Distressed by his own personal tragedies, the Roman philosopher Cicero once asked himself whether a wise person should try to achieve the Stoic ideal of complete emotionlessness. Cicero reasoned that, however desirable the goal may be, a wise person could never attain it, since emotions are not simply irrational urges. They are, rather, a product of one’s estimate of the goodness and badness of the events, people, and actions one witnesses.
Which of the following is an assumption required by Cicero’s reasoning?
Wise people inevitably evaluate at least some of the things they observe.
Irrationality makes evaluation of what one observes impossible.
Wisdom precludes attempting to attain what one cannot.
If evaluations are based only on reason, then they are inaccurate.
A wise person will not evaluate what cannot be directly observed.
总结：评估→聪明人“动情”
原文：whether a wise person should try to 【achieve the Stoic ideal of complete emotionlessness 实现没有感情的stoic理想】。
C：无论目标多么令人向往，一个聪明的人wise person 永远无法【attain it 实现它=实现没有感情的emotionlessness stoic理想】，
P：∵ 情绪emotion不仅仅是not simply 非理性的冲动 irrational urges。
（对比 rather）情绪emotion is 一个人【估计 estimate 】其目睹的事件、人物和行为好坏的产物。
结论是：【聪明人①】永远不可能达到【无情②】。
前提是：【情感②】是人们对好坏的【评估③】（也就是你只要评估了，就会有情）
assumption假设：搭桥gap ①←②→③
选项A：
【Wise people=wise person ①】 inevitably 【evaluate=估计 estimate③ 】 at least some of the 【things they observe=情绪emotion②】.
【聪明的人 ①】不可避免地会至少【评估③】他们【观察到的一些事情②】。
取非：聪明的人 对他们看到的一些东西 【不】评估evaluate---那就没有emotion---达成emotionlessness---削弱
