Which of the following, if true, provides evidence that most logically completes the argument below?
According to a widely held economic hypothesis, imposing strict environmental regulations reduces economic growth. This hypothesis is undermined by the fact that the states with the strictest environmental regulations also have the highest economic growth. This fact does not show that environmental regulations promote growth, however, since ______.
Which of the following, if true, provides evidence that most logically completes the argument below?
According to a widely held economic hypothesis, imposing strict environmental regulations reduces economic growth. This hypothesis is undermined by the fact that the states with the strictest environmental regulations also have the highest economic growth. This fact does not show that environmental regulations promote growth, however, since ______.
A. those states with the strictest environmental regulations invest the most in education and job training
B. even those states that have only moderately strict environmental regulations have higher growth than those with the least-strict regulations
C .many states that are experiencing reduced economic growth are considering weakening their environmental regulations
D. after introducing stricter environmental regulations, many states experienced increased economic growth
E. even those states with very weak environmental regulations have experienced at least some growth
CD出的逻辑书里有讲到果因推理,我觉得这个题目应该是归为这一类.
果:the states with the strictest environmental regulations also have the highest economic growth
推出因:environmental regulations promote growth
然后题目是要weaken这个果因推理
CD书里讲了削弱果因推理的两种方法:
一.A,B之间是否真的具有因果关系。
二.是否存在C导致A,而不是B导致A。
那么这个题目的A选项就是引入了C条件(education, job training),所以削弱了fact和reason的关系。
B,C,D,E选项都是在说其他的states,可以理解为与本题无关,希望这个说法对楼主有帮助~
Which of the following, if true, provides evidence that most logically completes the argument below?
According to a widely held economic hypothesis, imposing strict environmental regulations reduces economic growth. This hypothesis is undermined by the fact that the states with the strictest environmental regulations also have the highest economic growth.

C .many states that are experiencing reduced economic growth are considering weakening their environmental regulations
D. after introducing stricter environmental regulations, many states experienced increased economic growth
E. even those states with very weak environmental regulations have experienced at least some growth
问题:which most logically completes the argument below?
策略:1.划掉那些对complete the argument below 没有帮助的选项
2. 在剩下的选项中找最好的
分析题目:
1. argument 是:we can't infer from the facts that environmental regulations promote growth
2. what is the fact: states with the strictest environmental regulations also have the highest economic growth
初步思维:
1. find something that attacks the relation between strictest environmental regulations AND highest economic growth -> it should be a right answer
2. delete anything that helps the relation
3. delete anything that has no help at all
分析选项
A: it attacks the relation, so keep it.
B: it helps the relation, cross it out.
C: no help at all, cross it out.
D: it helps the relation, cross it out.
E: no help at all, cross it out.
这题如果换一种问法你可以秒选,不信你试试?
According to a widely held economic hypothesis, imposing strict environmental regulations boosts economic growth.
How to weaken the argument?
A. those states with the strictest environmental regulations invest the most in education and job training
B. even those states that have only moderately strict environmental regulations have higher growth than those with the least-strict regulations
C .many states that are experiencing reduced economic growth are considering weakening their environmental regulations
D. after introducing stricter environmental regulations, many states experienced increased economic growth
E. even those states with very weak environmental regulations have experienced at least some growth
这题第一句是废话,你信不信?我们把第一句拿出来,你看题是不是还是那道题?选项是不是还是A?
The states with the strictest environmental regulations also have the highest economic growth. This fact does not show that environmental regulations promote growth, however, since ______.
是不是就是简单的果因推理找削弱?
According to a widely held economic hypothesis, imposing strict environmental regulations reduces economic growth. This hypothesis is undermined by the fact的目的就是为了增多逻辑关系,增加难度。其实这是一个“无用信息”。有他没他不影响解题。
