“In times like these, one enemy in our midst can do more harm than ten across the Channel.”
在這種時候,藏在我們中間的一個敵人,比隔海相望的十個還危險。
用一個對十的算術,把安全焦慮講得具體,句短而分量重。
one X ... can do more harm than ten ...
說明內部風險時用,適合正式討論;日常閒聊會顯得誇張。
One traitor at home outweighs ten outside. / A single insider can hurt more than a crowd beyond the wall.
正式
one enemy 重讀,more harm than 連著說,Channel 收穩。
One careless worker here can do more harm than ten rivals outside. 這裡一個粗心的員工,比外面十個對手還危險。
