170	hypothesis: that attitude would stay negative very long premise: B: they did things for people, you know, for their communities, for their, uh, families, for their friends, where now, I'm not sure they really do. A: Yes. Yeah. Well, I think sometimes through groups and organizations, um, uh, when they asked the question I thought, well that sounds wonderful. And then, I wondered if people were unwilling but I think even if you went in with a negative attitude I don't think it would stay negative very long.	contradiction
23	hypothesis: she couldn't lie in bed with her clothes on premise: He's weird enough to have undressed me without thinking, according to some mad notion of the ``proper'' thing to do. Perhaps he thought I couldn't lie in bed with my clothes on.	contradiction

25	hypothesis: he doesn't want to drop dead without a proper and public recantation premise: But don't dilly-dally for too long. Once it's published we are all going to look a little risible if we have made no adjustments to what is after all known as being predominantly my own design of gallery. Also I am a bit older than the rest of you but you can perhaps understand that I don't want to drop dead without a proper and public recantation.	entailment
179	hypothesis: as many parents are college educated at the public school premise: B: Oh, I see. A: um, and I think I'm getting a better caliber of student at the private school, because I think their parents pay more, and I think the kids are a little bit more challenged, because their parents are probably college educated, where at the public school, I don't think as many parents are college educated,	contradiction
76	hypothesis: Abie was clever premise: ``Clever''. Klug means ``clever''. Would you say that Abie was clever?	neutral
102	hypothesis: it was useless to argue with McAllister premise: ``Oh, very well,'' he said wearily. He might have known that it was useless to argue with McAllister - her tongue was as long as her will was strong.	entailment
125	hypothesis: it is going to be that easy to come up with premise: B: And I've worked in the hospital for fifteen years and I've taken care of a few AIDS patients. A: Uh-huh. B: Uh, when they asked us did we want to, uh, keep it the same or, uh, spend more, spend less, uh, I think right now what they're spending is adequate. Uh, for my personal opinion.

65	hypothesis: people can have power over spirits premise: If there are spirits at work at the time, they come only from yourself, not from the fume of the incense. Why should spirits aid living beings? What arrogance is it that drives people to believe they can have power over them?	contradiction

187	hypothesis: they can really do something to change it premise: B: Uh, with regard uh, to jury trials. I really feel as though, uh, uh, whatever system has been used historically, in particular jurisdiction, you know, is really the only kinds of things that you can use. Because the jurisprudence is, you know, based uh, you know, on accumulated body of law. And if you have a situation where you change that body of law, then all of sudden they could start going back and digging up all these cases uh, that would be handled differently were they judged by today's standards. So I really don't think they can really do much of anything to change it.	contradiction
246	hypothesis: finance is a service industry premise: So who knows? In a generation or two some of the New Crowd may attain true respectability, perhaps to be displaced in turn by a later flock of unscrupulous raptors.

236	hypothesis: capital punishment would be a deterrent to future crimes premise: A: Yeah, I think that's what aggravates a lot of people, is somebody does get a life sentence in place of the death penalty, and they wind up back on the streets after five years or six years or like the kid on the news tonight out in Mesquite who was out in six months.. B: Uh-huh. Yeah, it's just our criminal system is just so, I guess, overloaded, but the problem is not so much with the prison system, you know, I mean, because the cops are out there doing their job enforcing the laws, and the prison system are just, you know, they're trying to cope with them, but, you know, the thing about capital punishment I, you know, a lot of people don't think it would be a deterrent, uh, to future crime,	contradiction
178	hypothesis: the kid was gone premise: A: Boy that's scary, isn't it. B: Oh, can you imagine, because it happens in the middle of the night, so you know, these parents didn't know the kid was gone until the kid is knocking on the door screaming, let me in.	entailment

61	hypothesis: the big Norwegian found Ward's accent at all easy premise: The big Norwegian shook his head, frowning. ``Jeg fonstAr ikke.'' I don't think he found Ward's accent at all easy and anyway like many foreigners he found it easier to speak English than to understand it.	contradiction
12	hypothesis: Jimmy was unprepared to show he had been shaken premise: ``You 've heard something like that before. Haven't you, Jimmy?''

68	hypothesis: they had no way of paying premise: But the horror of losing was as much to do with money as with pride. Biddy had never let them down, come without fail all through the bad weather, and now was giving Nails an intensive course on her own horse which - in terms of money - was worth another couple of hundred pounds. Yet surely she knew they had no way of paying should she demand it?	entailment
64	hypothesis: Tara was only the housekeeper premise: She swallowed hard, unsure if she had the nerve to go ahead. The memory of the pain in Tara's eyes last night decided her. Did he really expect her to believe that Tara was only the housekeeper?	contradiction

113	hypothesis: Patterson had a meeting with his door shut and nobody got fired premise: I spent just over an hour with Patterson which, I found out later, turned out to be another first. Time is money in the City and few people are worth an hour unless it's over lunch and only then if you're involved in a takeover bid. It was also I learned one of the few occasions anyone at PKB could remember that Patterson had a meeting with his door shut and nobody got fired.	entailment

74	hypothesis: resentment lay just under Peter's skin premise: Anna looked at Peter again and said to herself in a guilty whisper, ``Will he become even more difficult?''

Knowing this to be his likely mood when I brought in the tea yesterday afternoon, and being aware of his general propensity to talk with me in a bantering tone at such moments, it would certainly have been wiser not to have mentioned Miss Kenton at all.
