Keep in mind that you have to find the main conclusion of an argument in CR test. Do not be fooled by an intermediate conclusion along the way. Use the “because” test if in doubt. --------------------------- sdcar2010, what do you mean of use the "because" to test if in doubt? Do you mean to test out the "main conclusion" or "intermediate conclusion" by this method? I am a little bit confused and have no idea how it can be done. Look forward to your explanation, thanks! -- by 会员 helenlife (2011/7/26 5:16:06)
What if there is no indicator in the argument?
In case you cannot find an indicator for premise/conclusion, you have to understand what the aruthor is trying to say and ask yourself which part is the conclusion and which part is the premise to support the conclusion. Consider the following example:
Every milk product from Three Deers must be recalled. These products contains melamine which could lead to renal failure.
Which one is the conclusion? Which one is the premise? Most likely you would say that the 1st sentence is the conclusion and the 2nd sentence is the premise.
Every milk product from Three Deers must be recalled. These products contains melamine which could lead to renal failure.
If in doubt, 1) simply connect the two sentences using the word because; and 2) see which one of the resulting arguments makes more sense:
1) Every milk product from Three Deers must be recalled because these products contains melamine which could lead to renal failure.
2) Becasue every milk product from Three Deers must be recalled, these products contains melamine which could lead to renal failure.
In CR test, if you can locate the premise and the conclusion of an argument, you have 50% chance of getting the right answer in the end. Train your eyes and brains to identify the conclusion of an argument quickly and precisely. Make sure your first step of a long march to the victory gets off on the right foot. |
