厅应该将这种节约开销的方式推广到美国东南部以及东北部的所有餐厅。 130)

The following memorandum is from the business manager of Happy Pancake House restaurants.

\southwestern United States.Only about 2 percent of customers have filed a formal complaint,indicating that an average of 98 people out of 100 are happy with the

change.Furthermore,many servers have reported that a number of customers who ask for butter do not complain when they are given margarine instead.Clearly,either these customers cannot distinguish butter from margarine or they use the term'butter'to refer to either butter or

margarine.Thus,to avoid the expense of purchasing butter,the Happy Pancake House should extend this cost-saving change to its restaurants throughout the rest of the country.\

Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the

argument.Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.

在整个美国西南部的所有Hp餐厅都采用人造黄油替代了天然黄油。只有2%的顾客投诉,这意味着100人中有98人对于这次改变都是愉悦的。另外,很多服务生报告说很多投诉要天然黄油的顾客在被给了人造黄油以后便没有了投诉。很明显,要么是这些顾客无法辨清人造或天然黄油,要么是他们用天然黄油来指代人造或天然黄油。因此,为了避免购买天然黄油的花销并且提升利润率,Hp餐厅应该将这种节约开销的方式推广到美国东南部以及东北部的所有餐厅。 131)

Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the prediction and the argument on which it is based are reasonable.Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the prediction.

In surveys Mason City residents rank water sports(swimming,boating,and fishing)among their favorite recreational activities.The Mason River flowing through the city is rarely used for these pursuits,however,and the city park department devotes little of its budget to maintaining riverside recreational facilities.For years there have been complaints from residents about the quality of the river's water and the river's smell.In response,the state has recently announced plans to clean up Mason River.Use of the river for water sports is,therefore,sure to increase.The city government should for that reason devote more money in this year's budget to riverside recreational facilities.

调查显示m市的老百姓把水上运动(游泳,划船及垂钓)作为最受欢迎的娱乐活动。贯穿m市的M河很少被用于水上运动,然而城市公园部门很少投入资金去维护沿河的活动设施。这么多年居民们一直投诉河水的质量及味道。为了回应这一投诉,当局最近宣布了清理M河的计划,因此M河的水上活动使用将会增加。所以市政府应该增加对河岸活动设施的资金投入。

The following appeared in a memorandum from the manager of WWAC radio station.

\its current rock-music format.The decline has occurred despite population growth in our listening area,but that growth has resulted mainly from people moving here after their retirement.We must make listeners of these new residents.We could switch to a music format tailored to their tastes,but a continuing decline in local sales of recorded music suggests limited interest in music.Instead we should change to a news and talk format,a form of radio that is increasingly popular in our area.\

Write a response in which you discuss what specific evidence is needed to evaluate the argument and explain how the evidence would weaken or strengthen the argument.

为了扭转观众流失的局面,WWAC的老板们决定必须要摒弃目前的摇滚乐风格。尽管我们广播区域内人口增加,收听人数依然下降。但增加的人口主要是一些退休后移居本地的。我们必须要抓住这些新的听众,我们可以转变音乐风格来迎合他们,但最近本地音乐销量的持续走低表明他们对音乐没什么兴趣。所以,我们可以变为新闻谈话类的形式来提升我们电台在本地的人气。 19)

Two years ago,radio station WCQP in Rockville decided to increase the number of call-in advice programs that it broadcast;since that time,its share of the radio audience in the Rockville listening area has increased significantly.Given WCQP's recent success with call-in advice

programming,and citing a nationwide survey indicating that many radio listeners are quite interested in such programs,the station manager of KICK in Medway recommends that KICK

include more call-in advice programs in an attempt to gain a larger audience share in its listening area.

Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the recommendation and the argument on which it is based are reasonable.Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the recommendation.

两年前,R地区的WCQP电台决定增加在其广播节目的电话参与节目。此后,其在R地区的听众覆盖率急剧增加。鉴于WCQP这种措施的成功,同时也根据一项全国范围的调查显示很多的观众比较喜欢这样的电话参与节目,M地区的Kick电台的经理建议Kick也应该增加类似的电话参与节目以来扩大在其地区的听众占有率。 93)

\been declining,even though the population in our listening area has been growing.The population growth has resulted mainly from people moving to our area after their retirement,and we must make listeners of these new residents.But they seem to have limited interest in music:several local stores selling recorded music have recently closed.Therefore,just changing to another kind of music is not going to increase our audience.Instead,we should adopt a news-and-talk format,a form of radio that is increasingly popular in our area.\

The following appeared in a memorandum from the general manager of KNOW radio station.

