ARGUMENT部份
<NA15>The following appeared in a memo from a public health official.
“A recent international study shows that 7,000 children who brushed their teeth with a toothpaste containing altide had 40 percent fewer cavities than 7,000 other children who did not use a toothpaste with this ingredient. Furthermore, altide occurs naturally in the water from springs on the
springs on Mandiba.”

<NA16>The following appeared in an article from a health magazine.
“In a yearlong clinical trial of Mi-Quell, a new medicine for treating migraine headaches, researchers observed no significant side effects during the first five months. After six months, however, 20 percent of the subjects in the clinical trial began to report dizziness. Furthermore, during the final six months of the clinical trial, 43 of the subjects fell at least once and 18 were involved in automobile accidents. Such data indicate that Mi-Quell should be used to treat migraine headaches for up to six months, but after that time period doctors should prescribe another medicine.”

<NA17>The following appeared in a memo from the budget planner of the city of
“After a campaign to promote recycling of metal, paper, plastics, and glass, the city collected twice as much of these recyclable materials from local homes last year as during the previous year. When the city sold these materials, the major buyer paid 30 percent more per pound for recycled aluminum and certain grades of paper. Within a few months the city also plans to annex and collect recyclable materials from a new housing area containing over 4,000 households. Thus, by collecting larger amounts of recyclable materials and selling them at higher prices, the city’s recycling program should soon become profitable.”

<NA20>The following appeared in a budget proposal for the country of Salutopia.
“Over the past 20 years the birth rate in Salutopia has declined. During that same period, however, the number of physicians practicing in Salutopia has steadily increased, and the average number of patients treated by each physician has decreased by 30 percent. Meanwhile, average life expectancy in Salutopia has risen to 71 years, and the mortality rate fell significantly last year. Since such data indicate dramatic improvements in public health and a more than adequate supply of physicians in Salutopia, the national medical college need not
expand and can perhaps even reduce its size.”

<NA23>The following appeared in a memo from a vice president of Omni Industries.
“Last month’s reports from Omni’s top executives indicate that they spent more than 20 percent of their company travel time waiting in airports. Meanwhile, during the past year Hermes Airlines had twice as many on-time flights as any other airline. To avoid the irritation of excessive waiting, Omni should use Hermes Airlines for its company travel. Such a change should increase company profits by using employee time more productively and improving morale.”

<NA24>The following is taken from Townsville Residential Carpet Cleaning’s business plan.
“Homes built in this country last year were an average of 20 percent larger than those built just 10 years ago. At the same time, carpet manufacturers had greater overall profits than in any previous year. To meet the demand for home carpet-cleaning services and improve our own profitability, we should take out a loan to buy an additional truck for our fleet.”
Discuss how well reasoned . . . etc.
<NA25>The following appeared in a memo from the manager of Smart Step, a retail shoe store.
“The advertising strategy of Legacy Car Dealers has always been to target first-time buyers who may then become loyal repeat customers. Using this strategy, Legacy has sold more cars than any other local dealer during the past 50 years, and its owners are quite wealthy. Thus, to insure steadily increasing sales in future years, Smart Step should direct its current advertising to a youthful audience. Furthermore, a good choice to carry out this advertising campaign is the Hang-10 agency, which has a young creative staff and has become famous for its memorable tunes in advertisements on radio.”

<NA26>The following is from a proposal made by a government official in the country of Cortin.
“More than half of Cortin’s inhabitants live near the seacoast, as is also the case in the country of Blandis. To solve the problem of ocean pollution along the Blandis seacoast, the government of Blandis recently purchased the X-2000, a new machine that identifies specific pollutants in seawater. In the year since the X-2000 was purchased, a substantial decrease in ocean pollution has been measured at various locations along the coast of

<NA29>The following editorial appeared in the sports section of the Winetta Daily News.
“Because the Winetta Women’s Biking Team lost most of its races this year, the team coaches need to improve team members’ fitness by following the example of the Spandia Women’s Biking Team. After five straight years of losing more races than it won, the Spandia team signed up for the ‘Train to Win’ workout program and, only six months later, started winning more of its races. To make sure that Winetta Women’s Biking Team wins more races next year, the coaches should incorporate ‘Train to Win’ into the team’s fitness program.”

<NA30>The following appeared in a memorandum from the president of Didactica, a company that publishes textbooks.
“We have just taken an important step toward promoting our textbooks more effectively. Didactica has signed a contract with MousePrints, Inc., a company that supplies advertising-sponsored mousepads to schools free of charge. Each mousepad is printed with four ageappropriate, education-related ads that include Web site addresses, and since the mousepads are placed next to computers in classrooms and computer labs, the users of the computers are likely to visit Didactica’s Website. This method of familiarizing students and teachers with our company will help us increase our sales revenues and our share of the textbook market.”

<NA31>The following appeared in a plan written by the business manager of a daily newspaper called The Smallville Bulletin.
“Last year nationwide revenues from classified ads posted on the Internet rose 50 percent, but our revenues from daily and weekend classified ads for autos, jobs, and homes rose only 5 percent—the smallest rise in the past five years. The message is clear: we at The Smallville Bulletin can expect that within the next five years, revenues from our classified ads section will decline steeply. Since most of our revenues will therefore come from ads placed in the other sections of our newspaper, we can best ensure the survival of The Smallville Bulletin by printing only one classified ads section per week and by creating new sections on a different set of consumer-related topics such as fashion, home decor, and technology.”

<NA32>The following appeared in a business plan written by the manager of the Parker Hotel.
“Currently the Parker Hotel’s restaurant has a certificate of merit awarded by Bacchus, a well-known magazine for wine enthusiasts, but such certificates mean little because hundreds of other restaurants around the world also have them. To enhance our restaurant’s reputation and profitability, we should invest a million dollars in our wine inventory so that we will have a good chance of winning Bacchus’ highest award—the Vin Noble Prize—and subsequently being featured in the magazine. We would not have to keep spending large sums to maintain a comparable wine inventory, because the magazine’s inspectors do not

<NA33>The following appeared in a memorandum from the president of Sinecor, a computer-software company.
“The amount of money Sinecor spent last year on paid vacations and medical benefits increased by 30 percent. To offset these expenses, we should increase to 30 percent the portion of our employees who are temporary or contract workers. Since we will not have to give these workers vacation time or medical benefits, we will save money by employing them. In addition, our
