ARGUMENT
1. When Stanley Park first opened, it was the largest, most heavily used public park in town. It is still the largest park, but it is no longer heavily used. Video cameras mounted in the park's parking lots last month revealed the park's drop in popularity: the recordings showed an average of only 50 cars per day. In contrast, tiny Carlton Park in the heart of the business district is visited by more than 150 people on a typical weekday. An obvious difference is that Carlton Park, unlike Stanley Park, provides ample seating. Thus, if Stanley Park is ever to be as popular with our citizens as Carlton Park, the town will obviously need to provide more benches, thereby converting some of the unused open areas into spaces suitable for socializing.
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.
分析:第一,上个月的监控视频表明S公园每天平均停车仅50辆, 说明受欢迎程度下降。但只看停车数量不能证明是公园的问题,还可能是上个月天气恶劣,大家都不怎么出门。就算不是其他原因,也可能是大家不开车来公园,住的近的人可能是步行前往,或者出于环保而选择公共交通,不能只看车的数量就说是公园没有魅力了,不受欢迎了。
第二,C公园工作日就有150人来访,但是不能从这个就推出C公园比S公园更受欢迎。首先这两个公园的位置就是不一样的,比如文中写C是在商业中心,可能本身商业中心的人就更多,大家逛街累了顺便来公园一下。
第三,50辆车和150人也不能对比,50辆车里可能装着比150更多的人数。
第四,就算S公园的受欢迎程度确实下降了,但没有理由说S提供更多的椅子,大家就会来。椅子和受欢迎程度不成比例,也许大家是因为这个S公园环境不好而不愿意来,加了椅子也不会让环境变好,所以这种解决方法值得商榷。
2. The following appeared in a memo from the vice president of a food distribution company with food storage warehouses in several cities.
"Recently, we signed a contract with the Fly-Away Pest Control Company to provide pest control services at our fast-food warehouse in Palm City, but last month we discovered that over $20,000 worth of food there had been destroyed by pest damage. Meanwhile, the Buzzoff Pest Control Company, which we have used for many years, continued to service our warehouse in Wintervale, and last month only $10,000 worth of the food stored there had been destroyed by pest damage. Even though the price charged by Fly-Away is considerably lower, our best means of saving money is to return to Buzzoff for all our pest control services."
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.
