什么是知识?知识是一个模糊的概念,这是带给大家的何凯文每日一句第191句。虽然很多知识出现之初并没有显著的实际功用,但却往往能带来意想不到的好处。文都考研告诉大家,那些能让你真正成长的事,都不会太舒服,但只要坚持下来,就会给你带来蜕变。
2020何凯文每日一句第191句:知识
今天的句子:
The ability to distinguish between fact and opinion, and to constantly question what we call knowledge, is vital to human progress, and something we cannot afford to let slip.
(想想你会怎么出题!)
思考题:
Knowledge about fact and opinion is something that we cannot ignore.
词汇突破:
1.Distinguish 区分
2.Opinion 观点
3.Constantly 持之以恒地
4.Vital 至关重要的
5.Human progress 人类进步
6.Let slip 错过;放开
7.quesiton 质疑
确定主干:
The ability is vital to human progress and is something
切分成分:
1.to distinguish between fact and opinion, and to constantly question what we call knowledge (ability的定语)
2. we cannot afford to let slip(something的定语从句)
参考译文:区分事实和观点和对我们所谓的知识保持怀疑的能力对于人类进步至关重要,这种能力也是我们无法忽视的东西。
思考题:
Knowledge about fact and opinion is something that we cannot ignore.
关于事实和观点的知识是我们不能忽略的东西。
这个说法就是一种偷换;
不是关于事实和观点的知识,而是如何区分观点和事实的能力,以及去质疑我们称之为知识的能力,是我们不能忽视的。
有人说区分观点和事实不就是要知道关于他们的知识吗?
问题又来了:知识是否能等于能力?
所以在不明确概念的时候不要轻易判定为对,除非没有更好的。
