前提不可否定,因为前提是一个不可推翻的事实。 还是借助FEIFEI笔记上的milk题。 原题:Metropolis regualtion limiting to four days the period during which milk can be sold to cosumers after pasteurization is unresonable. Under optimal conditions, pasteurized milk kept at 40 degrees F remains unspoiled for at least 14 days. If Metropolis current limitation were changed to eight days, milk prices would drop, but product quality would be unaffected. 问weaken? 首先要找准前提和结论。 前提: Under optimal conditions, pasteurized milk kept at 40 degrees F remains unspoiled for at least 14 days.---一个不可推翻的事实。 结论: If Metropolis current limitation were changed to eight days, milk prices would drop, but product quality would be unaffected.结论中含有if...then...是个条件型结论。而其中的if Metropolis current limitation were changed to eight days不是前提,是个充分条件,因为结论是个充分必要条件的句子。不应当死板得记忆前提结论的标志词if...then...而是要结合具体题目文章。 重申:前提就是个不可推翻的事实,不会出现一个假设。 反对前提是迷惑选项是错误选项---反对前提反对的是其谓语不是其他句子成分。所以这个题反对前提是:Under optimal conditions, pasteurized milk kept at 40 degrees F does not remain unspoiled for at least 14 days. 而不是对under optimal conditions的否定。 这个题的正确答案:In Metropolis, conditions for handling and storing milk after pasteurization are seldom close to optimum.并没有反对前提中的谓语,而其实就是简简单单的断桥而已。因为这个题是有hidden premise的,当结论中说If Metropolis current limitation were changed to eight days...隐含的就是在under optimal conditions这个桥梁存在的时候,milk prices would drop还不影响产品质量。 OG11-18也是同理的,并没有反对前提,而是断了桥而已。 OG11-18:前提:...argue that in a free society people have the right to take risks as long as the people do not harm others as a result of taking the risks. 反对前提就是反对其谓语:...argue that in a free society people do not have the right to take risks as long as the people do not harm others as a result of taking the risks. 这叫反对前提。而题目的桥就是在people do not harm others as a result of taking the risks, it should be each person's decision whether or not to wear a seat belt. 正确答案就是断了这个桥而已。 大家切记,否定前提就是否定前提里的谓语动词,否定前提是错误选项是迷惑选项,不可以选的。 其实我看到lawyer的分析中weaken题里有好几个都写着是否定前提,其实不是否定前提,因为正确答案并不是去否定前提里的谓语,而是仅仅断了桥,把那个hidden premise给断了而已的。希望大家理解清楚。而且也不要一看到if...then..就死板得认为是前提结论的标志。有时候if...then...是出现在结论中的。例如milk这道题的结论中就是,这个是条件型结论(结论中带条件而已)。 前提就是一个不可推翻的事实。大家读题要分清楚前提和结论。 |
