口语积累
1. 众筹 crowdfund
crowd就是“众”，fund做名词是“基金”，做动词就是“筹”，即“为……提供资金”。跟fund类似表示 “为……提供资金”的词还有 finance。会采用“众筹”这种方式的一般都是 “初创企业”或“创业公司”，英文可以说 venture，或 startup。

秦桧被认为是历史上的奸臣，我们可以说他是一个traitor（背叛者，卖国贼），还可以说 treacherous这个形容词来形容。
在口语218期 中我们还介绍过“反面人物”可以用 villain。而岳飞我们可以说他是一个 heroic general（爱国将军）。
形容秦桧“ 坏”，我们可以用 wicked（邪恶的，缺德的）、 evil（凶恶的，邪恶的）、vicious（凶残的，恶毒的）、despicable（卑鄙的）等来描述，此外还可以用infamous（臭名昭著的）来形容他。

4. 下架 take sth off the shelves
产品“下架”可以很形象地用take sth off the shelves，“从架子上拿下来”来表示， 但是注意， fly/jump off the shelves是指“卖得很快，很受欢迎”， hit the shelves即“上架，上市”。“下架”还可以用 recall（召回）或 withdraw（撤回）来表示。
The product has been taken off shelves due to safety concerns.
