13,959 | Sambar deer are physically incapable of digesting meat. Yet sambar deer have been reported feeding on box turtles after killing them. | The statement 'Sambar deer kill box turtles only occasionally' best resolves the discrepancy above. | not-entailment |
3,164 | Although computers can help people communicate, computer games hinder the development of teenagers' communication skills. They spend their spare time playing computer games instead of communicating with others. Therefore, young people who spend their spare time playing computer games have worse communication skills than other children. | The above conclusions are most likely based on the assumption that children who do not play computer games in their spare time are communicating with others at least for some time. | entailment |
10,671 | Editorial: Supporters of the proposed law that would require bicyclists to wear helmets are seriously misguided. The number of pedestrians who die yearly as a result of accidents involving automobiles is five times the number of deaths resulting from bicycle accidents, and drunken driving exacts a much higher toll than both combined. Yet there are no calls for a ban on alcohol or walking down the street. | It is foolish to require lab workers to wear safety goggles when working with acids and other dangerous liquids. No one suggests that people stop eating or socializing, even though more people become ill due to food poisoning and contagious diseases than are injured in laboratory accidents exhibits a pattern of flawed reasoning most similar to that in the argument above. | entailment |
11,288 | Conservationist: The risk to airplane passengers from collisions between airplanes using the airport and birds from the wildlife refuge is negligible. In the 10 years since the refuge was established, only 20 planes have been damaged in collisions with birds, and no passenger has been injured as a result of such a collision. The wildlife refuge ttherefore poses no safety risk. Pilot: You neglect to mention that 17 of those 20 collisions occurred within the past 2 years, and that the number of birds in the refuge is rapidly increasing. As the number of collisions between birds and airplanes increases, so does the likelihood that at least one such collision will result in passenger injuries. | The pilot counters the conservationist by attempting to show that the conservationist's description of the facts is misleading. | entailment |
3,370 | To make a correct analysis and judgment of social phenomena, even if they are regional, they must go into the real society for investigation and research, and must not speculate. To understand the causal relationship of things and establish relevant theories, there must be no realistic data for verifying the theory. | To engage in social research, we must collect data from practical work is correct. | entailment |
12,822 | Neither a rising standard of living nor balanced trade, by itself, establishes a country's ability to compete in the international marketplace. Both are required simultaneously since standards of living can rise because of growing trade deficits and trade can be balanced by means of a decline in a country's standard of living. | A proper test of a country's ability to be competitive is its ability to balance its trade while its standard of living falls, if the facts stated in the passage above are true. | not-entailment |
1,741 | Mencius once said this sentence in Gao Zi Shang: Reason and righteousness please my heart, and meat please my mouth. This statement is truthful, exquisite, and quite enlightening. The practice of life has also been told time and time again. We, all the reason that fits my heart, always explain the profound things in a simple way. For example, chu huan means that delicacies such as beef and mutton fits my taste. maybe the speaker is sincere, but the listener doesn't care, or the speaker is hoarse and the listener is sleepy. After all, the appeal does not depend on the high voice, let alone the power of the microphone, but should be as dazzling, eye-catching, beautiful and enlightening as the peacock opens the screen. | The emphasis of this text is that only true reason can make people truly believe. | not-entailment |
10,572 | Patient: Pharmacists maintain that doctors should not be permitted to sell the medicine that they prescribe because doctors would then be tempted to prescribe unnecessary medicines in order to earn extra income. But pharmacists have a financial interest in having a monopoly on the sale of prescription medicines, so their objection to the sale of medicines by doctors cannot be taken seriously. | The patient's argument proceeds by attempting to discredit a position by questioning the motives of the proponents of that position. | entailment |
7,137 | Xiao Li said, I passed all the exams this time and got my motor vehicle driver's license. | If what Xiao Li said is not true, then Xiao Li failed in one subject at most. | not-entailment |
6,120 | When talking about French literature in the eyes of the Chinese people, the French can't help but say in a contemptuous tone: you like the camellia girl. in the eyes of the French, it's still some taste to like Dumas. After all, he has a count of Monte Cristo and three musketeers. What does Dumas have? It's just a social flower. French literature is the pride of the French and plays an important role in world literature. It's obviously disrespect for French literature to only like the camellia girl. It became popular in China almost a hundred years ago. At that time, it was the failure of the reform movement of 1898, people were depressed and the road of improvement was not feasible, We have to make do with random novels. The birth of Camellia girl in China is at the right time. | This passage is intended to explain that a preference for literary works can reflect one's taste. | not-entailment |
10,715 | While grapefruit juice is a healthy drink, it has been discovered that a chemical in the juice affects how certain medicines are absorbed, with the result that normal medicinal doses act like higher doses. Getting the wrong dose is dangerous. Since it is always desirable to take the lowest effective dose, the best medical approach would be to take lower doses of these medicines along with prescribed amounts of grapefruit juice. | The statement 'The amount of the chemical in grapefruit juice is highly unpredictable from glass to glass' most seriously weakens the argument. | entailment |
1,906 | In the process of policy implementation, there is still a lack of strong institutions from top to bottom to inspect and supervise the implementation of various policies. Often, whenever there are problems that need to be solved, they issue a document, make some new regulations, or set up new institutions, and pay less attention to the implementation of these policies. Due to the lack of supervision and guarantee system for the implementation of laws, regulations or policy documents, whether they are implemented or not is the same. Over time, the wind that orders are not carried out and prohibitions are still arbitrary will naturally prevail. | The argument is supported by the statement 'It is necessary to strengthen the implementation of policies.' | not-entailment |
