Whittaker: There can be no such thing as the number of medical school students who drop out before their second year, because if they drop out, they never have a second year.

Hudson: By your reasoning I cannot help but become rich, because there is similarly no such thing as my dying before my first million dollars is in the bank.

Hudson responds to Whittaker by

(A) showing that a relevantly analogous argument leads to an untenable conclusion

請教W說的那句話是什麼意思? 謝謝

no such thing as 。。。  =   没有类似。。。的事情

二年级以前 退学，是 没有 这种情况的。
因为，如果真的有退学的话，他们就 不可能 有二年级了。

版主你好
the number of medical school students who drop out before their second year
我觉得主词是 the number , 请问这句话的verb在哪里呢?

另外, 你所说"真的有退学的话，他们就 不可能 有二年级了。"这句话逻辑错点是什么?
谢谢

the number of medical school students （who drop out before their second year）
里
① the number 是 名词短语，在 no such thing as。。。 句型中做 as 后 的 成分。
② （who drop out before their second year）修饰 students。
-----------------------------------------------
"真的有退学的话，他们就 不可能 有二年级了。"
从这句话，得出了错误的结论:"二年级以前 退学，是 没有 这种情况的"。

退学这种情况，是可能发生的。
