一篇issue范文中不理解的部分,
I agree with the speaker that it is sometimes necessary,and even desirable,for political leaders to withhold information from the public.A contrary view would reveal a naivety about the inherent nature of public politics,and about the sorts of compromises on the part of well-intentioned political leaders necessary in order to further the public's ultimate interests.Nevertheless,we must not allow our political leaders undue freedom to withhold information,otherwise,we risk sanctioning demagoguery and undermining the philosophical underpinnings of any democratic society.
这段的第二句(a contrary view.)在态度上到底是支持还是不支持withhold information contraty view 是指对第一句观点的否定吗?那为什么第三句又来一个neverthless.看不懂啊.

问题解答:

我来补答
第二句话是支持withhold的,他是反证法,意思是如果不withhold,会如何如何,所以必须withhold.他是支持第一句话的.第三句话"尽管如此"是说虽然他支持这个观点,但也不能走极端.
再问: 那文中的contrary view指的是如果公开information的话可能产生的contrary view,是这个意思吗?
再答: 呵呵,不是的。第二句话是说,某些人持有相反的观点,这反映了他们对这方面问题的看法天真幼稚。
