the benefit of the doubt 是一个特别美好的短语,表示尽管有疑虑,但你仍然选择信任某人。
例如:I didn't know whether his story was true or not, but I decided to give him the benefit of the doubt.(我不知道他说的是真是假,但我决定信任他)
这个短语让我想起《西部世界》里的一个金句:Some people choose to see the ugliness in this world. I choose to see the beauty.(有人选择看到这个世界的丑恶,而我选择看到美好)
