今日一招：
“四两拨千斤”
解读：一句话完成“对比”性的讨论
“
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
It is better to work for a business owned by someone else than to work for a business owned by your family.
”
我们以【立场：work for a business owned by someone else】为例，展示这一招“四两拨千斤”：
先讨论对方的劣势：如果work for a business owned by my family，可能会让我感到不适。
If I work for a business owned by my family, the atmosphere of the company may feel strange, making me uncomfortable. This is my case, actually. I declined the offer from my uncle’s company for the consideration that since I may be recognized as the nephew of the company’s owner, other staff may show a defensive attitude and gesture when they work with me. They may exchange ideas behind my back, and although those ideas may not be bad words about the company, they would not involve me in the discussion. Meanwhile, the office may be a stressful place, because there in their eye is a spy or a snitcher, which is me. I do not think that I could feel comfortable working in such an environment as my coworkers would behave with too much discretion in front of me.
至此，我们发现，我们充分讨论了对方的不利之处。然而，我们还没有拿对方的不利之处对比于我方立场。紧张么?不慌。“四两拨千斤”，一句话说明这个劣势/不利的情况在我方的立场下不出现。
This awkward situation would not happen to me in the case that I work at a company that is not my family’s.
对比论证其实就完成了。
