there is no point in (固定搭配)

这是一个固定搭配，there is，in，可以省略，point在句中的含义并非我们平常一般词典上见到的释义，先看看牛津词典的释义：

Sense,purpose,or advantage (in or of a course of action,state of affairs,etc.),Chiefly in negative contexts,especially in philosophy.

there is no point in,it has no purpose,it is pointless.

(意义，目标，利益或好处（在行动、事态等的过程中或属于这一过程)，主要用于具有否定意义的上下文中，特别是用在哲学中。）

固定搭配：there is no point in,指“毫无目标的，毫无意义的，浪费时间的”。

there is no point in 有两层含义：

1. 如果你设法做某件，但是你是徒劳的，因为这样做行不通。这种用法也可以定义为:It's no use doing (something)。例如：

(1) There's no point in cramming the day before the test. If I don't know it by now, an extra day of studying isn't going to help.If I don't know it by now, an extra day of studying isn't going to help.

在考试前一天死记硬背是没有意义的。如果我现在还不了解这些知识，多学一天也于事无补。

或者这样：

It's no use cramming the day before the test.

(2) There's no point in getting upset about it—let's just try to find a solution!

为此感到不安无益于事——我们要做的事是寻找解决方案。

(3) A: "What if we call the consulate?" B: "No point. They won't be able to help."

We were pretty disappointed to have lost the championship game, but there's no point in crying over spilt milk. We just have to train harder for next season!

A:“如果我们给领事馆打电话怎么样？” B:“没有意义。他们不能提供任何帮助。“

(4) There was not much point in thinking about it.

思考这件事没有多大意义。

2. 如果你尝试做某事，这件事情会成功，但是这样做对你并无益处。因为你可能已经掌握这项技能，或者做与不做没有什么不同。

例如：

(1) There's no point in studying for Professor Clint's exam. His tests are always so easy.

为Clint教授的考试学习是没有意义的。他的考试一向很简单。

(2) there is no point going into details as to why language has come to be analysed on three major levels rather than two.

没有必要详细说明为什么语言要从三个主要层次而不是两个层次来分析。

(3) There's no point in talking to you if you won't listen.

如果你不想听的话，就没有必要给你讲。
