格言論證
维基百科，自由的百科全书
格言論證或以格言終止思考（thought-terminating cliché）是一種非形式謬誤，係
僅依格言、俗諺或民間智慧證成主張，而不考慮其背後理據與適用情境。
許多俗諺往往在某些情境下成立，然而未經思考將之套用至普遍的情況，卻是不恰當的。
示例
例一：明天就要考試了，我還沒唸書，不過「船到橋頭自然直」，就別管它了。
例二：老子曰「民不畏死，奈何以死懼之」，所以死刑無用，應該廢除。
例三：「愛他就不要傷害他」，如果父母真的愛自己的子女、老師真的關心自己的學生
，就不該打罵他們。 |

原文：The Spirit of May 35th （载《纽约时报》—中国来信， 2011年6月23日）
译者：爻义
你可能认为5月35日是个虚拟的日子，但在中国，它是真实存在的。它指的实际上是6月
4日，1989年发生“天安门事件“的日子，这个词在互联网上被禁掉了，人们于是使用
“5月35日”来逃避审查和纪念那天发生的事。
今年早些时候我访问台湾的时候，我的书《十个词汇里的中国》在那儿刚刚出版。我被
问到，“为什么这本书不能在大陆出版，而你的小说《兄弟》却可以？”
这就是虚构与非虚构的差别：尽管两本书都是关于当代中国的，《兄弟》触及的是隐晦
的事因而可以成为漏网之鱼，而《十个词汇里的中国》过于直白，逃不过审查。
“《兄弟》是5月35日”，我解释道，“而《十个词汇里的中国》更像6月4日。”

你在哪个大学当教授？你的这种水平和治学态度，难道不怕砸了大学的牌子，难道不怕
误人子弟？
你的原句是“But indeed the original lake was turned into a dam of sort.”
如果把“of sort”改为“of a sort”,根据字典的意思，“having some but not all
of the characteristics of something ”
http://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/of+a+sort
与你上下文所要表达的意思基本相符，即你认为像个水坝但又不是真正的水库的水坝。
英语没有“of sort”这个短语，你可以分别Google一下“of a sort”和“of sort”。Google时要加引号。
用一句土话说，你这叫咬着根屎蹶子，用根油条都换不下来。你的英语是臭到家了。
希望你今后在中文论坛发帖子，就不要用英文来恶心我们了。
对不起，我说的话有点重了，希望有利于你今后治学更加严谨，希望有利于你们学校的
学生。
