遇到两个单词,很值得分享:

junket 公费旅游/出行

科林斯的定义是:If you describe a trip or visit by an official or businessman as a junket, you disapprove of it because it is expensive, unnecessary, and often has been paid for with public money. 

分享几个例句:

The CEO's junket to the luxury resort raised eyebrows among shareholders, who questioned the necessity of such an extravagant business trip.

As a travel journalist, I was invited on a junket to explore and write about the newest hotel in the Maldives.

sinecure 闲职

科林斯的定义是:A senicure is a job for which you receive payment but which does not involve much work or responsibility. 

举两个例子:

Despite being paid handsomely, his role at the company was essentially a sinecure, with no real responsibilities attached.

The manager created a sinecure for his cousin, giving him a title but no real tasks to perform in the office.
