's an SE actually. And so what if I was using one?
實際上是SE。如果我用的就是iPhone5又怎麼樣呢？
總有些人通過你用什麼東西來評價你，非常討厭！就算我用箇舊手機又怎樣呢？
So what if…
就算…那又怎麼樣呢？
舉個例子：
① So what if it's expensive? People still buy them.
就算貴又怎麼樣呢？大家還是會買的。
② So what if you're fat? I still like you.
就算胖又如何呢？我還是喜歡你。
接下來，對方就開始他的“表演”了，我們當然要反擊嘍：
A: Well, it makes you look poor. Everyone's using the iPhone X now.
那就會讓你看起來很窮呀。現在大家都用的是iPhone X。
B: People who judge others based on their phones are sad people. I wouldn't want to get to know any of them.
根據別人的手機來判斷別人的人才可悲。這樣的人我一個都不想認識。

通過一個人用什麼手機，穿什麼衣服，就來評價他是怎樣的人？呵呵
Judge… based on…
根據…來判斷…
舉兩個例子：
① I don't like Mina's friends. They judged me based on my clothes.
我不喜歡Mina的朋友們。他們根據我的衣服來判斷我。
② I don't judge people based on their appearance. I judge them based on their personality.
我不會以貌取人。我根據他們的性格來判斷。
Sad people
可悲的人
可以說 something is sad 或 someone is sad，來形容一件事或一個人的可悲。
在口語中的舉例：
① People who are on their phones all the time are sad people. They're missing out on life.
一直玩手機的人都是可悲的人。他們錯過了生活。
② People who gossip are sad people. It means their lives are boring.
愛說閒話的人是可悲的。這意味着他們的生活很無聊。
我們最後再補充一句：
I wouldn't want to get to know any of them. 這樣的人我一個都不想認識。
