原文呈现

A FACT OR AN OPINION?

What is a fact？Is it something that people believe？No.A fact is anything that can be proved.For example，it can be proved that China has more people than any other① country in the world.This is a fact.

Then what is an opinion？An opinion is what someone believes is true but has not been proved.So an opinion is not good evidence②in a trial③.For example，it is an opinion if you say“Cats are better pets than dogs”．It may be true，but it is difficult to prove.Some people may not agree with④ this opinion but they also cannot prove that they are right.

In a trial，a judge must decide which eyewitnesses⑤ to believe and which not to believe.The judge does not consider what each eyewitness looks like or where that person lives or works.He/She only cares about⑥ whether the eyewitness has given true information，which must be facts rather than⑦ opinions.This kind of information is called evidence.

课文译文

事实还是看法？

什么是事实？是人们相信的某一件事吗？不。事实是能够被证实的任何事情。比如，人们能够证实中国的人口比世界上任何其他的国家的人口都多，这就是事实。

那么，什么是看法？看法就是某人认为是真实的但未经证实的东西。因此，在审判中看法并不是有说服力的证据。比如，如果你说“猫是比狗更好的宠物”，这就是一种看法。这种看法可能是对的，但是它难以被证实。一些人可能不同意这种看法，但是他们也不能证明他们是正确的。

在审判中，法官必须断定哪些目击者(的话)可以相信，哪些目击者(的话)不可以相信。法官并不考虑目击者的长相如何，也不考虑那个人住在哪里或在哪里工作。他/她只关心目击者是否提供了真实的信息，这些信息必须是事实，而不是看法。这种信息叫作证据。
