"I'd rather be lucky than good" - Movie Point

[first lines] Christopher "Chris" Wilton: The man who said "I'd rather be lucky than good" saw deeply into life. People are afraid to face how great a part of life is dependent on luck. It's scary to think so much is out of one's control. There are moments in a match when the ball hits the top of the net, and for a split second, it can either go forward or fall back. With a little luck, it goes forward, and you win. Or maybe it doesn't, and you lose. " - Movie Match Point

林行止 林行止專欄

2019年7月18日 林行止   林行止專欄 「帶路」應從英殖民史汲取養料 一、 五月，兩位港人熟知不同界別的美國名人，哥爾夫球員老虎伍德（Tiger Woods）和經濟學家拉發（Arthur Laffer, 1940-），分別於上旬及下旬獲特朗普總統頒授「總統自由勳章」（Presidential Medal of Freedom），這是不分種族、國籍的老百姓能獲取的美國最高榮譽。伍德之獲獎，傳媒上似未見負面評論，拉發的卻引起經濟學界紛紛異議。 「資深」讀者對拉發大名，應當不感陌生，對「拉發曲線（Laffer Curve）則肯定記憶猶新！「數十年前」，筆者在這裏多次介紹此曲線的良窳。簡而言之，拉發總結先賢（有人追蹤至十五世紀阿拉伯的理論）的智慧，指出稅率升達某一高位，稅收不增反減，因為當納稅人覺得稅率太高時，不但會高薪請「豪富寄生蟲」的會計師和稅務律師，設計避稅甚且逃稅的策略，還會「怠工」少賺以免墜入高端稅網……。拉發所以得享大名，除人際關係極佳之外（他歷任民主共和兩黨要角及在兩黨當政的白宮擔任經濟顧問，八十年代且曾被英相戴卓爾夫人羅致，為英國的財政政策出謀獻策），其稅率高稅收少的主張，在入息稅稅率高達百分之九十的高稅年代，的確令以調低稅率為政策目標的政客十分「興奮」，遂屢被重用；加上他善解人心，令他得享大名。 拉發受知於特朗普，主要是他為特朗普競選時經濟顧問團隊的成員，特朗普當選後，他閉門寫作，與一名《華日》前編輯合撰一書《特朗普經濟學──復興美國經濟計劃內情》（Trumponomics: Inside the America First Plan to Revive Our Economy），此書雖劣評如潮（筆者未曾寓目），但「簡在帝心」，也許正是他獲殊榮的底因。 攤開稿紙（筆者仍然「筆耕」！）不是因為拉發得獎而寫他的經濟學，而是因為拉發而想起溫年斯基（Jude Wanniski；七十年代《華日》副總編輯），筆者曾在此評介他的成名作《世界這樣運作》（The Way the World Works；拉發首次公開介紹此曲線時，在座者為後成副總統的切尼、國防部長拉非爾和這位傳媒人），其中說及英國殖民史，當中有段描述，與如今中國開拓「一帶一路」頗有相通處。找出舊文一讀，覺得頗有「現實意義」，不妨「舊文新刊」。順便一提，筆者有一經常忘記「執

卸膊；兩個動詞？ - 古德明

卸膊；兩個動詞？ - 古德明 問：「卸膊」英文怎麼說？ 答：香港人所謂「卸膊」，是指「規避責任」，英文叫做shirk；有時，「卸膊」帶「推卸責任」的意思，那可以譯做to shift one's responsibility onto other people，例如：（1）He did not shirk his duty in the matter（這件事情，他盡了責）。（2）When anything goes wrong, you can be sure that Mr Tsang will shift his responsibility onto a subordinate（一有什麼出錯，曾先生一定會把責任推卸給下屬）。 又英文俚語有skive一字，指規避工作，例如有工作就缺席、早退等，和「卸膊」差不多，例如：He often skives work（他見到工作，往往就避之則吉）。這樣的卸膊者，叫做shirker或skiver。 問：Philip became acquainted with Kathy（菲力浦認識了凱西）這一句，兩個動詞為什麼連用，而且都用過去式？ 答：Become / get（成為）和be（即is、were等，解作「是」）、appear / seem / look / sound（似乎是、看來或聽來似乎是）、remain / stay（仍然是）、prove（結果證明是）等動詞，叫做link verb（連繫動詞），其後都可用形容詞或作用等於形容詞的分詞（participle，即ing或ed形式動詞），例如：（1）He appears / appeared interested in the suggestion（他似乎對這建議感到興趣）。（2）He gets / got tired very easily（他很容易感到疲倦）。讀者示下那一句的became acquainted，就是用這構詞法。
