  Argument看似题目量很大,但是如果把很多题目抽象成逻辑链接就题目中出错的逻辑类型来说,显得较为单一,很多题目犯共同在犯相同的逻辑错误。

  比如:

  Argument 题库的第 5 题:

  The following appeared in a letter to the editor of the Balmer Island Gazette.

  "On Balmer Island, where mopeds serve as a popular form of transportation, the population increases to 100,000 during the summer months. To reduce the number of accidents involving mopeds and pedestrians, the town council of Balmer Island should limit the number of mopeds rented by the island's moped rental companies from 50 per day to 25 per day during the summer season. By limiting the number of rentals, the town council will attain the 50 percent annual reduction in moped accidents that was achieved last year on the neighboring island of Seaville, when Seaville's town council enforced similar limits on moped rentals."

  下面这段文字出自写给 Balmer Island Gazette 杂志社编辑的一封信。

  在 Balmer Island,机动脚踏车是一种非常流行的交通工具。该岛夏季的人口达到了 100000 人。为减少由机动脚踏车和行人引发的事故,Balmer Island 市委打算在夏季把本岛机动脚踏车出租公司的机动脚踏车出租数量从每天 50 辆限制到每天 25 辆。通过限制出租数量,机动脚踏车事故数量将会减少 50%。去年邻近的 Seaville 岛采取了类似的措施后就达到了这样的效果。

  Argument 题库的第 7 题:

  The following is a recommendation from the Board of Directors of Monarch Books.

  "We recommend that Monarch Books open a café in its store. Monarch, having been in business at the same location for more than twenty years, has a large customer base because it is known for its wide selection of books on all subjects. Clearly, opening the café would attract more customers. Space could be made for the café by discontinuing the children's book section, which will probably become less popular given that the most recent national census indicated a significant decline in the percentage of the population under age ten. Opening a café will allow Monarch to attract more customers and better compete with Regal Books, which recently opened its own café."

  下面是一封来自 Board of Directors of Monarch Books 的建议书。

  我们建议 Monarch Books 在店内开一家咖啡馆。Monarch Books 在同一地点已经经营了 20 年,拥有了庞大的用户群,因为人们可以广泛选择所有科目的书籍。显然,开一家咖啡馆将会吸引更多的顾客。最近的一次全国人口普查的数据显示,低于 10 岁的人口所占的比重将大幅下降,儿童书籍将很有可能变得不那么畅销。所以应该撤销儿童书籍部分,腾出来的空间用来建咖啡馆。建咖啡馆将会使 Monarch 吸引更多的顾客并且更好地与最近刚开了咖啡馆的 Regal Books 竞争。
