今天的专栏，我们来说一个和 Critical Thinking 有关的话题，就是“人们经常犯的
逻辑错误”。
是这样的，檩子在看国外孩子课程资料的时候，发现从小学五六年级起，很多学校
在Social Studies, Writing, Language Arts, Phylosophy （社会研究、写作、语言
、哲学）这些课上，都会提到一个概念，叫 Logical Fallacy - 老师会带学生梳理常
见的逻辑谬误，帮助学生培养缜密的思考习惯。
什么叫逻辑谬误？就是指一个人在论述中犯了推理错误，对人产生误导 (An error
in reasoning that obscures or misleads the audience)
曾有人说过：我们教育最大的缺失，是缺乏阅读、写作和逻辑训练；那么，怎样培
养孩子的逻辑能力？我觉得引导孩子去识别这些常见的逻辑谬误，就是一个很好的起点
...
下面我们来说说国外专家和老师总结的12种最常见逻辑谬误，比较适合跟小学五六
年级上下的孩子去讲讲 ~ 还有一些复杂一点的逻辑谬误，我们以后有机会再讲。

发帖数: 3497 | 3 明斯基时刻（英语：Minsky Moment）指在信贷周期或者商业周期中，资产价格的大幅
下跌。在长期的经济繁荣中，资产价格上涨会导致投机性的贷款增加，而过多投机所产
生的债务会造成投资者的现金流紧缺，即资产产生的现金流不足以支付债务需要的利息
。当债权人要求偿还债务时，深陷债务问题的投资者必须卖掉资产价格相对稳定的投资
物来维持现金流，然而此时已经没有交易对手方会支付如此高的资产价格。一系列的抛
售将导致资产价格进一步下跌，以及流动性紧张，并最终造成资产价格的崩溃。[1][2]
这个概念是由PIMCO的保罗·麦克里在1998年提出用来描述1998年俄罗斯金融危机，[2]
以海曼·明斯基名字命名。麦克里将2007-2010的金融危机的开始，即2007年8月视为
明斯基时刻，并称之后的危机是"反明斯基过程"，[3] 而也有人将之前2007年6月的两
个贝尔斯登基金的失败视为明斯基时刻的开始。
虽然海曼·明斯基被普遍认为是后凯恩斯学派[4]，但该理论与奥地利经济周期理论类
似[5]。

this year officials floated the idea of anointing President Xi Jinping as
the “core” of the Chinese Communist Party.
Though the description has been applied to every paramount leader apart from
Hu Jintao, Mr Xi’s immediate predecessor, it was controversial enough to
be quietly dropped.
But on October 27th, after a meeting of the party’s 350 or so highest

二月革命是群众的自发革命，惟其如此，它就一定只会是缘木求鱼的蠢动，其最大特点
是诉求与手段截然相 反。二月
革命之所以发生，并不是因为人民大众不堪沙皇的压迫剥削，而是因为一次世界大战与
既往所有的战争都不同，是全面

标 题: 耶鲁会不会改校名？
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Tue Feb 14 17:36:26 2017, 美东)
上周末，耶鲁校长发了个全校通告：Calhoun住宿学院正式改名。一下子把我看乐了。
Calhoun出身南卡，是耶鲁1804届毕业生，当过美国副总统、国务卿、战争部长等；
1931年被用来命名耶鲁新建的七个住宿学院之一。而Calhoun近年背运连连，是因为他
生前大力支持黑奴制，坚决反对废奴运动。前年，Calhoun的南卡家乡爆出黑人教堂枪
杀案，成为这个倒霉蛋的最后一根稻草：愤怒的耶鲁学生游行抗议、联名写信，要求学
校废除Calhoun这个学院名。
一波三折的是，经过从夏天到第二年春天的漫漫九个月讨论，去年四月校长发了个全校
通告，说Calhoun学院不改名；咱们要正视历史。立时舆论大哗，学生在学校教堂集会
