※ 引述《chenemily (天天保持好心情)》之铭言:
: Researchers took a group of teenagers who had never smoked and for one year
: tracked whether they took up smoking and how their mental health changed.
: Those who began smoking within a month of the study’s start were four times
: as likely to be depressed at the study’s end than those who did not begin
: smoking. Since nicotine in cigarettes changes brain chemistry, perhaps
: thereby affecting mood, it is likely that smoking contributes to depression
: in teenagers.
原文最後结论是:「抽烟导致青少年忧郁」
: Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?
: A.Participants who were depressed at the study’s start were no more likely
: to be smokers at the study’s end than those who were not depressed.
支持题,一般答案分为「因果支持」、「对照组支持」、「反驳的反驳支持」三种。
先将答案A中 no more 略去不看,整句意思是「这些人因忧郁而开始吸烟」,
所以成为「倒因为果」的反驳答案。
然後,再将 no more 加回去,这时整句话的作用,便成为「反驳的反驳」,
而支持原主张。
以上,供参考
: B.Participants who began smoking within a month of the study’s start were
: no more likely than those who began midway through to have quit smoking by
: the study’s end.
: C.Few, if any, of the participants in the study were friends or relatives of
: other participants.
: D.Some participants entered and emerged from a period of depression within
: the year of the study.
: E.The researchers did not track use of alcohol by the teenagers.
: 可以请问一下a是哪里支持吗
: 其他选项错的我都可以排除
: 但a我不知道对在哪里
: 谢
