inside trading: 內線交易 [ 2006-07-11 10:00 ]
7月10日,轟動一時的“臺開”非法股票交易案宣告?zhèn)山Y起訴,包括陳水扁女婿趙建銘及其家人在內,共有13人名列被告。臺北地方檢察署以涉嫌“內線交易”的罪名起訴扁婿趙建銘,要求判處其有期徒刑8年。
請看《中國日報》相關報道:Taiwan leader Chen Shui-bian's son-in-law was indicted Monday on
charges of insider trading.
Prosecutors are seeking an eight-year jail term for Chao Chien-ming, a doctor at
the prestigious Taiwan University Hospital, local television stations said.
報道中的“insider
trading”就是讓扁婿栽跟頭的"“內線交易”。Insider常用來指“了解內幕的人”,源于形容詞“inside”(內線的,潛伏作奸細的),如:inside
facts/story(內幕,內情);inside man(內線)。
另外,詞組on the inside 可用來指“知情”或“核心成員”,如: I'm not that much on the
inside.(我并不深知內情。) He gave his men the feeling of being really and truly on
the inside.(他讓手下人感到他們確實是心腹。)
