Quotations from Dobie Gillis (1)
"My name is Dobie Gillis and I like girls. What am I saying? I love girls! Love 'em! Beautiful, gorgeous, soft, round, creamy girls. Now, I'm not a wolf, mind you. No, you see a wolf wants lots of girls, but me? Well, I just want one. One beautiful, gorgeous, soft, round, creamy girl for my very own. That's all I want! One lousy girl!""But I'll tell you a sad, hard fact. I'm never gonna get a girl. Never. Why? Because to get a girl you need money . And standing between me and money is a powerful obstacle: a POWERFUL obstacle!"
高级英语2love-is-a-fallacy中英译文
Cool was I and logical. Keen, calculating, perspicacious, acute and astute—I was all of these. My brain was as powerful as a dynamo, precise as a chemist’s scales, as penetrating as a scalpel. And—think of it!—I only eighteen.我这个人头脑冷静，逻辑思维实力强。
敏锐、慎重、聪慧、深刻、机灵一一这些就是我的特点。
我的大脑像发电机一样发达，像化学家的天平一样精确，像手术刀一样锐利。
一一你知道吗?我才十八岁呀。
It is not often that one so young has such a giant intellect. Take, for example, Pete y Bellows, my roommate at the university. Same age, same background, but dumb a s an ox. A nice enough fellow, you understand, but nothing upstairs. Emotional type. Unstable. Impressionable. Worst of all, a faddist. Fads, I submit, are the very negat ion of reason. To be swept up in every new craze that comes along, to surrender o neself to idiocy just because everybody else is doing it—this, to me, is the acme of mindlessness. Not, however, to Petey.年纪这么轻而智力又如此非凡的人并不常有。

The example starts a logical train of thought with an assumption that is false. Not “everyone” wants to get married.
2. 草率结论：由个别情形来推断普遍规则
Hasty Generalization ： It applies a special case to general rule. Example: Wuyifan is handsome; Zhonghanliang is handsome, so you know every man is handsome in the world. The fact that a certain handsome person doesn’t imply that all men is handsome.

Love is a Fallacy 翻译(精选)
Love is a Fallacy 翻译(精选)爱是一个谬论爱情是生活中最美好的事物之一，它是人类情感世界中最真挚、最深沉、最具力量的表达方式。
爱情无国界，无障碍，无年龄。
许多伟大的作家和艺术家都通过他们的作品歌颂了爱情的伟大、复杂和多样性。
然而，一位心理学家却认为爱情是一个谬论。
田·田纳西·威廉斯是一位美国心理学家和哲学家，他在20世纪50年代提出了一种新的理论观点，称爱情是一个谬论。
他认为，爱情是基于人们的欲望和需求，而非真正的感情。
他认为，爱情是一种哲学意义上的谬误，两个人之间的吸引往往是建立在双方互相满足对方需求的基础上。
他批判了传统的浪漫观念，认为这种观念过于理想化，与现实生活中的人际关系格格不入。
威廉斯的观点引起了广泛的争议。
一些人支持他的观点，认为他的理论有一定的道理。
他们认为，人们在选择伴侣时往往受到个人需求和社会因素的影响，而这些因素往往会在爱情中发挥重要的作用。
另一方面，一些人对他的观点表示怀疑。
他们认为，爱情是一种真实的情感，而不仅仅是人们的需求和欲望的产物。
无论威廉斯的观点是否正确，爱情仍然是人们生活中不可或缺的一部分。
爱情可以带给我们温暖、安慰和幸福感。
它可以激发我们的创造力，使我们更加积极向上。
爱情也可以让我们变得更加宽容和理解。
正如一位著名作家所说：“爱情是唯一能让你变得更富有的东西，而不是其他。
”而这正是爱情的伟大之处。
无论爱情是不是一个谬论，它都是我们生活中不可或缺的一部分。
它像是一道阳光，温暖着我们的心灵。
无论在幸福的时刻还是在困难的时刻，爱情都给予我们力量和勇气。
它使我们成为更好的人，让我们更加快乐、满足和有意义的活着。
爱情是多样的，它可以是家庭之爱、友情之爱、亲情之爱、恋爱之爱等等。
无论是哪一种爱情，它都是我们生活中宝贵的财富。
我们应该珍惜和保护爱情，让它在我们的生活中发挥其独特的力量和作用。
总之，尽管有人认为爱情是一个谬论，但它仍然是我们生活中最重要的一部分。

第五单元课文翻译爱情就是谬误马克斯·舒尔曼1）．查尔斯·兰姆是一个世所罕见的性情欢快、富有进取心的人，他那笔下的散文《古瓷器》和《梦中的孩子)无拘无束、自由奔放，实在令人难忘。
下面这篇文章比兰姆的作品更加自由奔放。
实际上，用“自由奔放”的字眼来形容这篇文章并不十分确切，或许用“柔软”、“轻松”或“轻软而富有弹性”更为恰如其分。
2）．尽管很难说清这篇文章是属于哪一类，但可以肯定它是一篇散文小品文。
它提出了论点，引用了许多例证，并得出了结论。
卡莱尔能写得更好吗? 罗斯金呢?3）．这篇文章意在论证逻辑学非但不枯燥乏味，而且活泼、清新、富于美感和激情，并给人以启迪。
诸位不妨一读o——作者注1．我这个人头脑冷静，逻辑思维能力强。
敏锐、慎重、聪慧、深刻、机智——这些就是我的特点。
我的大脑像发电机一样发达，像化学家的天平一样精确，像手术刀一样锋利。
——你知道吗?我才十八岁呀。
2．年纪这么轻而智力又如此非凡的人并不常有。
就拿在明尼苏达大学跟我同住一个房间的皮蒂·伯奇来说吧，他跟我年龄相仿，经历一样，可他笨得像头驴。
小伙子长得年轻漂亮，可惜脑子里却空空如也。
他易于激动，情绪反复无常，容易受别人的影响。
最糟的是他爱赶时髦。
我认为，赶时髦就是最缺乏理智的表现。
见到一种新鲜的东西就跟着学，以为别人都在那么干，自己也就卷进去傻干——这在我看来，简直愚蠢至极，但皮蒂却不以为然。
3．一天下午，我看见皮蒂躺在床上，脸上显露出一种痛苦不堪的表情，我立刻断定他是得了阑尾炎。
“别动,”我说，“别吃泻药，我就请医生来。
”4．“浣熊，”他咕哝着说。
5．“浣熊?”我停下来问道。
6．“我要一件浣熊皮大衣，”他痛苦地哭叫着。
7．我明白了，他不是身体不舒服，而是精神上不太正常。
“你为什么要浣熊皮大衣?”8．“我本早该知道，”他哭叫着，用拳头捶打着太阳穴，“我早该知道查尔斯登舞再度流行时，浣熊皮大衣也会时兴起来的。
我真傻，钱都买了课本，可现在不能买浣熊皮大衣了。