12,651 | Certain genetically modified strains of maize produce a powerful natural insecticide. The insecticide occurs throughout the plant, including its pollen. Maize pollen is dispersed by the wind and frequently blows onto milkweed plants that grow near maize fields. Caterpillars of monarch butterflies feed exclusively on milkweed leaves. When these caterpillars are fed milkweed leaves dusted with pollen from modified maize plants, they die. Ttherefore, by using genetically modified maize, farmers put monarch butterflies at risk. | Determining whether monarch butterfly caterpillars are actively feeding during the part of the growing season when maize is releasing pollen would be most useful to evaluate the argument. | entailment |
7,938 | It is a miracle that a few children can grow up to be independent thinkers, open-minded and knowledgeable after such exam-oriented education. | Teaching to the test does not fit the meaning of the passage. | not-entailment |
7,319 | Pledge of rights means that the debtor or a third party takes his rights such as creditor's rights, equity, copyright, etc as security. | The pledge of rights is that Zhang will own the patent rights as a guarantee to pay off the debt due to debt. | entailment |
4,124 | National civil servants: refer to persons who represent the country or government, are engaged in the management of public affairs, and provide public services. According to the Civil Servants Law that came into effect on January 1, 2006, civil servants in my country refer to all levels of state administrative agencies Workers other than workers. | The Director of Henan Provincial Labor Department does not belong to the ranks of civil servants according to the above definition. | not-entailment |
14,363 | Most veterinarians, and especially those at university veterinary research centers, have a devoted interest in the biological sciences. But most veterinarians choose their profession primarily because they love animals. Among persons who are seriously interested in biological science but lack any special love for animals, one does not find any prominent veterinarians. | Few veterinarians at university research centers chose their profession primarily because they love animals cannot be true if all of the statements above are true. | not-entailment |
7,121 | A unilateral civil legal act is a juristic act that can be established according to the will of one party. | According to the above definition, the act of Xiao Zhang discarding an old sofa and a 40% new washing machine after moving is a unilateral civil legal act. | entailment |
10,415 | A unit arranges 6 people on duty on The first day, the second day, the third day of the new year. They are G., H, K, L, P, and S. Two people are required to be on duty every day. The personnel arrangement must meet the following conditions: (1) L and P must be on duty on the same day. (2) G and H cannot be on duty on the same day. (3) If K is on duty in the first day, then G is on duty in the second day. (4) ) If S is on duty in the third day, then H is on duty in the second day. | If H is on duty on the same day as the day before S, then G is on duty in the second day. | entailment |
7,498 | Everything that is conducive to the peaceful development of cross-strait relations should be vigorously promoted, and everything that undermines the peaceful development of cross-strait relations must be firmly opposed. | Everything that should be vigorously promoted is conducive to the peaceful development of cross-strait relations can be inferred based on the given information. | not-entailment |
8,254 | In the face of a major epidemic, timely release of authoritative information and open and transparent response to public concerns can effectively solve the problem of information asymmetry, reduce the space for the spread of false information such as rumors, and better maintain social stability. For some time, relevant departments and relevant institutions have released data on confirmed, suspected, cured and dead people in a timely manner. Some Internet enterprises have used big data, cloud computing and visualization technology to launch products such as Real-time epidemic situation dynamic, Co-ride patient query system and Fever Clinic Map, which simultaneously popularize scientific protection knowledge, effectively meet the information needs of the public, and guide the masses to look at the epidemic rationally. Enhance self-prevention awareness and protection ability. | The content that this text is meant to emphasize is enhancing the ability of self-protection by means of technology. | not-entailment |
1,649 | The development of the Internet of things, an emerging industry, is strong. In only a few years, the industrial scale of the Internet of things has shown a compound growth rate of more than 30% a year. Intellectual property rights such as patents provide strong support for the rapid rise of this sunrise industry. It is predicted that in the next few years, the global Internet of things market will grow rapidly. China's Internet of things market will reach 750 billion yuan in 2015, and the market prospect will far exceed the computer, Internet, mobile communications and other markets. From the current situation of patent applications in China, the number of core technology patents and international patent applications submitted through the Patent Cooperation Treaty is obviously insufficient. Therefore, industry experts point out that it is necessary to accelerate the patent layout of the Internet of things industry in China. | The statement 'The industry of the Internet of things in China will become the pillar industry of our country in the future' does not match the meaning of the passage. | entailment |
5,879 | There is a multiple-choice paper with 6 questions, and the scoring standard is: 8 points for a correct answer, 0 points for a wrong answer, and 2 points for no answer. | If a classmate scored 20 points, they answered at least three short questions correctly. | not-entailment |
8,578 | Scientists have been arguing about who was the ancestor of birds for a long time. There are mainly three theories about the origin of birds: the origin of slotted teeth, the origin of dinosaurs and the sister group of crocodiles, among which the origin of slotted teeth and the origin of dinosaurs have been hotly debated recently. The newly discovered fossils in recent years, especially a series of fossils found in western Liaoning, China, have once again stirred up the debate about the origin of birds, proving that birds are really descendants of dinosaurs. | Using an electron microscope, scientists found a melanosome in dinosaur fossils, which is also found in bird feathers, which is a continuation of dinosaur genes, if true, best supports the above conclusion. | entailment |
14,609 | Many scholars claim that Shakespeare' s portrayal of Richard III was extremely inaccurate, arguing that he derived that portrayal from propagandists opposed to Richard III. But these claims are irrelevant for appreciating Shakespeare' s work. The character of Richard III as portrayed in Shakespeare' s drama is fascinating and illuminating both aesthetically and morally, regardless of its relation to historical fact. | The principle that in historical drama, the aesthetic value of the work is not necessarily undermined by historical inaccuracies most helps to justify the reasoning in the argument above. | entailment |
