“你是说??”我问道。

“草率结论,”她重复了一遍。“你怎么能凭我们仅有的五次约会就说我们俩很相配呢?”

我咯咯一笑,觉得挺有意思。这可爱的小家伙功课学得可真不错。“亲爱的,”我耐心地拍打着她的手说,“五次约会就不少了,毕竟你不必把整个蛋糕吃下去才知道蛋糕的甜味。”

“错误类比,”波利敏捷地说。“我可不是蛋糕,我是个女孩子。”我微微一笑,但这次不感到那么有意思了。这可爱的孩子功课或许是学得太好了。我决定改变策略。显然,最好的办法就是态度明朗,直接了当地向她表示爱。我沉默了一会儿,用我特别发达的脑袋挑选着合适的词句。然后我便开始说:

“波利,我爱你。对我来说,你就是整个世界,是月亮,是星星,是整个宇宙。我亲爱的,请说你爱我吧。如果你不这样,我的生活就失去意义了。我将会萎靡不振,茶不饮,饭不思,到处游荡,成为一个步履蹒跚、双眼凹下的躯壳。”

我交叉着双手站在那里,心想这下子可打动了她。

“文不对题,”波利说。

我咬咬牙。我不是皮格马利翁,我是弗兰肯斯坦,我的喉咙似乎一下子让魔鬼卡住了。我极力地控制涌上心头的阵阵痛楚。无论怎样,我电要保持冷静。

“好了,波利,”我强装着笑脸说,“这些谬误你的确已学到家了。”

“这可说得很对,”她使劲地点了点头说道。

“可是波利,这一切是谁教给你的?”

“你教的嘛。”

“是的,那你得感谢我呀。是吗,亲爱的?要是我不和你在一起,你永远也不会学到这些谬误的”。

“与事实相反的假设,”波利不加思索地说着。

我摔掉了额前的汗珠。“波利,”我用嘶哑的声音说道,“你不要死板地接受这些东西。我是说那只是课堂上讲的东西。你知道学校学的东西与现实生活毫不相关。”

“绝对判断,”她说道,嬉戏地向我摇摇指头。

这一下可使我恼火了。我猛地跳了起来,像公牛似地吼叫着,“你到底想不想跟我相爱?”

“我不想,”她答道。

“为什么不想?”我追问着。

“因为今天下午我答应了皮蒂伯奇,我愿意和他相爱。”

我被皮蒂这一无耻的行径气得一阵晕眩,情不自禁地向后退去。皮蒂答应了我,跟我成了交,还跟我握了手呢!“这个可耻的家伙!”我尖着嗓子大叫,把一块块草皮踢了起来。“你不能跟他在一起,波利。他是一个说谎的人,一个骗子,一个可耻的家伙!”

“井下放毒,”波利说。“别叫嚷了,我认为大声叫嚷就是一种谬误。”

我以极大的意志力把语气缓和下来。“好吧,”我说,“你是一个逻辑学家。那就让我们从逻辑上来分析这件事吧。你怎么会看得中皮蒂,而看不起我呢?你瞧我一个才华横溢的学生,一个了不起的知识分子,一个前途无量的人;而皮蒂——一个笨蛋,一个反复无常的人,一个吃了上顿不知有没有下顿的家伙。你能给我一个合乎逻辑的理由来说明你为什么要跟皮蒂好吗?”

“当然能,”波利肯定地说。“他有一件浣熊皮大衣。”

习题全解

Ⅰ.Ruskin:John Ruskin(1819—1900),English critic and social theorist,was the virtual dictator of artistic opinion in England during the mid-19th century. Ruskin attended Oxford from 1836 to 1840 and won the Newdigate Prize for poetry. In 1843 appeared the first volume of Modern Painters. This work elaborates the principles that art is based on national and individual integrity and morality and also that art is a \same theories to architecture. About 1857, Ruskin?s art criticism became more broadly social and political. In his works he attacked bourgeois England and charged that modern art reflected the ugliness and waste of modern industry. Ruskin r s positive program for social reform appeared in Sesame and Lilies (1865), The Crown of Wild Olive (1866), Time and Tide (1867), and Fors Clavigera (8 vols. , 1871-- 1884). Many of his suggested programs--old age pensions, nationalization of education, organization of labor--have become accepted doctrine.

Ⅱ . 1. The writer humorously uses words like \be bad, or else he would not have written nor would it have been published. Max Shulman is well-known for his humor.

2. The purpose of this essay, according to the writer, is to demonstrate that logic, far from being a dry, pedantic subject, is a living, breathing :thing, full of beauty, passion, and trauma. Logic may be an interesting subject, but it is definitely not a living, breathing, full of beauty, passion and trauma. The writer is exaggerating for the sake of humor.

3. The narrator considers Petey Burch dumb as an ox because he thinks Petey to be unintelligent, an emotional and impressionable type of person. However, Peteyr s worst fault is that he is a faddist, he is swept up in every new craze that comes along.

4. He decided to teach Polly Espy logic because he wanted not only a beautiful wife but also an intelligent one. The narrator wanted a wife who would help to further his career as a lawyer. He found Polly had all the necessary qualities except intelligence. This he decided to remedy by teaching her logic. He succeeded only too well for in the end Polly refused to go steady with him and employed all the \been taught to reject his offer.

