本句源自SAT官方指南第3套题,历史类,关于女性主义的双篇
If the abstract rights of man will bear discussion and explanation, those of woman, by a parity of reasoning, will not shrink from the same test: though a different opinion prevails in this country, built on the very arguments which you use to justify the oppression of woman—prescription.
生词注解:
abstract 抽象的
parity 同等,尤指在地位和报酬方面
prevail (观点,态度等)盛行
justify证明...有理
oppression压迫
prescription成规,规定
译文:假如抽象的男人权利能经得住讨论和辩解,那么基于同样的理由,妇女权利也不会害怕同样的考验;虽然与此不同的意见在我们国家中占着上风,那种意见的根据也正是您用来替受压迫妇女辩护的理由:成规惯例。
