  5 薪水太低
  3句英文任你选
  Working so hard for such a small salary, it just isn't worth it.
  工作这么辛苦却领这么点薪水,实在是不值得。
  I've noticed that people in comparable jobs get paid more than I do.
  我发现做同等工作的同事薪水比我高。
  This job stinks: stupid boss, hard work, and low pay.
  这个工作差劲透顶:老板蠢,工作苦,薪水又低。
  半个句型要记牢
  it be worth ~(值得……)
  Tip:
  worth意为"值得……,有……的价值的"等,常常用作形容词,在句中一般作表语,有时也可用作定语,如 a place worth seeing (值得一看的地方) , a dictionary worth $ 50 (一本价值50美元的词典)等。worth用作表语时,不能单独使用,其后通常接动词的-ing形式,而不能接动词不定式。
  常用的句式有:
  (1) "主语+be +worth+动词的-ing形式+……"此时,句子的主语就是worth之后动词-ing形式的逻辑宾语。例如 He isn't worth getting angry with. (犯不上跟他生气。)[注意]动词的-ing形式之后的介词不可省去。worth后, 面的动词-ing形式一般用主动形式表示被动意义,而不能直接用其被动形式。
  (2) "It (形式主语) + be + worth +动词的-ing形式+……"例如 This book is worth reading. = It is worth reading this book. = This book is well worth reading. (这本书值得一读。)
