【字面理解】怀疑的多马

【英文解析】 someone who will refuse to believe something without direct, physical，or personal evidence

【中文解析】不听劝告的人，疑心重的人

【典型例句】① The doctor had told grandfather many times that he needed an operation, but being a doubting Thomas, he refused till it was too late.医生多次告诉祖父他需要 手术，但祖父疑心重，不肯接受，终至病逝。

② Several of the country’s most respected doctors have stated that smoking cigarettes harm one’s health, but there are still many doubting Thomases who are not yet persuaded.虽然这个国家的几位最有名望的医生都说 吸烟有害健康，但还是没有说服许多顽固的怀疑者。

【注释】Thomas是《圣经》中的人物，耶稣的十二门徒之 一。当耶稣复活，回去和门徒相见时，Thomas要亲手触摸耶稣身上的钉痕才肯相信主是真的复活了，所以 a doubting Thomas喻指那些疑心重、不肯轻易接受别 人意见的人。
