More than 170 students from Fudan University signed a petition pleading for leniency for a former postgraduate student who received the death sentence in February for killing his roommate by poisoning.
170多名復旦大學學生發(fā)出聯名求情信，請求對因投毒殺害室友而在今年2月被判處死刑的該校一名研究生從輕判決。
在英文中，“求情”多用plead或intercede表示，常見的搭配為plead/intercede with someone for something/someone（為某事或某人向某人求情），如：He interceded with the teacher for me.
我們平時說到對犯罪分子的懲罰原則時經常會提到“寬嚴相濟”，這個原則在英語中可用tempering justice with mercy表示；另外，審訊嫌疑人時警方最常用的那句“坦白從寬，抗拒從嚴”則多用leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist來表示。
