[Critical Reasoning]

试题详情

题目:

Historian:  Newton developed mathematical concepts and techniques that are fundamental to modern calculus.  Leibniz developed closely analogous concepts and techniques.  It has traditionally been thought that these discoveries were independent.  Researchers have, however, recently discovered notes of Leibniz' that discuss one of Newton's books on mathematics.  Several scholars have argued that since the book includes a presentation of Newton's calculus concepts and techniques, and since the notes were written before Leibniz' own development of calculus concepts and techniques, it is virtually certain that the traditional view is false.  A more cautious conclusion than this is called for, however.  Leibniz' notes are limited to early sections of Newton's book, sections that precede the ones in which Newton's calculus concepts and techniques are presented.
 
In the historian's reasoning, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

选项:

A、The first provides evidence in support of the overall position that the historian defends; the second is evidence that has been used to support an opposing position.
B、The first provides evidence in support of the overall position that the historian defends; the second is that position.
C、The first provides evidence in support of an intermediate conclusion that is drawn to provide support for the overall position that the historian defends; the second provides evidence against that intermediate conclusion.
D、The first is evidence that has been used to support a conclusion that the historian criticizes; the second is evidence offered in support of the historian's own position.
E、The first is evidence that has been used to support a conclusion that the historian criticizes; the second is further information that substantiates that evidence.

答案:

D

提问:

more cautious conclusion...however 然而有个更cautious的结论为什么不是表递进呢?之前老师说however有时候不一定是转折,要根据句子间的逻辑关系判断,而这里我不认为两个boldface是相反关系,请老师指点!谢谢!

提问:

我想问的是如果这道题的A B C 选项中的defend这个词换成argue 那argue在A前半句的意思到底是 The first provides evidence in support of the overall position that the historian defends 第一个提供证据支持整体结论,这个结论是被historian支持的 还是反对的?? 查argue的英文意思有论据也有争论的意思,所以不知道argue 到底是支持还是反对的意思。 还有这个词若是在阅读文章中出现时支持还是反对的意思? 总是搞不明白?? 老师能不能给的解释? 麻烦您!

提问:

录音没太听懂。黑体题大概读原文逻辑:历史学家首先说牛顿发展了数学理论,L这个人也发展了个类似的。传统观点认为....。而最近researchers发现....(与传统观点反的)。一些学者认为传统观点是错的(说了两个证据,其中包括黑体)。另一个更小心的结论是L的notes受限制于牛顿的书的早期的部分(没太读懂,有黑体)。虽然最后一句有个however,但我并没读出这两个黑体部分是反的,也没读出哪个才是历史学家的观点,请老师帮助梳理一下原文逻辑。

提问:

这道题看出来是historian们反对之前的一个说法,并依据证据提出了自己的结论。 我认为第一个划线处是一个支持historian观点的evidence,而第二个划线处是他们提出的conclusion。为什么答案D说第二处也是一个evidence支持historian的观点? 麻烦老师解答
