------题目------
Woven baskets characterized by a particular distinctive pattern have previously been found only in the immediate vicinity of the prehistoric village of Palea and therefore were believed to have been unique to the Palean people. Recently, however, archaeologists discovered such a 'Palean' basket in Lithos, an ancient village across the Brim River from Palea. The Brim River is very deep and broad, and so the ancient Paleans could only have crossed it by boat, but there is no evidence that the Paleans had boats. And boats capable of carrying groups of people and cargo were not developed until thousands of years after the Palean people disappeared. Moreover, Paleans would have had no need to cross the river—the woods around Palea are full of nuts, berries, and small game. It follows that the so-called Palean baskets were not unique to Palea.
------正文------
In this argument for supporting the conclusion that the so-called Palean baskets were not unique to Palea, for the reason that it is found in another village called Lithos ,an assumption demonstrated before as that the people in Palea are incapable to across the river –Rrim River. To further convince the conclusion ,the arguer provides us with another assumption that there is no need for Paleans people to come across the river, though the assumptions of question are superficially correct , this argument is fraught with the mistakes ,such as false dilemma, oversimplification.
In the first place , the argument suffers from a false dilemma-the arguer simply reason that without a boat , people in Palea can not across the river ,under the reason of contemporary geographical condition .Even if the river seems to be deep and broad contemporary , but deeply considered, to the discipline of geographical transformation , It does not follow that thousand of years ago the depth of river had hardly changed compared to the present, unless the arguer could supply us with more precise researches on the geographical level , the evidence regarding the depth and the broad of the river may turn out to be invalid and ineffective .Moreover, the author simply thought only through boat can Paleans across the river , while, it is very likely that some other forms of boat-like inventions that will help people to across the river. Finally , the author hint that boat that can carry groups of people and cargo developed thousands of years after the extinction of Palea , but he fails to illustrate us the possibility of the there may lie some boats to carry solo person.
In addition , there exists another groundless assumption with a dilemma fallacy- the author innocently reasons if there is no material needs for the people to across the river , then there will be no other reasons for people to communicate with the Lithos, however , based on the understanding of the mental needs of the humans’ is the conclusion that people may have other desire need to be satisfy , for instance , on the side of the river there is a beautiful woman , while , on the other , there is a handsome man .They two fall in love with each other , to the human commonplace cognition , whatever hardship confronts before the two , they will try every efforts to reach the side of the other’s. Unless we are certain about that if there really exist any relationship or connection between the two place , both of which are unknown for this argument , we will have some reasons to advocate for the conclusion.
In sum , lacking the persuasive power , the conclusion is relied on gratuitous assumption , to strengthen the conclusion , we should figure out whether the river is truly the impede between the two village, moreover ,until the arguer could provide some complete research to demonstrate there is no communication between the two village, I would suspend my judgment about the reliability of the conclusion.
