love-is-a-fallacy英文赏析

The story was set in one of the Universities in the United States of America。

Dobie, according to his own assessment, is a cool,logical,keen, calculating,perspicacious,acute and astute guy who wanted to have a girl named Polly. Polly was a beautiful, gracious,intelligent girl。

Polly by then was dating the main character's roommate Petey。

Petey was eager to have a raccoon coat so that he can be in the swim as the Big Men in campus。

Dobie wanted to exchange the girl by giving him a raccoon coat. The narrator’s tone was humorous in the later story when he was hanging out with Polly and he thought he was excellent enough to date with Polly。

Rather than being nothing upstairs and emotional type just like Petey, he taught Polly 8 logic fallacies in order to make her smart. However, it is a satire that the girl turn down Dobie’s request of being his girlfriend with the logical statement Dobie taught her。

love is a fallacy爱情观

love is a fallacy爱情观

love is a fallacy爱情观“Love is a fallacy”这句话指的是“爱情是谬论”,定义了一些人对爱情的看法。

这种观点引出了一些对爱情的讨论,相信很多人会对这个话题状态很感兴趣。

在这篇文章中,我将逐步分析这个论点并阐述我的观点。

第一步,解释“谬论”的意思。

谬论是指无法证明却被人们普遍固守的信念。

关于爱情和婚姻的看法,往往是因为被文化和传统的束缚而产生的。

很多人会相信,爱情是存在的一种特殊的感情,它经常伴随着人们的幸福,让他们感到完美和满足。

但是这种看法并没有被科学证明,也没有任何证据能够表明,它是真的。

第二步,列举对于论点的支持或是反驳的证据。

对于这个问题,很多人会有不同的看法。

有些人会认为,爱情是存在的,只需要找到对的人,并付出真诚的感情,就能得到相应的回报。

不过,也有一些人不相信爱情的存在,他们认为情感只是瞬间的感性冲动,而且情绪的波动是容易变化的,所以爱情只是短暂的和虚无的。

第三步,提出个人的看法并解释其原因。

在我的观点中,我认为爱情是存在的。

尽管这是一种难以解释的情感,但是我相信在有些人身上,爱情的感觉是很真实的。

当你找到一个你想在一起,能够彼此了解并在一起共度一生的伴侣时,爱情就会存在。

当然,这个观点也有一些限制,比如在关于感情的自由、相互尊重和信任等方面也可以帮助更好地维持关系的稳定。

总结起来,爱情是一个充满争议的话题。

尽管有些人认为它是一种谬论,没有被证实,但是我相信爱情是存在的,并能够实现和持久。

当然,每个人的看法和经历都是不同的,人们应该随着自己的感受和信仰,去寻找属于自己的爱情观。

Polly was a beautiful, gracious, intelligent girl. Polly by then was dating the main character's roommate Petey. Petey was eager to have a raccoon coat so that he can be in the swim as the Big Men in campus. Dobie wanted to exchange the girl by giving him a raccoon coat.

Rather than being nothing upstairs and emotional type just like Petey, he taught Polly 8 logic fallacies in order to make her smart. However, it is a satire that the girl turn down Dobie’s request of being his girlfriend with the logical statement Dobie taught her. And it is also a satire that Polly finally received Petey’s love just because he had a raccoon coat.The love relationship between the three characters is actually a fallacy itself. Dobie thought love was only to be a perfect guy so as to deserve a perfect girlfriend. After his great endeavor to perfect Polly to have a logic thinking, Polly got her acknowledge of love, that is follow her own desire. Petey thought he lost his lover when he accept Dobie’s raccoon coat, however, he was the last one to ownPolly as he had a raccoon coat. All the three were given the result they hadn’t expected at first.In my opinion, the funny story was exiting due to the wrong personal value in campus and society. Petey was dying of being in the swim first. If he hadn’t had this thought or the school wouldn’t take library as a unnoticeable place, Dobie therefore couldn’t had the chance to get close to Polly while Petey could go steady with her from the beginning. We can also criticize the society of forming the value that lover is determined to be the wife in the later time. Or you could have the priority to choose someone since you are better than others in some area. Love is equal, and you have no right to reshape the girl or boy since you want to.。