9,943 | In one study, 51 volunteers from middle school students were divided into a test group and a control group and trained in the same math skills. During the five-day training, the researchers used a technique called transcranial random noise stimulation to deliver mild shocks to areas of the brain thought to be related to computing power in 25 members of the test group. The results of subsequent tests showed that the ability to perform mathematical operations of the members of the test group was significantly higher than that of the control group. To their surprise, the improvement of this ability can last at least half a year. As a result, the researchers believe that to deliver mild shocks in the brain can improve the brain's ability to calculate. | The statement 'Before the experiment, the math scores of the two groups were about the same' best supports the researchers' view. | entailment |
10,679 | Although computers can enhance people's ability to communicate, computer games are a cause of underdeveloped communication skills in children. After-school hours spent playing computer games are hours not spent talking with people. Ttherefore, children who spend all their spare time playing these games have less experience in interpersonal communication than other children have. | The assumption that children who do not spend all of their after-school hours playing computer games spend at least some of that time talking with other people is required by the argument. | entailment |
7,968 | Because foreign forecasters often change their posts, and our country has a serious and responsible forecaster team with many years of practical experience, which makes up for the shortcomings of detection equipment and numerical forecasting. | The accuracy of typhoon forecasting is also affected by the situation of the forecaster himself can be known from this passage. | entailment |
947 | Some people say that complete selflessness has two meanings: first, to serve others unconditionally; second, to refuse any service from others. | It is impossible for all people to be completely selfless is the logical inference of the above point of view. | entailment |
9,388 | In one study, the researchers observed the classroom participation of nearly 300 children in grade 2 and grade 4 over the course of a school year. Participation is measured by attentive behavior and distraction in class. The former refers to answering questions, raising hands to speak or participating in discussions, while the latter refers to behaviors such as small talk. In the experiment, half of the students stood at high desks while the other half sat. It was found that the students who stood up and listened to the class were more attentive than those who sat. | The statement "Sitting for a long time will increase the pressure on the spine, which is not conducive to the health of students" can best support the above conclusion. | not-entailment |
11,797 | Although this bottle is labeled vinegar, no fizzing occurred when some of the liquid in it was added to powder from this box labeled baking soda. But when an acidic liquid such as vinegar is added to baking soda the resulting mixture fizzes, so this bottle clearly has been mislabeled. | A flaw in the reasoning in the argument above is that this argument fails to exclude an alternative explanation for the observed effect. | entailment |
14,855 | Airport administrator: According to the latest figures, less than 1 commercial flight in 2 million strays off course while landing, a number low enough to allow runways to be built closer together without a significant increase in risk. Opponents of closer runways claim that the number is closer to 1 in 20, 000, but this figure is based on a partial review of air traffic control tapes and so is relatively unreliable compared to the other figure, which is based on a thorough study of the flight reports required of pilots for all commercial flights. | The argument presumes, without providing justification, that the air traffic control tapes studied do not provide accurate information concerning specific flights most accurately describes a flaw in the airport administrator's argument. | not-entailment |
6,999 | The upper leaves of sugarbeet grow vertically and the leaf clusters are funnel-shaped. the configuration structure of foliar space formed by this growth mode is very powerful in the absorption of light and improves the photosynthetic efficiency of plants and populations.On the other hand, the leaves of plantain are whorled, and the angle between the leaves is 137.5 degrees, which is the chord angle of the golden section of the circle. The leaves grow according to this angle and can make full use of light.As the trunk grows taller, the leaves of the pear tree rise in a logarithmic spiral, and each leaf will not cover the leaves below. | The main content of this text is that different growth environments lead to differences in the growth of plant leaves. | not-entailment |
13,437 | People who browse the web for medical information often cannot discriminate between scientifically valid information and quackery. Much of the quackery is particularly appealing to readers with no medical background because it is usually written more clearly than scientific papers. Thus, people who rely on the web when attempting to diagnose their medical conditions are likely to do themselves more harm than good. | People attempting to diagnose their medical conditions will do themselves more harm than good only if they rely on quackery instead of scientifically valid information is an assumption the argument requires. | not-entailment |
13,228 | To use the pool at City Gym, one must have a membership there. Sarah has a membership at City Gym. She must ttherefore use the pool there at least occasionally. | The argument concludes that a person has a certain attribute simply because that person belongs to a group most of whose members have that attribute is flawed in its reasoning. | not-entailment |
13,594 | Scientists, puzzled about the development of penicillin-resistant bacteria in patients who had not been taking penicillin, believe they have found an explanation. The relevant group of patients have dental fillings made of mercury-containing amalgam, and the bacteria the patients develop are immune to mercury poisoning. Scientists have concluded that the genes causing resistance to penicillin are closely bundled on the chromosomes of bacteria with the gene that produces immunity to mercury poisoning. Exposure to the mercury kills off bacteria that lack the relevant immunity gene, and leaves room for those that possess both the mercury-immunity gene and the penicillin-resistance gene to flourish. | The statement 'It is a generalization that, if true, rules out the possibility that some people who do not take penicillin develop bacteria resistant to it' most accurately characterizes the role played in the passage by the unstated assumption that some patients who take penicillin develop bacteria with an immunity to penicillin. | not-entailment |
9,310 | One theater plans to present seven plays over seven weeks in the fall. They are F, G., J, K, O, R, S. There is one play a week, and each play runs exactly one week. The repertory must meet the following conditions :(1) G must be performed in the third week. (2) O and S cannot be performed continuously. (3) K must be staged before J and S. (4) F and J must be scheduled to perform in two consecutive weeks. | For any acceptable arrangement, F must be scheduled for a week after K. | entailment |
