帮忙翻译一下这句英语， 在给我讲解一下谢谢！
yet we might grudge paying a surgeon a high fee for offering us precisely this service。我的翻译是：“但我们并不愿意为了外科大夫提供给我们的细心服务而给他高额的报酬”。请问我的翻译对吗？？？？？上一句的意思是“为了挽救自己的生命我们愿意付出...
.，注意有个yet..之类的话，然而，这句话其实是指责一些人的心态问题，很多人嘴上说如果能治好我的病我就愿意付出.，然而我们却在考虑医生为我们提供的医疗是否值得不值得的问题，这个是作者所要表达的中心你的翻译正确

来自团队：
Yet we might grudge paying a surgent a high fee foroffering us precisely this serviceGrudge 心中不是很满意，Precisely this service译成 只是这一种服务，precisely =just 译成细心服务不是很恰当 整句的意思：但对外科大夫只提供这一种服务而付出高额的报酬，心中总觉得不满
相对于一个人的生命来说，以前曾是这样的，如果有人救了你一命，你愿以全部家产来回报救命之恩，可现在，医生成为一种职业，因此治病救人，救死扶伤，被救的人出钱，被看成是天经地义的，甚至，即使是医生救了你的命，你还觉得他收费太高，大致就是这样的情况吧要从文化背景去考虑，不要受语法的限制，记住，学好一种语言，是不可能通过翻译来学好的，不要太依赖中文
供参考你的处理大致上可以接受但有两点要留意(1) might 这个字的处理
这里带出了’可能‘﹐‘也许’之意
而你的译文中‘并不愿意’就略嫌过於肯定(2) precisely 这个字确有'细心‘之意
A双语的理解很好
这里的意思应当是‘就只是’
就只是这服务建议译文﹕
然而﹐(我们)为了获得就只是这样(precisely)的服务而给予(一名)外科医生大笔费用﹐我们也许(might)心有不甘。
yet有转拆的作用
所以与前文的意思相反是合理的
如果原文没有对this service的批评
作者可能是 想指出‘病人的矛盾’
即为‘挽救自己的生命’愿意付出一切
为‘this service’就不愿意付出较多的费用

你可能喜欢ScalersTalk 新概念三朗读小组第 23 周训练日志
Scalers点评：关于英语朗读，我做了A/B/C三个群（C群群号:），开放给所有用户。C群用户可以通过练级升级到B群，B群同理可以升级到A。我以前讲过一次朗读的公开课，介绍关于如何入手操作朗读。参见：。
除此之外，我在成长会内部又单独成立了一个新概念朗读小组，并且提供专门的课程辅导《如何榨干一段朗读材料？》，提供更高级全面的操作步骤，便于成长会内部成员的朗读交流与进步。
16 年 12 月中旬我在李笑来老师的一块听听平台上做了一个关于英语核心技能树的直播讲座，正式推出 ScalersTalk 英语核心技能树的概念。目前直播结束，如果你想了解现在还可以回听。之前说过，打算到 1 万人以后再涨一次价，而现在正好是 10000 多人，故价格向上进行一次微调，以后估计还会涨。参见：《ScalersTalk 英语核心技能树高清版下载》。
还有好玩儿的，最近我们搞了一个视频课程，《利用政府工作报告中英双语突破翻译》，17 年 6 月 6 日起正式上线网易云课堂了，这门课讲的是从汉语到英语的翻译技术，主要是突破翻译的四大核心技巧，面向的群体是英语爱好者；翻译学习者；希望提升思考格局、开拓视野的学习者；同时，如果备考 CATTI 二级、三级笔译；MTI 考研；高级口译等，也适合学习。感兴趣的可以参考：重磅上线网易云课堂。
成长会新概念朗读小组简介
成长会新概念小组是 ScalersTalk 成长会旗下朗读小组群。本小组采用的教材为新概念二、三、四。由于大家起点不一，17 年将朗读小组全面升级为朗读训练营。按照构建英语核心技能树的不同阶段选择不同册别，将朗读小组立体化，各子群单独训练、齐头并进。每周一至周六将当天文章练习结果以语音的形式发送到 QQ 群进行成员互评，每周日进行一次复盘总结。每册教材在每轮朗读完成后，成员可在新概念训练营下各子群中自行选择轮次循环或进阶迭代。新概念朗读训练营仅面向成长会成员开放。目前新概念二朗读第一轮已结束，第二轮正在进行；新概念三第一轮刚刚结束，第二轮自 1 月 16 日起全新起航。这里是新概念三第二轮 2017 年第 23 周训练日志。
DAY111 L27-1: Nothing to sell and nothing to buy
It has been said that everyone lives by selling something. In the light of this statement, teachers live by selling knowledge, philosophers by selling wisdom and priests by selling spiritual comfort. Though it may be possible to measure the value of material goods in terms of money,it is extremely difficult to estimate the true value of the services which people perform for us.

句式、语法： It has been said that… Though it may be possible to do…,it is extremely difficult to do…
it 形式主语，that 从句 / to do 不定式作逻辑主语
difficult 在此语境下可以理解为 possible 的反义词，极为困难（不可能），一种对顶修饰。
精妙翻译：
In the light of this statement, teachers live by selling knowledge, philosophers by selling wisdom and priests by selling spiritual comfort.
根据这种说法，教师靠卖知识为生，哲学家靠卖智慧为生，牧师靠卖精神安慰为生。
排比句体现文采，最后 2 个省略动词 live，省略句使文章简洁生动。
DAY112 L27-2: Nothing to sell and nothing to buy
There are times when we would willingly give everything we possess to save our lives, yet we might grudge paying a surgeon a high fee for offering us precisely this service. The conditions of society are such that skills have to be paid for in the same way that goods are paid for at a shop. Everyone has something to sell. Tramps seem to be the only exception to this general rule.

长难句、语法：
There are times when we would willingly give everything we possess to save our lives, yet we might grudge paying a surgeon a high fee for offering us precisely this service.
整体为 yet 并列连接词引导的并列句。when 从句修饰 times，we possess修饰 everything
precisely 修饰的是什么？修饰 offer 动词。当动词后接较长的介词短语/宾语时，副词通常紧随动词之后，在介词短语/宾语之前。
精妙翻译：
The conditions of society are such that skills have to be paid for in the same way that goods are paid for at a shop.
社会上的情况就是如此，技术是必须付钱去买的，就像在商店里要花钱买商品一样。
注意 such that 的翻译。
DAY113 L27-3: Nothing to sell and nothing to buy
Beggars almost sell themselves as human beings to arouse the pity of passers-by. But real tramps are not beggars.They have nothing to sell and require nothing from others.

effect 指由于行动、步骤、人或事物直接产生的结果或效果，与原因有直接的联系，与 motive “动机”和 cause “原因”相对应。

说起流浪汉，我们常常带有轻蔑并把他们与乞丐归为一类。但是，我们中有多少人能够坦率地说我们对流浪汉的简朴生活与无忧无虑的境况不感到有些羡慕呢？
调整中文语序，使译文流畅自然。注意 envious 的翻译“羡慕”，需在理解作者态度基础上择词翻译。
