答案 Necessity of Reason and Logic The ability of a student to think clearly using reasoning and logical thinking is of paramount importance in order to ensure his or her success as an individual after graduation from a univer-sity. To be able to look at a situation and use logic and reason to analyze the facts and develop an opinion or solution is to have a solid foundation for success in all aspects of life. Exploring one’s emotions is important, but it is outside of the realm of what can be learned in a university classroom. Emotional self-exploration is best done outside of a classroom situation, although there may be some opportunities for students in the classroom to learn a methodology for doing so. The ability to survive and thrive in a society is based on the assumption that human beings act according to reason and logic. From a very early age, most people are taught that certain actions will bring about certain reactions and that by using logic you can figure out what the response will be in most situations. Reasoning is also developed early on, although sometimes it is difficult to explain reasoning to a two-year-old child. Humans are probably born with a desire for reason and logic, as demonstrated by almost any child’s incessant asking of the question "Why?". As a result, the basic framework of most forms of human society requires that a person must act according to the demands of reason and logic. Rules of law are based on the concept that individuals respond to rules based on reasoning and logic. The ability to think according to logic and reason is so imperative that it is essential that it be taught to university students at even the highest levels. What if law schools and medical schools decided that it was more important to allow students to explore their own emotions at the expense of learning the latest laws or medical techniques? One of the main problems with emphasizing to students the importance of exploring one’s own emotions is that it creates a "me first" attitude towards their studies. Certainly a degree of self-introspection is necessary to deal with society, but to put emphasis on this above all else is to inculcate in the student the idea that he or she is more important than others, and that what he or she thinks matters a great deal more than it probably does in reality. Too much emotional self-exploration could create individuals who see their emotions as more important than what they contribute to society, which would damage that society as a whole.
解析     文章开篇即明确提出了逻辑思维能力的重要性，又和首段末尾提出情感探索不应属于教室里传授的内容。第二、三段由浅入深，从个人到社会逐层分析，指出逻辑与理性不仅是个人赖以生存的基石，更是整个社会秩序与法制不可或缺的，符合分论点按照重要性由小到大的排列顺序。结尾段提出如果没有逻辑与理性，可能会造成什么样的问题，从反面论证了逻辑与理性的重要意义，正反面论证结合，显得更加滴水不漏。
