U1 ARGUEMENTS
这一章介绍了ARGUEMENTS的概念,这个概念将会贯穿整个课程。
argument由premise和conclusion组成,从premise推导出conclusion的过程叫inference。
记住一些inference indicators: because, consequently, therefore, since, that's why, so, obviously, as, due to the fact that, it follows that, the proof is.
argument的standard form:
- premise 1
- premise 2
——————————
- conclusion
判断argument用good/bad, 判断premise&conclusion用true/false.
