对...直言不讳

Notice that, even in the context of a heart-rending compassion, Jesus in gratingly blunt in His pronouncement of doom: The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side. They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls.

请注意，耶稣即使对耶路撒冷充满了怜悯和悲伤，祂还是直言不讳的宣布了该城毁灭的厄运：「日子将到，你的仇敌必筑起土垒，周围环绕你，四面困住你，并要毁灭你和你里头的儿女，连一块石头也不留在石头上……。

Ms Wineapple's bravura critique of this landmark letter, matched by her incisive and readable analysis of the poetry, teases out the ambiguities of Dickinson's strange personality: her simultaneous desire to reveal and conceal herself, her coy dishonesties and blazing truths, her Olympian knowingness and need for reassurance.

Wineapple女士对于这封里程碑式的信件进行了大胆的评论，同时对诗歌进行了深入浅出的分析，并由此颇带些揶揄意味的引出了迪金森乖僻性格的矛盾特征：她既希望展示自己又想将自己隐藏起来；她有时矫揉造作，有时又直言不讳；她有天神般的睿智精明，却又总是患得患失。

I'll make no bones about it-I don't think you did a good job of painting my house.

Lahey's passion for bread-making and feeding people carries the book; his plainspoken advice and patient tutelage provide novices with a sure, steady hand to hold; and his methods will surely be adopted by chefs and bakers of all stripes.

雷希对面包的决策和人民的热情进行喂养的书，他直言不讳的意见和病人监护提供了一个肯定的是，稳定的手新手举行；和他的做法必将受到厨师和形形色色贝克斯通过。

But the Christian right is not vocally opposed to reproductive technology. By contrast they fiercely oppose stem-cell research on the ground that it destroys embryos—even when the embryos used for research are IVF extras. IVF yields babies, which is generally something the "pro-family" right approved of.

不过，这个基督教右派组织并未直言不讳地对生殖技术表示反对，相反他们强烈反对进行干细胞研究，原因在于后者破坏了胚胎，就算是所破坏的胚胎是IVF产生的多余胚胎也同样如此，而这个"支持家庭"的右派组织却并不反对IVF，因为它是在创造生命。

There is an old charter which puts the matter naively: apropos of fidelity:~Civibus fidelitas in reges, quoe tamen aliquoties seditionibus interrypta, multa peperit privileyia~.

We have no common name for a mime of Sophron or Xenarchus and a Socratic Conversation; and we should still be without one even if the imitation in the two instances were in trimeters or elegiacs or some other kind of verse--though it is the way with people to tack on 'poet' to the name of a metre, and talk of elegiac-poets and epic-poets, thinking that they call them poets not by reason of the imitative nature of their work, but indiscriminately by reason of the metre they write in.

索夫农 、森那库斯和苏格拉底式的对话采用的模仿没有一个公共的名称；三音步诗、挽歌体或其他类型的诗的模仿也没有——人们把&诗人&这一名词和格律名称结合到一起，称之为挽歌体诗人或者史诗诗人，他们被称为诗人，似乎只是因为遵守格律写作，而非他们作品的模仿本质。

The relationship between communicative competence and grammar teaching should be that of the ends and the means.
