173. Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not resort to these pseudo-apologies.
译文
真正希望教会自己的孩子如何道歉的家长们应该把道歉视为一种力量的体现,因此不要用虚假的道歉来搪塞。点睛
本句的主干是parents should see it as..., and therefore not resort to...其中,who引导定语从句,修饰parents。wish to do sth.意为“希望做某事,想做某事”,相当于want to do sth.。如:
Please let us know what you wish to do with it. 请告知我方贵方对此欲作何处理。
pseudo意为“假的;冒充的”。如:
This apparent interest of his in modern music is completely pseudo. 他对现代音乐表现出的明显兴趣完全是假装的。
考点归纳
注意resort to的用法。本句中的resort to意为“诉诸,采取(某种手段等)”。如:
If negotiations fail we shall have to resort to strike action. 假如谈判失败,我们就得采取罢工行动。
此外,resort to还有“求助于”的含义。如:
You should resort to your parents. 你应该求助于你的父母。