5. (1) The fallacy of accident is committed by an argument that applies a general rule to a particular case in which some special circumstances (\

(2) The converse fallacy of accident argues improperly from a special case to a general rule. The fact that a certain drug is beneficial to some sick persons does not imply that it is beneficial to all men. This is the fallacy of \

(3) The fallacy of irrelevant conclusion is committed when the conclusion changes the point that is at issue in the premises. Special cases of irrelevant conclusion are presented by the so- called fallacies of relevance. These include: (a) the argu- ment \the man\attack on a person who holds some thesis, instead of offering grounds showing why what he says is false; (b) the argument \(an appeal to \athy for him. (4)The fallacy of circular argument or \ion that is to be demonstrated (example :\cause mislocates the cause of one phenomenon in another that is only seemingly related. The most common version of this fallacy, called \

hoc, ergo propter hoc\mistakes temporal sequence for causal connection--as when a misfortune is attributed to a \event\like the dropping of a mirror. (6)The fallacy of many questions consists in demanding or giving a single answer to a question when this answer could either be divided (example: \presupposition is involved (example-\drastic than the preceding, occurs when there is not even a deceptively plau- sible appearance of valid reasoning, because there is a virtually complete lack of connection between the given premises and the conclusion drawn from them.

Ⅲ.1. The title of the story is humorous and well chosen. It has two meanings. When \he title means: \ans. \a set of given premises. \

2. Yes, I can. The whole story is satirizing a smug, self-conceited freshman in a law school. The freshman is made the narrator of the story who goes on smugly boasting and singing praises of himself at every chance he could get. From the very beginning in paragraph 4, he begins to help on himself all the beautiful words of praise he can think: cool, powerful, precise and penetrating. At the same time the narrator takes every opportunity to downgrade Petey Bureh. For example, he calls him \\

3. The purpose of this essay is to demonstrate that logic, far from being a dry, pedantic subject, is a living, breathing thing, full of beauty, passion, and trauma. Logic may be an interesting subject. The writer is exaggerating for the sake of humor. The writer employs a whole variety of writing techniques to make his story vivid, dramatic and colorful. The lexical spectrum is colorful from the ultra learned terms used by the conceited narrator to the infra clipped vulgar forms of Polly Espy. He uses figurative language profusely and also grammatic inversion for special emphasis. The speed of the narration is maintained by the use of short sentences, ellip- tical sentences and dashes throughout the story. This mix adds to the realism of the story,

4. The writer deliberately makes Polly Espy use a lot of exclamatory words like \\\ wow-dow \and clipped vulgar forms like \narrator and thus helps to increase the force of satire and irony.

5. The narrator does such a final attempt to make Polly forget the fallacies he has taught her. He may yet be able to convince Polly that he loves her and that she should go steady118 with him.

6. The topic sentence of paragraph 50 is the second sentence--\was a torn man. \The writer develops the paragraph by describing the behavior of the torn man. In other words, he uses illustrative examples to develop the theme stated in his topic sentence.

7. Because he begged Polly's love, which was refused. He might get the same result as Frankenstein, who created a monster that destroyed him, not as Pygmalion, who was loved by his own statue of Galatea.

8. The conclusion is ironic because the whole thing backfires on the narrator when Polly refutes all his arguments as logical fallacies before finally rejecting him. The end of the story finds that the narrator has got what he deserves. He has been too clever for his own good. IV. 1. The fallacy of unqualified generalization or \ 2. The fallacy of Hasty Generalization. 3. The fallacy of \ 4. The fallacy of Hypothesis Contrary to Fact. 5. The fallacy of \ 6. The fallacy of Ad Misericordiam. 7. The fallacy of unqualified generalization. 8. The fallacy of HaMy Generalization. V. See the translation of the text.

Vl. 1. discipline :a branch of knowledge or learning

2. dynamo: an earlier form for generator, a machine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy 3. flight :fleeing or running away from

ⅩⅣ. The main idea is developed by the method of classification. The writer uses a series of paragraphs to develop the classification adequately and completely. To write an effective paragraph of classification, the writer can use the following procedure :

1. Clearly, and as precisely as necessary, identify the term being classified. When necessary, define it in words the reader can understand. 2. State or imply clearly the standards on which the classification is to be made. Sometimes the name of the class or classes in which the item is placed suggests the basis or standard for the classification. Classifying birds as game birds clearly specifies them as among those which can be hunted and eaten by humans.

3. Identify the names of the classes into which the items being classified belong.

4. Finally, discuss each of the classes, limiting the discussion to the standards on which the classification is based.

XV. 1. The writer is satirizing a self-conceited freshman in a law school. The freshman is made the narrator of the story, who goes on smugly boasting and singing praises of himself at every conceivable opportunity. From the very beginning, in paragraph 4, he begins to heap on himself all the beautiful words of praise he can think of cool, logical, keen, calculating, perspicacious, acute, astute, pow- erful, precise and penetrating. This exaggerated self praise and the profuse use of similes and metaphors help to make the satire humorous. At the same time the narrator takes every opportunity to downgrade Percy Butch. For example, he calls him: dumb, nothing upstairs, unstable, impressionable and a faddist. And as for Polly Espy, she is \her a course in logic. He teaches her how to recognize the common fallacies of logic. He succeeds too well because the whole thing backfires on him when Polly refutes all his arguments as logical fallacies before finally rejecting him. In desperation the narrator argues that \learn in school don?t have anything to do in life\ grounds. She rejects him because he does not own a raccoon coat as Petey Burch does. At the end of the story, the reader feels the narrator has got what he deserved. He has been too clever for his own good.

The title of the story is humorous and well chosen. It has two meanings, When \itle means: \deceptive or delusive quality about love ⅩⅥ. Learning

A proverb goes, \is the eye of mind\prosperous future of our nation. Then, how to make the eye sharper? Though it varies accordingly, several principles exist here.

First, distint targets should be set for learning. It includes the targets of both long term and short term. Only with these, can we know how to study efficiently.

Second, we should try to form a good habit of learning. We should have in mind the idea of doing one thing at a time, i.e. learn while learning,
