A fourth-grade teacher was giving her pupils a lesson on logic.
Here is the situation, she said. a man is standing2 up in a boat in the middle of a river, fishing. He loses his balance, falls in, and begins splashing and yellin
g for help. His wife hears the commotion3, knows that he can't swim, and runs down to the bank. Why do you think she ran to the bank?
A girl raised her hand and asked, to draw out all of his savings4?
逻辑推理
四年级的教师正在给学生们上一堂逻辑课。她举了这么一个例子:有如此一种状况,一个男性在河中心的船上钓鱼,忽然失去重心掉进了水里。于是他开始挣扎并喊救命。他的老婆听到了他的喊声,了解他并不会游泳,所以她就急忙跑向河岸。哪个能告诉我这是为何? 一个女孩举手答道,是否去取他的存款?
[注]bank在英语中除去大家平常很了解的银行以外,还有河岸的意思。
