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: There is strong evidence that readiness to change and confidence, especially before treatment, are unrelated. Choices: 1. There is no correlation between confidence and preparedness to change. 2. Patients who are ready to change are more confident. 3. Patients who are more ready to change before treatment tend to benefit from the treatment.
