Sometimes a story is so so appalling(骇人听闻的), it captures the public’s attention(吸引公众注意力), including the attention of people who don’t focus on the issue otherwise. Such is the case with the alleged(被指控的) 2024 gang rape at Cornell University.
有时，一个故事骇人听闻到足以抓住公众的注意力，甚至包括那些平时并不关注此类议题的人。康奈尔大学2024年那起被指控的轮奸案就是如此。
For feminists who focus on violence against women or anyone who has ever cared about campus rape, the claims made in Jane Doe’s civil lawsuit against the alleged perpetrators may be unusual in its severity – but we know the statistics that show that somewhere between 20% and 25% of women college students will be the victim of a sexual assault (no statistics tell us what percentage of men students will be rapists).(对于关注针对女性暴力的女权主义者或任何关心校园强奸的人来说，简·多伊民事诉讼中的指控或许严重得非同寻常——但我们知道统计数据表明，20%到25%的女大学生会成为性侵犯的受害者（没有数据告诉我们男学生中强奸犯的比例）。)
对于关注针对女性暴力的女权主义者，或任何曾经关心过校园强奸问题的人来说，简·多伊在民事诉讼中对被指控施暴者提出的指控，其严重程度或许非同寻常——但我们都知道统计数据表明，20%到25%的女大学生会成为性侵犯的受害者（没有任何统计数据告诉我们，男学生中强奸犯的比例是多少）。
This makes the public outcry to punish seven male students miss the point, which is that there are tens of thousands of campus rape stories, few of which make the news.(这使得公众要求惩罚七名男学生的呼声偏离了重点，真正的重点在于：校园强奸事件数以万计，但极少能登上新闻。)
