第四题：

4. More and more computer programs that provide solutions to mathematical problems in engineering are being produced, and it is thus increasingly unnecessary for practicing engineers to have a thorough understanding of fundamental mathematical principles. Consequently, in training engineers who will work in industry, less emphasis should be placed on mathematical principles, so that space in the engineering curriculum will be available for other important subjects.
The two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

(A) The first is the second-premise that the argument includes; the second is the conclusion that could be drawn from this passage.
(B) The first is the fact that is necessary for this argument; the second is the conclusion that must be drawn from this passage.
(C) The first is the part of premise that the argument includes; the second is the inference that could be drawn from this passage.
(D) The first is the part of evidence that supports this argument; the second is the inference that could be drawn from this passage.
(E) The first is the first conclusion in this argument; the second is the second conclusion in this argument.


解答：

1。More and more computer programs that provide solutions to mathematical problems in engineering are being produced。 是一个fact,不是premise.
2.it is thus increasingly unnecessary for practicing engineers to have a thorough understanding of fundamental mathematical principles.是根据第一句话得出的一个结论。但同时又是第四句话的premise.
3。 Consequently, in training engineers who will work in industry, less emphasis should be placed on mathematical principles 这半句话实际上是第二句话的inference.实际上是原句的同义变换。
4。so that space in the engineering curriculum will be available for other important subjects. 是作者的结论，但绝不是inference。

选项e: The first is the first conclusion in this argument(其并没有反对其作premise的作用）
the second is the second conclusion in this argument.
但是选项c: The first is the part of premise that the argument includes.却误把第一句也作为premise而实际上，他是一个fact.

that is why we should choose e rather than c.



我觉得应该选C
1. 关于多个CONCLUSION的情况，后者是建立在前者的基础上还是所有的CONCLUSION都是独立的，由FACT, PREMEISE, EVIDENCE得来？
 如：A---B,C
          是A-----B并且A------C
         还是A----B 并且B-------C？
2.如果选E： the first is the fist conclusion那么我们单看第一和第二句话：More and more computer programs that provide solutions to mathematical problems in engineering are being produced。（A）it is thus increasingly unnecessary for practicing engineers to have a thorough understanding of fundamental mathematical principles.（B）
A---B
等价于：
非B---非A（逆否命题）
即：it is not necessary for practicing engineers to have a thorough understanding of fundamental mathematical principles.(非b)
      notmore and more computer programs that provide solutions to mathematical problems in engineering are being produced（非A）
显然 非B 不能推出 非A，因为工程师没有必要学好数学跟没有很多解决数学问题的电脑没有必然联系，还可能是因为数学问题可以通过其他途径解决

所以选C

求想法！！！！
