迷你對話：

A:To my surprise, John seems to be very unsatisfied with his wife. I think they are well-off.

約翰對他的妻子不滿，這可真奇怪。我還以為他們是恩愛夫妻了。

B:It’s natural. John’s neighbors are in fat city.

這很正常，他們的鄰居生活條件都很好。

A:I see, to catch up with the Johnson’, isn’t it?

原來是這樣，要趕時髦啊，不是么？

地道表達：

fat city：舒適成功的條件

解詞釋義：

fat本義是“油膩的”，引申為“富裕的，茂盛的”，而city是泛指“地方，地域”。fat city原意是“極為舒適的生活環境，富裕”，后引申為“舒適成功的條件”。

支持范例：

Eg.You can tell that that guy is in fat city .

看得出那個男孩生活富裕。

Eg.You can tell by their car that they are in fat city.