\music to a continuous news format.Consider,for example,that the number of people in our

listening area over fifty years of age has increased dramatically,while our total number of listeners has declined.Also,music stores in our area report decreased sales of recorded

music.Finally,continuous news stations in neighboring cities have been very successful.The switch from rock-and-roll music to 24-hour news will attract older listeners and secure KNOW radio's future.\

Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the

argument.Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.

若干因素表明KNOW电台应该把它的节目从摇滚乐转成连续的新闻节目。举例来说,我们覆盖范围内的老年人数量显著增加,而总的听众数量最近减少了。而且,我们地区音像店中音乐的销量下降。最后,邻近城市的连续新闻节目非常成功。从摇滚乐转型到24小时新闻节目将会吸引更多的老年听众并将会保障KNOW电台的未来。 110)

\less time to weather and local news.During this period,most of the complaints received from viewers were concerned with our station's coverage of weather and local news.In addition,local businesses that used to advertise during our late-night news program have canceled their

advertising contracts with us.Therefore,in order to attract more viewers to our news programs and to avoid losing any further advertising revenues,we should expand our coverage of weather and local news on all our news programs.\

去年,我们的深夜新闻节目投入了更多的时间播放全国新闻,较少的时间播放天气预报和地方新闻。在同一时期,我们从观众那里获得的投诉大部分是关于电视台对于天气和地方新闻的播放的。而且,若干曾经在我们深夜新闻节目播放广告的地方企业刚刚取消了和我们的广告契约。因此,为吸引更多的电视观众观看我们的新闻节目并避免失去未来的广告收入,我们应该在我们所有的新闻节目中增加天气和地方新闻的播报。 20)

According to a recent report,cheating among college and university students is on the

rise.However,Groveton College has successfully reduced student cheating by adopting an honor code,which calls for students to agree not to cheat in their academic endeavors and to notify a faculty member if they suspect that others have cheated.Groveton's honor code replaced a system in which teachers closely monitored students;under that system,teachers reported an average of thirty cases of cheating per year.In the first year the honor code was in place,students reported twenty-one cases of cheating;five years later,this figure had dropped to fourteen.Moreover,in a recent survey,a majority of Groveton students said that they would be less likely to cheat with an honor code in place than without.Thus,all colleges and universities should adopt honor codes similar to Groveton's in order to decrease cheating among students.

Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the recommendation and the argument on which it is based are reasonable.Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the recommendation.

通过最近一次报告,大学作弊现象显著增加。然而G大学却通过采取诚信制度的方式使该校学生作弊现象减少。该制度要求同学同意在学业中不作弊,并且但他们怀疑别人作弊是告知老师。G大学的诚信制度取代了原有的老师严密监管的老体制,在老体制中平均每年有30起作弊被上报。而在实施新制度后的第一年,学生上报了21起。五年后,这一数字更是下降到14起。另外,最近一项调查显示,G大学绝大多数学生表示有了诚信制度以后比以前更不可能作弊了。因此,所有的大学都应该采取与G大学类似的诚信制度来降低学生作弊现象。 119)

Evidence suggests that academic honor codes,which call for students to agree not to cheat in their academic endeavors and to notify a faculty member if they suspect that others have cheated,are far more successful than are other methods at deterring cheating among students at colleges and universities.Several years ago,Groveton College adopted such a code and discontinued its

old-fashioned system in which teachers closely monitored students.Under the old system,teachers reported an average of thirty cases of cheating per year.In the first year the honor code was in place,students reported twenty-one cases of cheating;five years later,this figure had dropped to fourteen.Moreover,in a recent survey,a majority of Groveton students said that they would be less likely to cheat with an honor code in place than without.

Write a response in which you discuss one or more alternative explanations that could rival the proposed explanation and explain how your explanation(s)can plausibly account for the facts presented in the argument.