love is a fallacy 爱情是谬误

love is a fallacy 爱情是谬误

在进入今天主题,讲述我和小美的故事之前我想先给大家推荐这样的一片文章,其实正是因为我自己的经历我才深深的懂得了这篇文章的内在,而我希望将它跟大家分享,如果你在爱情里面遇到类似的问题,那么我相信这篇文章会给你一点启示的,当然同时,你也可以提升自己的英文。

Love Is a Fallacy《爱情是个谬误》这是一篇我非常喜欢的文章,这也是在大学里我教授的三年级外语专业学生高级英语课本里面的一篇经典文章,国外的大学生也会同步在写作课学习这篇文章。

以前我喜欢它只是单纯把它当做一篇幽默的文章来对待,其实也没有深深的去体会过其中滋味,但是现在我才真正体会到为什么爱情是一个谬误。

主人公是一个非常自信甚至很自负的法学院大一男生Dobbie,他自认为又帅,又有才,他看上了自己室友的女友,很想得到那个女生,但是这个女生Polly 只是一个表面很漂亮但却很没有脑子的女生,所以Dobbie决定要先改变这个女孩,把她变聪明之后再得到她。

当然第一步是得先得到室友的同意。

室友是一个拜金狂,依然没有脑子,于是Dobbie用一件浣熊大衣作为交换条件就轻松得到了室友的许可,于是就和Polly开始约会了。

约会的内容就是教不同的逻辑谬误给Polly,为的就是让她变聪明,因为主人公认为逻辑是让人变聪明的法宝,于是约会就这么开始了,他教授的逻辑问题如下:1. 绝对判断(Dicto Simpliciter)的谬误。

例子如下:“运动是非常有益的,它能增强体质,所以每个人都应该做运动!”,这个论断是明显错误的,因为运动有益是一种无条件的前提。

比方说,假设你得了心脏病,运动不但无益,反而有害,有不少人医生就不准他们运动。

你必须给这种前提加以限制。

你应该说,一般来说运动是有益的。

或者说,对大多数人是有益的。

否则就是犯了绝对判断的错误2. 草率结论(Hasty Generalization)的谬误。

例子如下:“你不会讲法语,我不会讲法语,皮蒂也不会讲法语。

7. Metonymy (She was, to be sure, a girl who excited the emotions. But I was not one to let my heart rule my head.)
8. Antithesis (It is, after all, easier to make a beautiful dumb girl smart than to make an ugly smart girl beautiful.)
Rhetorical devices in the story
1. Inversion (Cool was I and logical. // Beautiful she was. Gracious she was. Intelligent she was not. )
2. Metaphor (My brain, that precision instrument, slipped into high gear.)
9. Analogy (It was like digging a tunnel. At first, everything was work, sweat, and darkness. … But I persisted. I pounded and clawed and scraped, and finally I was rewarded. I saw a chink of light. And then the chink got bigger and the sun came pouring in and all was bright.)

Writing Style
Max Shulman has a good style. The story goes forward at a fast pace with racy dialogues full of American colloquialism and slang. He employs a whole variety of writing techniques to make his story vivid. He use ultra learned terms to reveal the conceit of the narrator and clipped vulgar forms to illustrate Polly Espy’s limited intellectual capability. He also use figurative language profusely and inversion for emphasis. The speed of the narration is maintained by the use of short sentences, elliptical sentences and dashes throughout the story. The combination of all these help to make the story realistic, as one would expect a freshman to talk like that.

He is quite sure of his final success because he is smarter and it is only logical that the girl will choose him.

He also use figurative language profusely and inversion for emphasis. The speed of the narration is maintained by the use of short sentences, elliptical sentences and dashes throughout the story.
