OG12-63 逻辑恶题

63. When hypnotized subjects are told that they are deaf
and are then asked whether they can hear the
hypnotist, they reply, “No.” Some theorists try to
explain this result by arguing that the selves of
hypnotized subjects are dissociated into separate
parts, and that the part that is deaf is dissociated
from the part that replies.
Which of the following challenges indicates the most
serious weakness in the attempted explanation
described above?
(A) Why does the part that replies not answer, “Yes”?
(B) Why are the observed facts in need of any
special explanation?
(C) Why do the subjects appear to accept the
hypnotist’s suggestion that they are deaf?
(D) Why do hypnotized subjects all respond the
same way in the situation described?
(E) Why are the separate parts of the self the same
for all subjects?
正解是A
既然A对了为什么D不对？文中解释说deaf和reply部分没关系，那应该不会都只回答no，应该可能回答no，yes，不回答。。。等等各种可能。
(D) Why do hypnotized subjects all respond the same way in the situation described? D正好指出了这一点 why all respond in the same way，而这一点是文中的explaination无法解释的，那不就是答案了吗？实在不解，求助，谢谢。

话说，我觉得D是无关项。。。。。。。给我选我就选A，不过对不起LZ，我不知道怎么解答你的问题~CR太弱了~

我这题第一次做也错了，这道题思路是不是这样的：如果真如同argument所说，reply和假定他们是deaf是两个分开，没有联系的部分，那也就代表着不会互相影响。那么被问及能不能听到别人说话时，人们自然是会回答yes了，因为他们不是真的聋了，而且deaf的假设也对他们的reply没有影响（所以不存在你说的大家有回答yes,no或者其他的情况）。然而，那些人回答的却是no,说明deaf的假设和reply还是互相有影响的，所以就可能削弱argument所说的deaf和reply是dissociated。所以A是直接关系到evaluate文中argument的。由于你刚刚说的那种大家回答不一样的情况不存在，所以D肯定是错的

题干中theorist的解释是被催眠的人的意识被分成了“deaf part”和“the part that replies the question”.
按照这个逻辑，被催眠的人在回答问题“can you hear me?”时,回答应该是“yes。”因为如果“deaf part”起作用的，回答才应该是“no”

For D, the question will bring too many unnecessary variables of the objects to consider, such as the age; hence the "same answer" is not close to "two separate parts"
For A, you have to show the answer to " why not yes" is related to what has been asked; therefore the two parts may be connected.

tks all above. Flyincat's expl is quite clear for me, allowing for  the confused point is that the objects in question are not deaf indeed.