180 | Small animals suitable for experimental use must reproduce fast and their genes should be as similar to humans as possible. Some small animals reproduce fast but have few genes similar to humans. Therefore, some fast-breeding small animals are not suitable for experiments. | According to relevant regulations, to obtain the National Scholarship for Poor Students, applicants must have poor families and excellent grades. Some of the scholarship recipients have very poor families, but their grades are not excellent. Therefore, the rules for assessing the National Scholarship for Poor Students have not been strictly implemented has the most similar logical structure to the question. | not-entailment |
2,184 | There is a lack of financial support for the development of rural tourism, which urgently needs to be solved. Rural tourism scenic spot is a multi-faceted open area which belongs to the public space. The government is duty-bound to improve the development environment. By integrating financial funds, they can promote the upgrading of scenic spots, encourage all localities to increase financial support in the form of prizes instead of compensation, build first and then make up; they can pry financial funds to build a docking platform between banks and the government, solve the loan problems of operators, and increase credit to rural tourism. New financing models such as PPP and crowdfunding can also encourage social capital to enter the countryside so that rural tourism can be invested, well built and well managed. | The construction and management of rural tourism needs financial support is emphasized in this passage. | not-entailment |
2,067 | Liu Yong, the first batch of volunteers for college students to volunteer for the western region, wrote in his diary: there is a kind of job, you don't know the hardship without experience, you don't know the happiness without experiencing it, and you don't know the purity of it without having it. | The main expression of this passage is that happiness comes from one's sincere devotion to work. | entailment |
7,007 | Civilization and culture are different. Civilization makes all ethnic groups in all places more and more similar. according to the German Elyas's process of civilization, civilization is a group society in which everyone lives according to the same rules, just like dancing to a beat and not stepping on his feet; and culture makes a nation different from other nations, it is born, not rules but habits. In fact, urbanization can also be seen this way: with the rapid development of cities, skyscrapers have become urban symbols, which is actually the result of the strong development of modern civilization in every corner of the world. However, we hope that civilization will not overwhelm culture and that identity will not eliminate differences. | The main content of this text is to emphasize the necessity of preserving culture in the process of urbanization. | entailment |
5,157 | Every year, a magazine publishes a ranking of car sales for the year. Management consultants believe that this ranking should not be the basis for each consumer to decide which car to buy. | The statement 'The higher-ranking automakers in the magazine use this to advertise in order to attract more consumers' would best support the management consultant's point of view. | entailment |
9,149 | Due to the aging population, the German government is facing a dilemma: if the pension system is not reformed, pensions will be unsustainable. Policies to solve this dilemma include increasing the proportion of pension contributions, lowering the level of pension payments, and raising the retirement age. Among them, raising the retirement age has faced the greatest resistance, and governments that implement such a policy may lose a large number of votes in the next election. But the German government completed the legal process in 2007 to raise the retirement age from 65 to 67. | The statement 'In 2001, Germany established the upper limit of pension contributions by law, and in 2004, the lower limit of pension payment was determined. The two policies have been used to the extreme' best explains why the German government took the risk with this policy. | entailment |
4,824 | Farmer Xiao Li went to the farmers market to sell fruits,Apples, pears, oranges, and peaches each have a box,three boxes of apples, pears and oranges, with an average of 51 per box;Three boxes of pears, oranges, and peaches, with an average of 47 per box; Two boxes of apples and peaches, with an average of 43 per box. | There are 49 apples. | entailment |
7,046 | Compared with government public relations, non-governmental diplomacy is more flexible, the communication content and carrier are easier to be accepted, and can achieve the effect of moistening things silently. At present, more and more foreign people visit China, more and more Chinese citizens go abroad, and the development of online media also makes it easier for the general public to influence public opinion. Therefore, we should make good use of the situation, through news media and community organizations, non-governmental organizations and other channels, guide the domestic public to actively cooperate with public diplomacy, actively disseminate China's cultural traditions and values, and maintain the national image. | The passage is intended to emphasize the difference between non-governmental diplomacy and government public relations. | entailment |
3,255 | Suppose if Zhang Nan and Lin Feng are not volunteers, then Yangmei is a volunteer is the premise, Lin Feng is a volunteer is the conclusion | The premise of the argument is that neither Yang nor Zhang is a volunteer. | entailment |
12,005 | Electric washing machines, first introduced in the United States in 1925, significantly reduced the amount of time spent washing a given amount of clothes, yet the average amount of time households spent washing clothes increased after 1925. This increase is partially accounted for by the fact that many urban households had previously sent their clothes to professional laundries. But the average amount of time spent washing clothes also increased for rural households with no access to professional laundries. | The earliest electric washing machines required the user to spend much more time beside the machine than do modern electric washing machines most helps to explain why the time spent washing clothes increased in rural areas. | not-entailment |
6,448 | The issue of food security has become a focus of our government and society. From the international background, affected by the American subprime crisis, asset prices represented by stocks and real estate are falling rapidly all over the world. Because of the decline in the stock and real estate markets, a huge amount of hot money around the world has shifted the focus of speculation to oil and food, leading to rising prices of oil and food, two commodities that affect human clothing, food, housing and transportation. From a domestic point of view, after this year's bumper summer grain harvest, grain prices continue to hover at low prices, widening the price gap with the international market. At the same time, the prices of vegetables, pork and many materials are rising, but grain prices have not risen significantly. Once China's existing grain price system is lost, it will directly affect the normal operation of our economy and social stability. | The statement 'Substantially raising domestic grain prices and narrowing the price gap at home and abroad are important strategies for China to deal with the global food crisis' is not in line with the idea of this text. | entailment |
