A) relationships between causes and results
B) classification of reasoning
C) some other common types of reasoning
D) some special type of reasoning
注：文章之前的'段落內(nèi)容=首句+結(jié)構(gòu)提示詞，one-the other/some-another Another common type of reasoning is the search for causes and results. We want to know whether cigarettes really do cause lung cancer, what cause malnutrition（營(yíng)養(yǎng)不良）, the decay of cities, or the decay of teeth. We are equally interested in effects:
2.what is the effect of sulphur or lead in the atmosphere, of oil spills and raw sewage

D) from effect to cause and on to another effect
3. A necessary cause is ____.
A) one without which it is impossible for the effect to occur
B) one of the causes that can produce the effect
C) one that is enough to make the effect occur
D) none of them 注：第三段，A選項(xiàng)是必須在場(chǎng)的相同意思的改寫(xiě)。B選項(xiàng)是原因之一，sufficient cause，C選項(xiàng)沒(méi)有必須含義。 Causes are classified as necessary, sufficient, or contributory（起輔助作用的）. A necessary cause is one which must be present for the effect to occur, as combustion ，is necessary to drive a gasoline engine. A sufficient cause is one which can produce an effect unaided , though there may be more than one sufficient cause: a dead battery is enough to keep a car from starting, but faulty spark plugs（火花塞）or an empty gas tank will have the same effect. A contributory cause is one which helps to produce an effect but cannot do so by itself, as running through a red light may help cause an accident, though other factors --- pedestrians or other cars in the intersection-must also be present.

A sufficient cause is one which can produce an effect unaided , though there may be more than one sufficient cause: a dead battery is enough to keep a car from starting, but faulty spark plugs（火花塞）or an empty gas tank will have the same effect.

注：主題題。文中只提到因果關(guān)系推理的幾種操作方法 Another common type of reasoning is the search for causes and results. We want to know whether cigarettes really do cause lung cancer, what cause malnutrition（營(yíng)養(yǎng)不良）, the decay of cities, or the decay of teeth. We are equally interested in effects: what is the effect of sulphur or lead in the atmosphere, of oil spills and raw sewage (污水、污物）in rivers and the sea, of staying up late on the night before an examination?
