You will be given a definition of a task first, then some input of the task.
In this task, you're given a statement and three sentences as choices. Your job is to determine the neutral choice based on your inference from the statement and your commonsense knowledge. The neutral choice is a sentence that neither agrees nor disagrees with the statement. Indicate your answer as '1', '2', or '3', corresponding to the choice number of the selected sentence. If sentence X agrees with sentence Y, one's correctness follows from the other one. If sentence X disagrees with sentence Y, they can not be correct at the same time.

Statement: And can this be explained without resorting to the phrase dumbing down or alluding to the questions on that Who Wants a Big Bucket of Money quiz show being multiple choice about the Brady Bunch , not like in the old days, when quiz show questions were so hard that you had to cheat to win, and presidential candidates all spoke in full sentences, in iambic pentameter, in Latin, while wearing complicated wigs and fancy hats and several layers of underwear with fastenings so elaborate you had to be like a genius just to undress for one of your Naked Fireside Chats from the Aero White House, a giant dirigible moored to Zelda Fitzgerald. Choices: 1. Quiz show questions were considered by some to be so hard that cheating was necessary. 2. As life becomes easier and less challenges are presented the expectations of everything also lowers. 3. Everything has become harder then it was in the old days.
