AAA1 终于整理出模版 - ChaseDream

下午总算整出个模版，抽个题写一下，不幸发现不是偶整理的典型的假性因果、错误类比和调查错误，还是写了一下，模版勉强套的上。感觉开头结尾都是废话，是不是一定要这样写呢？

In this argument, the author suggests replacing decorative plants on the Main Street with artificial plants in order to save money. This conclusion is built on the assumption that to solve the problem of wilted plants, the city should either contract for more frequent watering or plant artificial flowers. In addition, the author points out that turning to artificial flowers can save money in the long term. Public support is also cited as a reason to make the switch. Plausible at first sight, this argument actually rests on some partially interpreted evidence and a series of unsubstantiated assumptions. A careful examination as below would reveal how untenable the arguer’s claim is.

In face of the problem, the author unfairly presents us with a false dilemma: he asserts that the city should either contract for two waterings a week or plant artificial flowers. However, this is not necessarily the case. The author fails to consider and rule out other factors that might account for the wilting of the flowers. For example, perhaps the weather was abnormally scorching last summer, resulting in the withering of the plants. Yet there is no indication that this kind of weather will continue this year. Consequently, even without any measures taken, the plants can still live well this year. Or perhaps lack of watering is not the reason for the plants to wilt. They may have died of diseases caused by certain pests. In that case, spraying pesticides to the soil might turn out to be a better solution.

Another dubious assertion the author makes in support of planting artificial flowers is that replacing real plants with artificial ones will save money in the long run despite the high initial costs. However, the credibility of such an assertion has yet to be established, especially when the author fails to mention the subsequent costs of maintaining. One obvious rebuttal to the authors’ reasoning is that these artificial flowers might fade in color and thus have to be replaced in merely one year. It’s also likely that hiding cleaners to clean the dust of plastic flowers demands an exorbitant sum of money. In either case, the validity of the assertion made by the author is put into question.

Moreover, the survey result that the author cites to demonstrate public support hardly suffices to buttress this claim. For one thing, no information is given as to how broad the survey was and exactly how the survey was conducted. Therefore, it is hard to assess the reliability of the survey result. Moreover, since the survey is limited only to readers of a certain magazine, we have good reason to doubt whether the survey is representative enough to reflect the general attitude of all the citizens as a whole. For another, even if we accept the result, still the claim is questionable, since the survey only shows that the public find the city wasting money. This fact alone does no necessarily mean that the citizens consider real flowers a waste of money. Nor does it warrant the assumption that they take artificial planting as an economical alternative way.

To sum up, it is imprudent for the author to suggest planting artificial plants solely on the basis of the evidence presented. To make his argument more convincing, the author would have to explore the real reason for the withering of the plants and thus take into consideration other possible methods. Furthermore, the author should provide additional evidence to demonstrate that employing artificial planting is in fact a more economical way and that the public are genuinely in support of the suggestion.

这个是什么意思呢？

exorbitant sum of money. In either case, the validity of the assertion made by the author is put into question.

这个是不是有点不大对头呢？

之前刚刚用过啊换一个吧，What is more?

写的很好哦。我觉得你的模版应该是用到了呀。你的第一和第三个例子不是假性因果和调查错误吗？或者我对你模版名称的理解有错误？其实写作功力这么好没有必要把模版生搬硬套的，只要注意八股的模式和起承转合就好了。真的很不错。这次其实字也不大啊，是我的电脑还是你的电脑不大对劲？

多谢judy姐姐的指点。我看前辈们的模版看的很羡慕，虽然废话居多，但句子很漂亮，现写很难写出来。不过用起来也的确有点麻烦。开头段写了好长，我觉得都是废话，下面的关键内容都没时间写了。

在偶机器上用PP3比较搞笑，每次写到最后一行它不自动换行，敲着敲着就看不到字在动了，每写三四行就要调整一次，真faint!

今天8月1号，昨日雄心壮志，把师姐的作息计划贴到excel里，打算好好执行。结果今早起来发烧了，叹......刚放假就感冒一周多，只剩二十天复习。当时安慰自己说至少要考试时不会再病了。结果.......

嘻嘻~~pp3都是那样的...克服以下困难吧~~想着米国人的软件比较傻

hiahia偶可不见得是姐姐哦，fish的学妹哦难怪一上手就这么好。

那个exactly好象没什么问题，就是读的时候觉得有点别扭呵呵或者你再看看？
