When Pinker says that the rules of English are productive, he means that: They allow us to produce novel sentences and utterances instead of always producing 'canned', preprogrammed strings.
That if we refuse to ascribe consciousness to a machine that passes the Turing test, then by the same token we must refuse to ascribe consciousness to humans other than ourselves. But that's absurd.
Searle argues that if someone committed to memory all the rules used in a Turing-test-passing algorithm, they would be able to pass a Turing test in Chinese despite understanding nothing. If a believer in the possibility of strong Artificial Intelligence were to insist that such a person did understand Chinese, the best response would be
A law of behavior is nonconsciously enforced by the person's being an embodied biological organism. Searle argues that his Chinese Room thought experiment demonstrates that.
Pinker objects to Wilkins' system on the grounds that it is overkill, and we will never need to refer to e.g. fish with an enmity to sheep. Which of the following would be the best response by Wilkins?
The conventionalist approach of Hermogenes is. A good account of how ordinary words get their meaning, but not so obviously a good account of how atomic mental symbols get their meaning, since it seems to invite a regress of meaners. A machine that doesn't pass the imitation game is.
Defeating an argument from a certain disability by showing that humans also miss what machines are destined to lack.

The cost of college textbooks has increased by over 200% in the last decade
A combination of the sales of used textbooks by university bookstores and the practice of "bundling" software/audio-video packages is responsible for the increasing costs of college textbooks
The advocate must establish the "workability" of her proposal. As the opponent, you have the strategic option of challenging this "workability" of her proposal. Which of the following are ways you might challenge workability?
The second stock issue: The details of the specific plan you are proposing
College students, already paying increased tuition and housing fees, go further into debt to pay for increasingly expensive text books
