Question

yuppie n.雅皮士(属于中上阶层的年轻专业人士) (1) 这个字是用来形容年轻又有钱的专业人士。(2) 你能接受雅痞的观念吗？ In the mid-1980's, people started using the derogatory term yuppie to talk about a particular group of middle-class, well-educated workers. Yuppies are distinguished by their disposable income and the things on which they choose to spend it, like clothes, food, and cars. Yuppie is a shortened form of "young urban professional," and its popularity won out over other acronyms of the time, "yumpie," for "young upwardly mobile professional, and "yap," for "young aspiring professional."
