QUESTION TYPE: Most Strongly Supported
FACTS:
- Both computers and nonhuman animals don’t think.
- Computers don’t have volitional powers.
- Some nonhuman animals have volitional powers.
ANALYSIS: You can combine statements. Computers don’t think, and they don’t have volitional powers.
Likewise, no nonhuman animals think, but some of them have volitional powers.
So some nonhuman animals don’t think but do have volitional powers.
___________
- CORRECT. This is true because some nonhumans animals have volitional powers, and all nonhuman animals do not think.
- Hard to say. We know computers don’t, but maybe some non-animal things do have volitional powers.
- This is pretty strong. Just because computers don’t think doesn’t mean they aren’t similar to use in other ways. We’re both made of atoms, for example.
- Who knows. Maybe there are some things that can think but that don’t have volitional powers.
- Hard to say. In the future, we might be able to create a computer that can think.