78 | The four teams A, B, C, and D are in a round robin match (each team has one game against the other teams). The results: Team B loses one game, Team C wins one less than Team B, and Team B wins one less than Team D. | The ranking of Team A is fourth place. | entailment |
1,260 | According to a survey report in 2017, more than 80 percent of households believe that reading is an important way for children to understand the world and acquire knowledge, and more than 60 percent believe that reading is of great significance for children to develop loving learning habits and healthy character. In real life, more than 30% of the minor children of the surveyed families can read every day, and more than 60% of the children can read between half an hour and an hour at a time. But only 30% of the parents surveyed often accompany their children to read, and nearly 60% of families let their children read by themselves. Interestingly, although parents themselves have taken up too much time by mobile phones, computers and TV, some parents want to squeeze their children's time to play with electronic products and watch TV with the help of reading. | The most suitable title for this passage is 'Put down your phone so that you can read with your children.' | not-entailment |
3,711 | If a city wants to develop the exhibition industry well, it needs to build a nest to attract the phoenix, which first has the foundation of software and hardware, and then attracts exhibition activities. Having complete exhibition facilities and ideal traffic conditions only shows that a city has the hardware foundation for the development of convention and exhibition industry. in order to attract a sufficient number of high-quality exhibition activities, it is also necessary to improve the level of public services and build a good business environment, so as to strengthen the construction of soft power. | If the above statement is true, then it is not possible for Ding City to have complete exhibition facilities and ideal traffic conditions, but not have the hardware basis for the development of the exhibition industry. | entailment |
12,105 | A person' s personality is linked to that person' s genes. And since a person' s genes do not ordinarily change over time, it follows that a person' s personality remains unchanged with the passing of time. | The statement "The way historians understand the First World War is related to what happened in that war. But what actually happened in that war cannot change. Therefore, historians' understanding of the war cannot change" is most closely parallel in its reasoning to the flawed reasoning in the argument above. | entailment |
8,856 | Both Zhang Fei and Li Bai applied for the MBA this year, and there are four assertions about their exams as follows: (1) at least one of them passed the exam; (2) Zhang Fei did not necessarily pass the exam; (3) Li Bai did pass the exam; (4) it is not that Zhang Fei may not have passed the exam. The final admission results show that two of the four assertions are true and two are false. | Zhang Fei passed the exam, but Li Bai failed can be inferred from the above conditions. | entailment |
10,890 | One of the things lenders do in evaluating the risk of a potential borrower defaulting on a loan is to consider the potential borrower' s credit score. In general, the higher the credit score, the less the risk of default. Yet for mortgage loans, the proportion of defaults is much higher for borrowers with the highest credit scores than for other borrowers. | The statement "Most potential borrowers have credit scores that are neither very low nor very high" most helps to resolve the apparent discrepancy in the statements above. | not-entailment |
4,013 | The greatest protection against the ability of life on Earth's surface is that the Earth's magnetic field deflects large amounts of charged ions and isolates large amounts of harmful cosmic rays from the atmosphere. Recently, scientists found that the South Atlantic magnetic field began to flip the Earth's magnetic field is being weakened. They have studied the idea that if the Earth's magnetic field were reversed, all living things would be extinct without magnetic protection. | At present, in the South Atlantic, within the abnormal region, orbiting satellites pass by here, often with problems best supports the above conclusion. | not-entailment |
9,488 | Soaring carbon dioxide emissions are causing global warming, putting glaciers in the Himalayas where Mount Everest is at risk of shrinking dramatically. The study shows that the rapid melting of glaciers occurs in the glacial-concentrated areas of Mount Everest at an altitude of 5,000 to 6,000 meters, and these places will only see ice in winter and not during the warmer season. Experts theorize that the rate of glacier loss in the Himalayas is likely to accelerate based on future climate change trends, and if temperatures continue to rise as predicted over the course of the century, the region's glaciers will eventually disappear. | The statement "The glaciers above 7,000 meters above sea level on Mount Everest show no signs of rapid melting" would most weaken the above conclusion. | entailment |
1,075 | Silent behavior refers to the behavior of deliberately retaining one's own ideas in the face of hidden dangers in management system or production activities, in order to avoid interpersonal conflict, fear of retaliation or maintain one's face. | Silent behavior is when Xiao Liu has an idea at a new product development report meeting but doesn't comment on it because he thinks it's not mature enough. | entailment |
1,621 | If urban educational resources can be fairly distributed among different schools, there will be no difference between key schools and ordinary schools, and some teachers will not get rich due to the excessive accumulation of educational resources. If educational resources are fairly distributed among regions and mountain schools in remote areas can get more investment, rural education will not be so difficult. | The passage mainly talks about regional disparity in the distribution of educational resources. | not-entailment |
3,296 | With the growth of age, People's demand for material gradually decreased, and spiritual demand gradually increased. Therefore, in order to meet the growing spiritual needs, the elderly should take more active part in recreational and sports activities than when they are young. | The statement 'With the development of society, the old people have more spiritual needs than the young people' can best support the above discussion. | not-entailment |
10,862 | DataCom, a company that filed many patents last year, was financially more successful last year than were its competitors, none of which filed many patents. It is ttherefore likely that DataCom owed its greater financial success to the fact that it filed many patents last year. | The argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it presupposes what it sets out to demonstrate about the relationship between the financial success of DataCom's competitors and the number of patents they filed. | not-entailment |
8,359 | The development of a country should be committed to making the cake of economic development bigger, on this basis, pay attention to fair distribution. For regional economic development, the concept of comparative advantage should be firmly established. There are great differences in physical and geographical conditions in different places. Even if the two natural conditions are exactly the same, geographically adjacent provinces or cities, the best mode of development is not for everyone to develop the same production structure, but should have their own division of labor. | The author emphasizes the idea that the model of regional development should be different in different geographical conditions. | not-entailment |
