[誤] These people are in different situations, so we cannot adopt the policy of cutting with one knife in

dealing with them.

[正] These people are in different situations, so we cannot adopt the policy of cutting at one stroke in dealing

with them.

注：“一刀切”不是使用同一把刀切東西，而是比喻不顧實(shí)際情況的不同而采取相同的處理方法。stroke 在這里指一刀切下去的動(dòng)作，所以用作比喻非常形象。
