Psychologist: In a survey, several hundred volunteers rated their own levels of self-control and their overall life satisfaction. The volunteers who rated themselves as having better self- control also reported greater satisfaction with their lives. This suggests that self-control is one factor that helps people avoid situations likely to produce dissatisfaction.
In order to assess the strength of the psychologist’s argument, it would be most helpful to know whether
people typically rate themselves as having significantly better self-control than expert psychological assessments would rate them as having
people's perceptions of how satisfied they are with their lives could be affected by factors of which they are unaware
there is a high level of self-control that tends to reduce overall life satisfaction
people's ratings of their overall satisfaction with their lives tend to temporarily decrease in situations likely to produce dissatisfaction
feelings of dissatisfaction significantly interfere with people’s ability to exercise self-control
加强:
A:人们对自己自我控制能力的评价 往往比 心理专家对他们的自我控制能力 更高 (无关)
B:生活满意度会受到别的,他们没意识到的因素的影响 (削弱)
C:高程度的自我控制会减少生活满意度 (削弱)
D:生活满意度 在会出现不满意的情境下 会短暂下降 (无关)
E:对生活的不满情绪会显著影响自我控制的能力 (同增长)
E:feelings of 【dissatisfaction】 significantly interfere with people’s ability to exercise【self-control】
E --> Suppose E were correct; feelings of dissatisfaction make effective self-control less likely. --> Self-control is the effect rather than the cause of feelings of satisfaction.
B错在原文没有否定其他因素的影响,结论中说 self-control is ONE factor
只有e 提到了dissatisfaction和self control 的关系
C,自律减少满意--》自律减少了不满的反面,并不能说明自律是会增加不满还是会减少不满
D,不满的rating和不满的关系,没自律啥事
E,不满阻碍了自律--》意思是因为不满,所以不自律,而不是因为自律,所以必考不满。给了另一个方向的因果。
