问题        Though agreeing with Descartes that consciousness and extension are
       qualitatively distinct, Spinoza’s dual-aspect theory denied that consciousness
       and extension are inherent characteristics of two finite substances, treating
Line     them instead as attributes of the infinite substance of a transcendent
(5)      intelligence. While mental occurrences can dictate only other mental
       occurrences and physical motions can determine only other physical motions,
       mind and body exist in pre-established coordination, since the same self-
       consistent intelligence establishes affinities and connections within both classes.
       Another alternative, psychophysical parallelism, retains both the dualism of
(10)     mind and body and the notion of a regular correlation between mental and
       physical events, but avoids any assumption of causal mind-body connection,
       direct or indirect. Psychophysical parallelism eschews interactionism, stating
       that mental and physical could not possibly affect one another, and also rejects
       occasionalism and dual-aspect theory on the grounds that no third entity,
(15)     including a transcendent intelligence,  could be responsible for such vastly
       different effects. Parallelists accept only pure correlations, not causation,
       between mental and physical events. [br] According to the passage, which of the following events is most analogous to the relationship between thought and event articulated by psychophysical parallelism?
选项 A、A man looks in a mirror and, as a result, of the effect of cognition, sees his own reflections.
B、One thought in a sentient entity leads, by virtue of the stream of consciousness, to another thought.
C、A match is struck, and through the effects of a physical law, it ignites into flame.
D、Every time a pingpong ball is bounced, a tree falls, but through no causal relationship.
E、A human being makes a mental judgment based on physical phenomena he has observed.
答案 D
解析
