But things were different for their first essay, which was about the question: “Why is writing important?” Most of the essays filled less than one page, and few contained a sentence that could be interpreted as a thesis(论点) statement. I was shocked. Then I realized that the problem was the question itself. They could have written pages on the necessity of computers, but writing, in and of itself, simply didn’t strike them as important. This would have to change.

这个段落摘自2025年高考英语全国卷1（乙卷）阅读理解B。请问句子中加粗的 in and of itself 是什么用法？为什么有两个介词？

in and of oneself 是习语，意思是“本身”“自身”“就本身而言”，也可简化为 in oneself。该习语可以理解为 in itself 和 of itself 合并而成，两者均为独立的介词短语，含义相近（都表示“就其本身而言”），两者并列使用，语气更强调。又如：

The task is not difficult in and of itself, but the time limit makes it challenging.这项任务本身并不难，但时间限制使其具有挑战性。

The act of reading is not a goal in and of itself, but a means to gain knowledge. 阅读行为本身并非目的，而是获取知识的一种手段。

A quiet evening at home is a pleasure in and of itself, even without any special plans. 即便没有特别的计划，在家度过宁静的夜晚本身就是一种乐趣。
