85 it stands to reason
(it stands to reason (редк. to sense))само собой разумеется, совершенно очевидно, спору нет, здравый смысл подсказываетIf father was determined to make me either a Prig or a Mule, and I am not a Prig, why, it stands to reason, I must be a Mule. (Ch. Dickens, ‘Hard Times’, book I, ch. VII) — Отец хотел сделать из меня либо мошенника, либо олуха. А раз я не мошенник, то, значит, олух.
After old Roy other men seem just a tiny little bit dull. It stands to sense that I should want to see the old thing now and again. (C. P. Snow, ‘The Light and the Dark’, ch. XXIX) — После Роя другие мужчины кажутся мне скучноватыми. Ясно как день, что мне захочется иногда встретиться со стариной Роем.
...I've never hit a woman yet in my whole life. And it stands to reason that I wouldn't start doing it now. (E. Caldwell, ‘Claudelle Inglish’, ch. II) —...за всю свою жизнь я ни разу не ударил женщины. И само собой разумеется, не ударю и сейчас.
