130. The mind and the immune system have been shown to be intimately linked, and scientists are consistently finding that doing good deeds benefits one’s immune system. The bone marrow and spleen, which produce the white blood cells needed to fight infection, are both connected by neural pathways to the brain. Recent research as shown that they activity of these white blood cells is stimulated by beneficial chemicals produced by the brain as a result of magnanimous behavior.
The statements above, if true, support the view that
A. good deeds must be based on unselfish motives lack of magnanimity is the cause of most serious illnesses.
B. magnanimous behavior can be regulated by the presence of absence of certain chemicals in the brain.
C. magnanimous behavior can be regulated by the presence or absence of certain chemicals in the brain.
D. magnanimity is beneficial to one’s own interests
E. the number of white blood cells will increase radically if behavior is consistently magnanimous
Reference:
In my view, the reasoning in this argument is that:
magnanimous behaviorà beneficial chemicals produced by the brainà they activity of these white blood cellsà fight infection
So, the correct answer is D.
A is out of scope. Because unselfish motives is not mentioned in this argument.
B and C have the same mistake. From the above reasoning , it is clear that because of magnanimous behavior, some beneficial chemicals were produced by the brain. But the statement of B and C fail to convince us that magnanimous behavior can be regulated by the presence of absence of certain chemicals in the brain.
E is out of scope. The argument fails to establish the casual relationship between the number of white blood and the rate of magnanimous behavior.
I think the answer should be E !! lets discuss it !!!(I searched that there is no discussion about E)
I would choose D
E is not right b/c
the number of white blood cells will increase
radically
if behavior is consistently magnanimous.
we only know from the context that the number of white blood cells will increase, but it does not say radically.
Hence, E is not correct.
还是没明白，D. magnanimity is beneficial to one’s own interests 又说明了什么呢？
哦谢谢~~~~
那就是原推理说M....&*^%$#...对**好，答案就直接说M好，这是什么方法呢？

姐姐 您说什么呢...我晕
没看明白
having a good immune system is to everyone's own interest ？ why
我觉得原文和选项说的两码事啊
interest在哪儿？
Recent research as shown that they activity of these white blood cells is stimulated by beneficial chemicals produced by the brain as a result of magnanimous behavior.
here,we can make a conclusion that can be described below:
magnanimous behavior--------produce chemcials-----stimulate the activity of the white blood cell
So we found that magnanimous behavior will stimulate the activity of the cells not the number .
Hence ,E is out of scope.Nothing regarding the number of white blood cells was discussed in the argument.
In choice D ,because magnanimous behavior will stimulate the activity of the cells ,magnanimous behavior will do us good and that is all about choice D.
So D is the best answer definitely

狂顶！ 竹子很强，明白了
实际上就是 mag behavior-->beneficial chemicals--> white blood activities-->fight infection 于是mag对人有好处
前面说了半天mind and immune 都是废话吧？
我觉得LZ的理解是对的，但E推理过度了，behavior is consistently magnanimous不一定导致white blood cells will increase radically。
好吧，正好看到这题，发觉还有人在顶，而回答的人有一个点没有踩准，就补充一下。
这道题我原来选的也是E，看了答案后也有大家一样的纠结。但仔细看了后，发觉两个词能很明确的表明答案的错误。
原文：which produce the white blood cells needed to fight infection
E：the number of white blood cells will increase
radically
if behavior is consistently magnanimous.
体会一下这两个词吧。
