Verb:
deprive of by deceit;He swindled me out of my inheritance She defrauded the customers who trusted her the cashier gypped me when he gave me too little change avoid one's assigned duties;The derelict soldier shirked his duties goldbrick的字面意义为“金砖”，但实际古义却是“假金砖”。该词源出19世纪中期的美国淘金热日1848年1月24日在加利福尼亚州发现了黄金。次年，想发财的人纷纷涌向西海岸，被人们称为forty-niners49年冒险家的淘金者据估计约有8万名。矿工采出金子以后，为了便于搬运，往往把金子铸成金砖，goldbrick一词就应运而生了。开初，goldbrick确一度指“金砖”。后来有的骗子利用一些人的贪婪心理，用铅或铁铸成块，然后在表面镀上一层金。这些外表像是纯金的金砖使不少人上了当，受了骗。有记载说，圣路易有一位名叫Patrick Burke的人在1887年花了3700美元买了一块假金砖。不久，goldbrick 一词就开始用来喻指“假金砖”、“冒牌货”、“虚有其表的东西”。在第一次世界大战期间，士兵们接过这个词，用来指那些直接征自民间，而未受过军事训练的军官。这些人往往受到部属的轻视。以后，goldbrick的词义又进而引申为“逃避工作的人”、“偷懒的人”，在第二次世界大战期间非常通用，并且一直借用至今。这一类人想显示自己的能力以博得同事的好评而又借故什么也不干，因此人们就以早期开发西部那些骗人的goldbrick喻之。goldbrick在作动词用时则表示“逃避工作”或“诈骗”等义。GRE红宝书gold金, brick砖: 金砖都不捡, 真XX懒!
