Benefit of something是什么意思?
母语人士的回答

Give someone the benefit of the doubt意味着要相信某人为诚实,除非事实证明这是真的。换句话说,他不知道自己是否诚实,但他愿意相信。演讲者的说法是要指出,她的妹妹不相信她的母亲,并且总是怀疑。例子: The employee said she was late because of a traffic jam, so her boss gave her the benefit of the doubt. (当员工说因为交通堵塞而迟到时,她的老板决定信任它。)例子: Give me the benefit of the doubt. I have never lied to you. (先相信她。你看到我在说谎吗?)
