Definition: 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.
Input: Statement: When this method produces a coherent, plausible story, the researcher can assert a relationship between cause and effect. Choices: 1. The researcher can show cause and effect when there is a plausible story produced. 2. The researcher still can't show cause and effect just because there is a plausible story produced. 3. The researcher can show cause and effect between saving and spending when there is a plausible story produced.
