  【犀利观点】成功&偶然:全段

  Most of us have no difficulty recognizing luck when it's on conspicuous display,as when someone wins the lottery. But randomness often plays out in subtle ways, and it's easy to construct narratives that portray success as having been inevitable.Those stories are almost invariably misleading, however, a simple fact that has surprising implications for public policy.

  当好运以非常引人注目的方式降临,比如有人中了彩票,我们大部分人不难看出来。但这种偶然因素往往以不易察觉的方式起作用,因此人们容易构建出一种逻辑,将成功描绘为必然的。然而,这些成功故事几乎都不可避免地存在误导性,而这样一个简单的事实,会对公共政策产生令人意外的影响。

  have no difficulty doing sth ……并不困难

  【犀利观点】成功&偶然:全段

  Most of us have no difficulty recognizing luck when it's on conspicuous display,as when someone wins the lottery. But randomness often plays out in subtle ways.

  Consider the history of the Mona Lisa, perhaps the most famous painting in the world. After having languished in obscurity for most of its early existence, Leonardo da Vinci's work was pushed into the spotlight in 1911 when it was stolen from the Louvre.

  来看看《蒙娜丽莎》(Mona Lisa)的历史吧。这或许是世界上最知名的一幅画。在诞生之初的大多数时间里,莱昂纳多·达芬奇(Leonardo daVinci)的这幅画作一直默默无闻。直到1911年,它从卢浮宫被盗,方才突然成为众人关注的焦点。

  【大作文万用句式】举例

  Consider …来看看……吧。

  【经典句式】

  the Mona Lisa《蒙娜丽莎》

  languish凋谢;憔悴

  obscurity无名

  existence存在

  Leonardo da Vinci莱昂纳多·达芬奇

  push… into the spotlight 使成为众人关注的焦点

  the Louvre卢浮宫

  The widely publicized theft remained unsolved for two years until Vincenzo Peruggia,an Italian maintenance worker at the Louvre,was apprehended aftertrying to sell the painting to the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy. His arrest provoked a second wave of publicity, with images of the Mona Lisa splashed around the world.

  两年后,这桩广为人知的盗窃事件终于告破。当时,卢浮宫的意大利维修工温琴佐·佩鲁贾(Vincenzo Peruggia)试图将这幅画卖给位于意大利佛罗伦萨的乌菲齐美术馆(Uffizi Gallery),随即被捕。此人归案再次引发人们对《蒙娜丽莎》的广泛关注,它的图片出现在世界各地的媒体上。

  【经典句式】

  widely publicized广为人知的

  theft盗窃

  maintenance worker维修工

  the Louvre卢浮宫

  apprehend逮捕

  arrest逮捕

  provoke激发

  a wave of publicity一波关注

  splash飞溅

  the Mona Lisa《蒙娜丽莎》

  around the world全世界

  Inthe years since, the painting has come to represent Western culture itself. Yet had it never been stolen, most of us would know no more about it than we do of the two obscure Leonardo da Vinci canvases from the same period that hang in an adjacent gallery at the Louvre. Like Kim Kardashian, apparently,the Mona Lisa is famous largely for being famous.

  在之后的多年里,这幅画逐渐成为西方文化本身的代表。但是,如果当初没有被盗,我们大多数人对它的了解,不会比莱昂纳多·达芬奇同一时期创作的另外两幅鲜为人知的油画更多。后二者就挂在卢浮宫内与《蒙娜丽莎》相邻的展厅内。显然,就像金·卡戴珊(Kim Kardashian)一样,《蒙娜丽莎》之所以这么出名,很大程度上就是因为大家知道了它的存在。

  【经典句式】

  In the years since, … 后来……

  represent代表

  Western culture 西方文化

  had sth done … 如果…的话…

  obscure 鲜为人知的

  Leonardo da Vinci莱昂纳多·达芬奇

  canvas帆布;油画

  adjacent附近的

  gallery画廊

  the Louvre卢浮宫

  Kim Kardashian金·卡戴珊(美国名人)
