City resident: These new digital electronic billboards should be banned for light pollution since they are much too bright.
Outdoor advertising spokesperson: No, that’s not true. Testing with a sophisticated light meter shows that at night they throw off less light than traditional billboards that are reflectively lit.
Your mistaken perception that they are brighter comes from looking directly at the light source—the screen itself.
The underlying strategy of the spokesperson’s response to the resident is most analogous to the underlying strategy of which of the following?
A doctor dismisses a patient’s claim to have had a heart attack, citing a cardiac enzyme blood test.
A politician rejects an accusation of perjury by denying the credibility of witness testimony.
An insurance agent rejects a claim, on the grounds that there is insufficient evidence to support the claimant’s testimony.
An investigator casts doubt on the results of a lie detector, citing the subject’s report of illness during the test.
A psychologist treats a mental illness by encouraging a patient to abandon inconsistent beliefs.
spokesman用客观事实证明not brighter去反驳resident主观性地直视灯源而下的主观性结论brighter。因此,我们要选的就是与spokesman类似的推理方法:用客观的事实反驳主观的判断!
市民觉得太亮费电,发言人,Testing with a sophisticated light meter用专业的测量过,不费电
A 医生说病人没病,用了血液检查(专业测量)
D 调查员怀疑测谎仪,用了病例的问题 (怀疑了专业仪器啊,啊啊啊啊 我看反了)