7,531 | An enterprise has 7 directors, including A, B, C, D, E, J and G, who implement the collective decision-making system. The system stipulates that a decision can be adopted if more than half of the participants vote for it, otherwise it cannot be adopted; Each director shall exercise the right to vote for or against all proposed decisions without abstention. At another decision making meeting. The directors are all present and need to vote on three proposals, no. 1, no. 2 and No. 3. Known:(1)Each director voted for and against at least one of the three proposals.(2)A is for Proposition 1 but against Proposition 2.(3)B supports proposals 1 and 3;(4)E is in favor of Proposition 1;(5)G opposes proposals 1 and 2 | If the choice of d is the exact opposite of G, then proposition 2 can pass. | not-entailment |
9,541 | Although footprint fossils can not preserve the complete morphology of organisms like solid fossils, we can analyze the general morphological and behavioral characteristics of organisms from footprint fossils. In other words, when there is a lack of direct evidence, we can only use indirect evidence-footprint fossils to speculate about the environment, which animals left footprints, whether they have complex animal behavior and so on. Therefore, during the transition period from Precambrian to Cambrian, footprint fossils are particularly important. | During the transition period from Precambrian to Cambrian, the preserved animal fossils are very rare is a necessary premise for the establishment of the above conclusion. | entailment |
3,323 | According to medical records, the global incidence of cancer in the second half of the 20th century than the first half of the increase of nearly 10 times, become a threat to human life of the first killer. This shows that the global ecological imbalance caused by the rapid economic development marked by high technology in the second half of the 20th century is an important cause of cancer. | The statement 'High technology has greatly improved the human ability to prevent and treat cancer, effectively prolonging the life time of cancer patients' can weaken the above argument, except. | not-entailment |
2,532 | The survey shows that an important factor leading to the decline of college students' academic performance is that many college students play online games. In order to improve the academic performance of college students, the school decided to prohibit playing online games on campus. | College students mainly play online games in Internet cafes can most challenge the school's decision. | entailment |
8,619 | If the diversity of tree species in a forest is very rich, then the loss of one species at this time will not have much impact on the productivity of the entire forest; but when the species diversity is scarcer, the number of tree species will continue to decrease, which will affect the productivity of the entire forest. The hit to the productivity of the entire forest will be bigger and bigger. | Forest-wide productivity won't be affected unless tree species diversity plummets can be inferred. | entailment |
14,412 | Grammarians have for years condemned as ungrammatical the English phrase between you and I, insisting that the correct phrasing is between you and me, with the objective case after a preposition. Such condemnations, however, are obviously unfounded, because Shakespeare himself, in The Merchant of Venice, wrote, All debts are cleared between you and I. | In his plays, Shakespeare intentionally had some of his characters use phrases he considered ungrammatical most seriously weakens the argument above. | entailment |
9,332 | Statistics are divided into qualitative data and quantitative data. Qualitative data includes categorical and ordinal data. Categorical data refers to non-numeric data that can only be assigned to a certain category, which is the result of classifying things and expressed in words; sequential data refers to non-numeric data that can be assigned to an ordered category. Quantitative data are data that represent specific numerical observations. ①Cities can be divided into megacities, large cities, medium cities and small cities according to the size of the city; ②Marital status: 1-unmarried, 2-married, 3-divorced, 4-widowed; ③The distance from place A to place B is 200 kilometers, 320 kilometers to C and 100 kilometers to D; ④ A hospital has a construction area of 50,000 square meters, 3,182 open beds and 687 clinicians. | Based on the above definition, ②④ are classified data. | not-entailment |
3,749 | The microwave oven relies on the microwave to make the internal molecules of the food move violently and make the food itself hot, so that the food is heated evenly inside and outside, and the phenomenon of exogenous internal coke will not occur. Induction cooker by heating the bottom of the pot, transfers heat from the outside of the food to the inside to complete cooking, which is more in line with people's traditional cooking habits, while the direct heating of the bottom of the pot by using eddy current avoids the loss in the process of heat transfer, there is no open fire, and it is hygienic and safe,this is better than the electric stove. | The principle of electrothermal heating of food is the same as that of an induction cooker cannot be inferred. | entailment |
11,070 | Professor Hartley' s new book on moral philosophy contains numerous passages that can be found verbatim in an earlier published work by Hartley' s colleague, Professor Lawrence. Ttherefore, in view of the fact that these passages were unattributed in Hartley' s book, Hartley has been dishonest in not acknowledging the intellectual debt owed to Lawrence. | The assumption that Lawrence did not get the ideas in the passages in question or did not get their formulations originally from Hartley is an assumption on which the argument is based. | entailment |
3,159 | A company stipulates that only employees who have worked continuously in the company for more than 20 years or have outstanding achievements can enjoy the special allowance issued by the company. Although Xiao Zhang has only worked in the company for 3 years, he now enjoys the special allowance issued by the company, so he must have made outstanding achievements. | The reasoning mode of the following options is most similar to the above problem stem: 'The perfection of the legal system or the powerful social control ability of the rulers are essential conditions for maintaining a country's social stability. A country's society is stable, but the legal system is not perfect. Therefore, its rulers must have strong social control ability'. | entailment |
5,909 | Unfair competition refers to enterprise uses improper or unfair means to increase the market share of its products, creating an unfair market environment for competitors that produce similar products, and seriously harming the interests of its competitors. | By definition, both Company A and Company B produce weight-loss drugs. In order to expand market share and increase sales profits, Company A made a big publicity on TV stations and some newspapers, pointing out the shortcomings and side effects of Company B's drugs, causing consumers to refuse to buy Company B's products is not unfair competition. | entailment |
