Gambling
Gambling is actually playing games of chance, such as cards, for money. People regard gambling as wrong, although at first sight it is difficult to show it is wrong. It is true that in a game of chance, one of the parties must Jose money, however, the gain of the other cannot be called robbery since both parties willingly agree to run the risk.
Perhaps a comparison of gambling with dueling will help us see why gambling is evil. In a duel, as in a game of chance, both parties willingly agree to run a risk. But in civilized coun tries, duelinglis a crime because law and order in the state wil break down if every citizen can take the law into his own hands and avenge an injury himself. Gambling is condemned for the sane reason: the effect of gambling is injurious not only to the individual but also to society.
The evils of gambling are in fact many. It discourages habits of industry by holding out before men the hope of getting rich quickly without work. Besides this, it often be comes a habit which can throw a man and his family into misery. Moreover, it often ends up in theft and robbery, even in crimes of violence. Therefore, it must be regarded as a social evil.
[點(diǎn)評(píng)]
作者在第一段里告訴我們什么是,在第一段里將與決斗作了比較,說(shuō)明它是犯罪,在第二段里講述了帶來(lái)的后果。文章思路清楚、明確,比喻恰當(dāng)、貼切,語(yǔ)言明白、易懂。
[參考譯文]
就是為了錢(qián)而玩風(fēng)險(xiǎn)游戲,比如玩紙牌。盡管,乍一看也看不出有什么不正當(dāng)之處,但人們還是把看作是不正當(dāng)之事。事實(shí)正是如此:在風(fēng)險(xiǎn)游戲中,一方肯定要輸錢(qián),而贏的'一方也不能叫做強(qiáng)盜,因?yàn)殡p方都情愿冒這個(gè)險(xiǎn)。
將和決斗做一比較也許會(huì)使我們明白為什么說(shuō)是罪惡。在一場(chǎng)決斗中,和一場(chǎng)風(fēng)險(xiǎn)游戲中一樣,雙方都甘心情愿冒險(xiǎn)。但是在文明國(guó)家中,決斗就是犯罪。因?yàn)槿绻總(gè)公民都將法律掌握在自己的手中,自己去報(bào)仇,那么國(guó)家的法律和秩序就會(huì)崩潰。被認(rèn)為是不正當(dāng)?shù)囊彩浅鲇谕瑯拥脑颍涸斐傻暮蠊粌H對(duì)個(gè)人是有害的,而且對(duì)社會(huì)也是有害的。
的罪惡之處其實(shí)很多。它在人們面前展現(xiàn)山可以不勞動(dòng)而快速致富的希望,從而使人們想丟掉勤勞奮斗的好習(xí)慣。除此之外,它還經(jīng)常使人家破人亡。還有,它總是帶給人的結(jié)局是:偷盜、搶劫、甚至暴力犯罪。所以,我們必須將它看作是一種對(duì)社會(huì)有極大壞處的因素。
