A developer is trying to get a language model to explain its reasoning for a factual question. They append the instruction, 'Provide a comprehensive, multi-sentence breakdown of your inferential process.' Critique this approach and provide the classic, much simpler four-word phrase that is commonly used to trigger a step-by-step thought process without needing any examples.

A user wants a language model to solve a simple logic puzzle and see the model's reasoning process. Crucially, the user does not want to provide any examples of how to solve similar puzzles. The user's initial query is: 'If a red house is made of red bricks and a blue house is made of blue bricks, what is a green house made of?' Which of the following modified prompts best applies the simple, well-known technique for eliciting a step-by-step thought process without providing any examples?
