戈爾巴喬夫似乎已經(jīng)熟練掌握這種本領，以至于到了爐火純青的地步：私底下發(fā)表批判性的觀點，但在公開場合又是一套模式性的積極奉承。活像一個克里姆林宮保守勢力的完美接班人。
A mother may demand subservience from a daughter but not from a son; she may pressure one child to conform to her ambitious expectations, but allow another to go her own way.

But this pious subservience that you have ending this passage - and certainly it's consonant with that image from the Nativity Ode - nonetheless, I think it's safe to say that it comes as quite a shock when you consider the sentence as a whole.
但文章結尾這種虔誠的奉獻,當然與耶穌誕生頌當中的比喻是一致的,盡管如此，當你把這句話作為一個整體來考慮的時候,任然會很震驚。
