2017.5.31【卫报-伦敦恐袭】——神句、词组与思维导图

神句

1.Some will have you believe that Islam is at fault since verses of the Qur’an legitimize such violence, while their opponents point out that the ideology fuelling these acts of terror is a twisted perversion of the religion.

Have sb do sth=letsb do sth=make sb do sth

2.Western policy has often been cited as an important driver, but there are countless law-abiding British citizens of all faiths who disagree with recent foreign policy who do not feel compelled to wreak bloody havoc on account of it.

西方政策经常被认为是一个重要的诱因,然而,无数不赞成近期外交政策的英国公民并没有因此而觉得非得发动血腥暴乱,他们秉持不同信仰且遵纪守法。

这个句子需要花点功夫琢磨才能破解。两个who并列修饰countless law-abiding British citizens,但两个who后面的内容在逻辑上是转折关系,无数不赞成外交政策的人,并没有因此气急败坏,相反,他们遵纪守法。

3.For those who find themselves at odds with the culture of their parents, and yet are met with hostility from the culture of the society they live in, exiting the acculturation paradigm to embrace a third culture that provides them with a sense of belonging may be an appealing option. In this case their minds become fertile ground for radicalization.

对那些和父母观念冲突,在社会中又满遭敌意的人而言,退出文化适应模式加入能给他们带来归属感的第三种文化就成了具有吸引力的一个选择。在这种情况下,激进主义很容易在这些人脑中滋生。

4.Perhaps the low self-esteem brought on by marginalization is the mediator here, traded readily by some disaffected Muslim youths for the perceived sense of purpose and status associated with being a jihadi.

也许由边缘化带来的低自尊是主要载体,愤愤不平的穆斯林青年满心想通过成为圣战分子把它转变成自认为的使命感和地位感。

Perceived sense of:perceived这个词应该来说是英语里特别精妙的一个词,汉语里很难找到直接对应词。指的是自己的主观认知,通常与客观事实都有一段距离。What youperceive is just your interpretation of the reality instead of the realityitself.

5. Although the factors that lead to radicalization are still poorly understood, and are as complex as the acts of terror are devastating, some common themes are evident, and we should respond accordingly.

尽管导致激进主义的原因依然不明,且其复杂程度堪比恐怖行径带来的灾难规模,但有一些线索还是相当明显,需要我们采取相应的措施。

Factors as complex as the acts of terror are devastating

Factors-------------------complex

Acts of terror------------devastating

上下左右分别相互对应,本句主干:Although factors arecomplex, some common themes are evident.
