But the desire for approbation is perhaps the most deeply seated instinct of civilised man. No one runs so hurriedly to the cover of respectability as the unconventional woman who has exposed herself to the slings and arrows of outraged propriety. I do not believe the people who tell me they do not care a row of pins for the opinion of their fellows. It is the bravado of ignorance. They mean only that they do not fear reproaches for peccadillos which they are convinced none will discover.
老师:这句a row of pins for the opinion of their fellows.没看懂,网上也查不到这句话是什么意思。
即使你在词典中查不到,你的逻辑分析判断也应该能猜出在这里a row of pins只不过是否定句中的一个加强语气的词组,相当于at all.
They don't care a row of pins for the opinion of their fellows. = They don't care at all for the opinion... ...
他们根本/一点儿都不在乎...
