1. 咖啡因和失眠
Although it is sometimes claimed that consuming caffeine at high levels does not cause insomnia, statistical evidence shows that it does. Study after study has found that people with high levels of caffeine consumption from beverages such as coffee, tea, and soft drinks are far more likely to suffer from insomnia than people who consume little or no caffeine.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
A.Consumption of caffeine from sources other than coffee, tea, and soft drinks is unlikely to cause insomnia. 没谈其他来源的咖啡因会不会造成失眠
B. Caffeine consumption is the only commonly occurring cause of insomnia.没谈失眠的来源
C. People suffering from insomnia do not typically respond to their lack of sleep by consuming much more caffeine than they would if they did not suffer from insomnia.正确：失眠的人不会因为缺少睡眠去喝更多咖啡
D. The only evidence available to show whether caffeine causes insomnia is statistical evidence showing correlations between caffeine consumption and insomnia.错误
E. Anyone who regularly consumes caffeine in more than moderate quantities will suffer from insomnia.无关
2.Computer worms
computer worms are mostly malicious. However, one of the widespread computer worms adds security features for infected computers. However, although the creator of this computer worm had good intention, he did more harm than good. explain this discrepancy.
电脑病毒有害--其中一个电脑病毒增加了一些保护但是还是弊大于利
可能答案：病毒保护了电脑安全但是非常占用内存，影响一些软件的使用。

3.Motorized TM 维修
做了一个调查，motorized TM 十年中10%需要维修，non-motorized TM 只有2%需要维修。如果人们想在日常使用中不被disrupt or disrupt更少，就应该用non-motorized。问assumption
选项有
A: 做survey的这些人，买motorized的和买non-motorized的一样多
B: 买motorized TM的人没有比买non-motorized TM的人用的次数更多--正确，加强

        1.  C
        ∵ 研究表明有来自饮料比如茶、咖啡、软饮的高水平咖啡因的人更容易失眠
        ∴ 高水平的咖啡因用的多会导致失眠
        assumption？
                a. 咖啡因就是咖啡因
                b.  
                c. 解决因果倒置
                d. 无关
                e. 夸大
        2. possible reasons
                a. the security features added by the worms may not help to deal with particular problems with which infected computers face
                b. additional security features may make it harder for owners of infected computers to repair them
                c. a worm, even though it is made for good, computer users will get frightened when it comes without being invited
        3. B
                a. 题中给的百分比，数量不影响结论，除非小样本
                b. 用得更多可能更容易坏，正确

B. Caffeine consumption is the only commonly occurring cause of insomnia.
C. People suffering from insomnia do not typically respond to their lack of sleep by consuming much more caffeine than they would if they did not suffer from insomnia.（这个是说失眠症本身不会通过喝咖啡来抵消，这样规避了是失眠症和咖啡因果互换的情况）
D. The only evidence available to show whether caffeine causes insomnia is statistical evidence showing correlations between caffeine consumption and insomnia.
E. Anyone who regularly consumes caffeine in more than moderate quantities will suffer from insomnia.
2.        Computer worms
computer worms are mostly malicious. However, one of the widespread computer worms adds security features for infected computers. However, although the creator of this computer worm had good intention, he did more harm than good. explain this discrepancy.
P：有个病毒可以为感染的电脑提供保护
异常：这个病毒反而造成了更多的伤害，

很多被伤害的电脑没有植入其他病毒，当这个病毒没有遇到其他病毒时，会攻击电脑

3.        Motorized TM 维修
做了一个调查，motorized TM 十年中10%需要维修，non-motorized TM 只有2%需要维修。如果人们想在日常使用中不被disrupt or disrupt更少，就应该用non-motorized。问assumption

P1：MTM十年中10%要维修
P2：NON-MTM 2%要维修
C：不想被打扰，用non
答案：B（加强了，两者次数使用一样，乃至non的更多，那么结论就是对的。）
选项有
A: 做survey的这些人，买motorized的和买non-motorized的一样多  
B: 买motorized TM的人没有比买non-motorized TM的人用的次数更多

D. The only evidence available to show whether caffeine causes insomnia is statistical evidence showing correlations between caffeine consumption and insomnia.
E. Anyone who regularly consumes caffeine in more than moderate quantities will suffer from insomnia.

P: People who drink more caffine beverage are far more likely to suffer from insomia than those who don't.
C: High level caffeine causes insomia.

Assumptions: The people did't do other things that will cause insomina.
A Weaken
B Negating B will strengthen
C Negating C: lack of sleep ==> so drink more. If so, the author cannot draw the conclusion.
D Negating D will strengthen
E No tie to conclusion
Answer is C

2.        Computer worms
computer worms are mostly malicious. However, one of the widespread computer worms adds security features for infected computers. However, although the creator of this computer worm had good intention, he did more harm than good. explain this discrepancy.

P: His computer worms adds security features for infected computers.
C: The creator did more harm than good.
Reason: His warms causes other seriors problems, e.g.massive data lost.


3.        Motorized TM 维修做了一个调查，motorized TM 十年中10%需要维修，non-motorized TM 只有2%需要维修。如果人们想在日常使用中不被disrupt or disrupt更少，就应该用non-motorized。问assumption
选项有
A: 做survey的这些人，买motorized的和买non-motorized的一样多  
B: 买motorized TM的人没有比买non-motorized TM的人用的次数更多

P: 10% of M need maintenance in 10y, but only 2% of non-M need.
C: If don't want to be disrupted, then should choose non-M
Assumptions: No other factor will cause disrupt.
A: Irrelevant comparison
B: M use less but need more maintenance. This must be ture, otherwise it means M use more and maintain more, weaken the conclusion.
Answer is B
