今天的句子：
If I had to single out a particular bias as the most pervasive and damaging, it would probably be confirmation bias. That’s the effect that leads us to look for evidence confirming what we already think or suspect, to view facts and ideas we encounter as further confirmation, and to discount or ignore any piece of evidence that seems to support an alternate view. Confirmation bias shows up most blatantly in our current political divide, where each side seems unable to allow that the other side is right about anything. Confirmation bias plays out in lots of other circumstances, sometimes with terrible consequences.

词汇突破：

作者为何在这么多认知偏差中把“证实偏差”提出来讲？
A． it leads us to ignore opposing views
B． it shows up conspicuously in politics
C． it is bad for reaching logical decisions
D． it is the most widespread and harmful
原文中的第一句的前半句，我们看到“如果必须找出一个最普遍、破坏性最强的特定偏见的话”，反过来说也就是这个偏差因为是最普遍、最有破坏性的，所以被找出来了。答案是D。
问作者为什么提这件事？
=这件事的特征是什么？尤其是最大的特征是什么、
尤其题干还有mostly!
所以D是**答案！