12,553 | Curator: If our museum lends Venus to the Hart Institute for their show this spring, they will lend us their Rembrandt etchings for our print exhibition next fall. Having those etchings will increase attendance to the exhibition and hence increase revenue from our general admission fee. Museum Administrator: But Venus is our biggest attraction. Moreover the Hart's show will run for twice as long as our exhibition. So on balance the number of patrons may decrease. | The point of the administrator's response to the curator is to question whether getting the Rembrandt etchings from the Hart Institute is likely to increase attendance at the print exhibition. | not-entailment |
7,765 | It is often said that reading can increase knowledge and cultivate temperament. Some experts have pointed out that reading can also cure diseases, especially for mental illnesses caused by some social factors, such as depression, depression, panic, worry, etc., reading has a good effect. | The statement "Patients can get emotional recognition and comfort from reading intentionally or unintentionally, and release their inner anxiety and anxiety" can best support the opinions of the above-mentioned experts. | entailment |
9,960 | A company has a six-story office building. The company's finance department, planning department, administration department, sales department, human resources department, R & D department and other six departments work here, each department occupies one floor. It is known that: (1) the floors of the human resources department and the sales department are not adjacent; (2) the finance department is on the lower floor of the planning department; (3) the floor of the administration department is above the planning department, but below the human resources department. | The R & D department and sales department may be located on the first and second floors, respectively. | entailment |
13,231 | A recent poll of a large number of households found that 47 percent of those with a cat had at least one person with a university degree, while 38 percent of households with a dog had at least one person with a university degree. Clearly, people who hold university degrees are more likely to live in a household with a cat than one with a dog. | The statement 'ignores the possibility that a significant number of households might have both a cat and a dog' is the reasoning in the argument that is flawed. | not-entailment |
5,340 | A hypothesis is a hypothetical explanation of the universal regularity and causality of unknown things based on known scientific principles and certain factual materials. | AIDS is caused by mycoplasma and HIV is not a hypothesis. | entailment |
14,541 | Over the past few decades dozens of people have claimed to have sighted the Yeti in the Himalayas. This provides strong evidence that the creature exists. | The reasoning in the argument is questionable because the argument fails to consider the absence of photographs of the Yeti. | not-entailment |

14,764 | From the observation that each member of a group could possess a characteristic, it is fallacious to conclude immediately that it is possible for all the group' s members to possess the characteristic. An example in which the fallacy is obvious: arguing that because each of the players entering a tennis tournament has a possibility of winning it, there is ttherefore a possibility that all will win the tournament. | The statement 'Each of the many nominees could be appointed to any one of the three openings on the committee. Therefore it is possible for all of the nominees to be appointed to the openings on the committee' commits the fallacy described above. | entailment |
4,535 | As a new thing, bike sharing has developed rapidly recently. The shadow of bike sharing can be seen almost everywhere in the streets and alleys of the city. Bike sharing constitutes a new and beautiful scenery in the city and also provides convenience for people's travel. However, some citizens are worried about the whole bicycle production industry. They believe that the emergence of bike sharing and a large number of bikes are put into use.This makes many individuals who plan to buy Bicycles no longer buy bicycles. As a result, the production and sales of the whole bicycle industry decreased | The statement 'Shared bicycles are produced by bicycle manufacturers entrusted by the company to which they belong. The number of shared bicycles far exceeds the purchase volume due to personal needs' weakens the conclusion of these citizens. | entailment |
10,717 | Lourdes: Dietary fiber is an important part of a healthful diet. Experts recommend that adults consume 20 to 35 grams of fiber a day. Kyra: But a daily intake of fiber that is significantly above that recommended level interferes with mineral absorption, especially the absorption of calcium. The public should be told to cut back on fiber intake. | The statement 'Among adults, the average consumption of dietary fiber is at present approximately 10 grams a day' most undermines Kyra's recommendation. | entailment |
7,027 | In 1993, scholars pointed out that the examination system is closely related to the national education system and social situation of various countries, and the examination system of some countries is highly persistent and difficult to change;In some countries, the examination system is undergoing substantial or even rapid restructuring. In addition, the reform direction of examination system in different countries is also different | The author's point of view reflected in this passage is that we should reform the recruitment system of colleges and universities according to the specific situation of the country. | not-entailment |
7,010 | Nowadays, film creations make a lot of repeated use of hot topics. There is a market for a theme, and many people flock on it, which is not a healthy film ecology. In contrast, the excavation of national culture is rare, such as the development of traditional festivals such as Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, and the use of national artistic elements such as Kunqu Opera and Huangmei Opera. Once the cultural wealth of the Chinese nation is excavated attentively, what is presented in front of the creators is a splendid treasure house of art, and domestic films will also usher in a spring of a hundred flowers blooming. | The most accurate summary of the main thrust of this passage is that domestic films should not fall into the misunderstanding of theme reuse. | not-entailment |
12,286 | Scientific and technological discoveries have considerable effects on the development of any society. It follows that predictions of the future condition of societies in which scientific and technological discovery is particularly frequent are particularly untrustworthy. | The argument depends on assuming that forecasts of scientific and technological discoveries, or forecasts of their effects, are not entirely reliable. | entailment |
13,073 | Clinician: Patients with immune system disorders are usually treated with a class of drugs that, unfortunately, increase the patient' s risk of developing osteoporosis, a bone-loss disease. So these patients take another drug that helps to preserve existing bone. Since a drug that enhances the growth of new bone cells has now become available, these patients should take this new drug in addition to the drug that helps to preserve existing bone. | To what extent does the new drug retain its efficacy when used in combination with the other drugs would be most useful to know in order to evaluate the clinician's argument. | entailment |
