underdog 专八

She always identifies with the underdog.

她总同情受害者。

We like to help the underdog, forgetting that this places us in the role of the overdog, the person who has the power to grant or to withhold favors.

我们乐于帮助失败者，忘记了这样将我们处于优势，无形中使我们拥有了施舍和收回施舍的权力。

Though it is depressingly rare for the underdog to win in the real world, I'd like to cling to the idea that when they do, they have something special to offer that the overdog does not.

尽管在现实世界中失败者成功的可能性小得令人沮丧，但我愿意坚持这种观点，那就他们获得成功，他们会带来些特别的东西，这些那些天之骄子们所不具备的。
