[첼린지 Day2 _ ebs 영어회화] ebs 파워잉글리쉬 스크립트 03.May.20 / Tax Time in Korea

첼린지 두번째 날!! 

오늘은 세금이라는 주제의 기사로 공부를 하였다.

기사라 그런지 쭉쭉 이야기를 해서 받아쓰기 하는데 어려움이 느껴졌다. ㄷ ㄷ 

 

새로운 표현중 'way with somethig' 이 표현에 대한 설명을 듣는데 잘 와닿지가 않았다. 

아무리 사전을 찾아봐도 안나오고 문장구조도 이상하고..

근데 알고 보니 (구글검색 결과) AWAY with something 

way 가 아니라 away 였다...^^

교제 없이 듣기에 의존하다보니 이런 일이 ㄷㄷ

그래도 나에게 구글검색이 있어서 다행이다.

 

** 듣기에 의존한 스크립트이기 때문에 틀린부분이 있을 수 있습니당! >0<

 

01.  Tax time in Korea

 

It’s the time of the year that people around the world dread tax season.

Americans and Canadians file their forms last month. The deadline for Korean to file their annual tax return is this month.

So don’t wait until the last minute to get it done. If your forms are complicated such as those people with multiple sources of income. Then you may have an accountant you can count on.

Most people probably wish they didn’t have to spend time fling out forms and paying more taxes.

But it doesn’t look like government is going to do away with it anytime soon.

 

 

** dread= really really don't like

 

** count on= depend on / rely on

EX) Don’t count on him= don’t trust him

 

** accountant = CPA 

 

** away with something = get rid of something (but ‘way with sth’ is more like official expression)

Ex) I hope they do away with plastic bag at a grocery store soon.

 

Do away with= remove it completely or put on end to it

ex) The long-range goal must be to do away with nuclear weapons altogether.
