词汇讲解
1. be lacking in sth.=lack sth. phrase.
中文释义:缺乏…,缺少…,需要…;
英文释义: not to have something that you need, or not to have enough of it
例句:We are lacking in ideas.
2. nicety noun.细节; 细微; 微妙; 细微之处;

活学活用
be lacking in phrase. 缺乏
英文:She seemed to be lacking in frankness.
中文:她似乎不够坦率。

语法讲解
that为连接词,引导宾语从句。在从句中,most作主语,you consider evil or wicked是定语从句,省略了引导词that/which。
此处注意,most在此处并不是many的最高级形式,而是形容词“大多数”的意思。最高级前most加the.
