It is not right that men and women should fear to go on the street at night, and that they should sometimes fear the police as much as the criminals, both of whom sometimes look like mirror images of each other.
    先不看It is not right that，先看 men and women should fear to go on the street at night（男男女女晚上不敢上街），再看they should sometimes fear the police as much as the criminals（有时候他们怕警察不亚于怕罪犯），最后看 both of whom sometimes look like mirror images of each other（二者有时看上去如人和他的镜中映像一样想象），作者说了三句话，那么对于这三句话，作者用It is not right that加以评论：这不正常。这是英语特有的表达方法，例如，在综合英语一上册第一课就有：
    It is good to stop all study activities for one full day.
  同样。作者用It is good 评论了to stop all study activities for one full day（星期六一整天停止一切学习活动）的议论，称是有益的。
   读者不妨仔细体会