254 | A, B, and C sell their products. Among the three products, one is counterfeit, and the other two are genuine. A said: My product is genuine, and B's product is counterfeit; B said: My product is genuine, and C's product is counterfeit; C said: B's product is genuine, A's product is counterfeit. It is known that one of A, B, and C told all turth, one half turth, half lie, and the other told all lies | A sells counterfeit goods. | entailment |

13,323 | Brian: Reporters and photographers are legally required to automatically distort the features of any bystanders whose faces might be shown on television before they can broadcast the taped segment. Yet when people are interviewed for a story, this practice is not followed. If we were as concerned about protecting the privacy of people as we say we are, then reporters would be required to automatically distort the features of the people they interview too. Jessica: But consider this: A person being interviewed can simply ask to have his or her features distorted if he or she wants privacy, where it might not be possible for the bystanders to know they are being filmed. So you see, automatically distorting the features of people being interviewed is not necessary. | Jessica attempts to counter Brian's argument by pointing out a relevant distinction between the two groups to weaken an analogy that Brian bases his argument on. | entailment |
13,156 | Editorial: The threat of harsh punishment for a transgression usually decreases one' s tendency to feel guilt or shame for committing that transgression, and the tendency to feel guilt or shame for committing a transgression reduces a person' s tendency to commit transgressions. Thus, increasing the severity of the legal penalties for transgressions may amplify people' s tendency to ignore the welfare of others. | The threat of harsh punishment deters people from committing transgressions only if this threat is at least sometimes carried out is an assumption required by the editorial's argument. | not-entailment |
1,400 | The difficulties in life and the loneliness of my heart made me waver for my choice. Often worry about eating, or miss my mother can only make a phone call, I really regret my impulsive choice. But think about it, after all, this is my own decision, and it will only take half a year. But soon, seeing that the English grades of these rural children improved and the children who dropped out of school returned to the classroom, I think I found the feeling that I like it here. | Young volunteers are most likely to be the author's occupation. | entailment |
5,110 | Industrial property rights refer to the possession of intellectual achievements such as inventions and remarkable marks used in production and circulation within a certain period and region as stipulated by law. | The right of an electrical appliance manufacturer to a brand created after years of hard work belongs to industrial property rights according to the above definition. | entailment |
50 | For a certain type of ulcer, traditional therapy can completely heal 44% of patients' ulcers within 6 months. A new therapy for this type of ulcer has achieved obvious improves in 80% of the ulcers treated in a 6-month trial. 61% of ulcers were healed. Since the trial only treated those ulcers very severe, this new treatment is obviously more effective than traditional treatments. | In order to better compare the effects of the two therapies, additional evidence that needs to be added is the proportion of patients with this type of ulcer, treated under traditional therapies in 6 months, who have achieved significant improvement. | entailment |
2,965 | It is known that birds can sense the earth's magnetic field and use them to navigate. Recently, scientists in a country found that birds actually use their right eyes to view the earth's magnetic field. To test this theory, when birds began to migrate, scientists in the country put several Robin birds into a funnel-shaped and huge cage, and put a special metal eye mask that can shield the earth's magnetic field on one eye of some Robin birds. The walls of the cage are coated with marking substances. Birds can fly out only through the narrow mouth of the cage. If the bird touches the cage wall, it will stick a marker to judge whether the bird can find its direction. | The statement 'The bird without eye mask and the bird with eye mask on the right eye flew out of the cage smoothly, and the bird with eye mask on the left eye flew in either direction' can best support the researchers' findings if correct. | not-entailment |
12,883 | Outbreaks of Rift Valley fever occur irregularly in East Africa, several years apart. When outbreaks do occur, they kill thousands of cattle. A livestock vaccine against the disease exists but is rarely used. It is too expensive for farmers to use routinely, and since it is not effective until a month after vaccination, administering it after an outbreak begins helps very little. Nevertheless, experts predict that use of the vaccine will increase significantly within the next few years. | Recently published research has shown that certain identifiable climatic conditions are almost invariably followed, within two to five months, by an outbreak of Rift Valley fever provides the strongest justification for the experts' prediction. | entailment |
13,047 | Literary critic: A folktale is a traditional story told in an entertaining way, which may lead some to think that folktales lack deeper meaning. But this is not the case. A folktale is passed along by a culture for generations, and each storyteller adds something of his or her own to the story, and in this way folktales provide great insight into the wisdom of the culture. | The main conclusion of the literary critic's argument can be properly inferred if the assumption that 'Any tale that is passed along by a culture for generations can provide great insight into the wisdom of that culture' is made. | not-entailment |
10,615 | According to current geological theory, the melting of ice at the end of the Ice Age significantly reduced the weight pressing on parts of the earth' s crust. As a result, lasting cracks in the earth' s crust appeared in some of those parts under the stress of pressure from below. At the end of the Ice Age Sweden was racked by severe earthquakes. Ttherefore, it is likely that the melting of the ice contributed to these earthquakes. | The statement "Severe earthquakes are generally caused by cracking of the earth's crust near the earthquake site" most strengthens the argument above. | entailment |
233 | There are four blood types: A, B, O, and AB. People with the same blood type can transfuse each other. Only people with O type can be transfused to people of any blood type, but only O type can be accepted, and the other three cannot be accepted. Only people with blood type AB can accept blood of any type, but they can only be transfused to people with blood type AB. People of the other three blood types cannot accept blood type AB. It is known that Zhao is of blood type A. Qian can't accept Zhao's blood, nor can he transfuse to Zhao, Sun can accept Zhao's blood, but can't transfuse to Zhao, Li can't accept Zhao's blood, but can transfuse to Zhao. | According to the above conditions, Qian has blood type B, Sun has blood type AB, and Li has blood type O. | entailment |
