LUXIN CRITICAL REASONING LOOSE-LEAFING
5.Statement of a US copper mining company: Import quotas should be imposed on the less expensive copper mined outside the country to maintain price of copper in this country; otherwise, our companies will not be able to stay in business.

Response of a US copper wire manufacturer: US wire and cable manufacturers purchase about 70 percent of the copper mined in the US. If the copper prices we pay are not at the international level, our sales will drop, and then the demand for US copper will go down.

If the factual information presented by both companies is accurate, the best assessment of the logical relationship between the two arguments is that the wire manufacturer’s argument.
(A)is self-serving and irrelevant to the proposal of the mining company
(B)is circular, presupposing what it seeks to prove about the proposal of the mining company
(C)shows that the proposal of the mining company would have a negative effect on the mining company’s own business
(D)fails to give reason why the proposal if the mining company should not be put into effect to alleviate the concern of the mining company for staying in business
(E)establishes that even the mining company’s business will prosper if the mining company’s proposal is rejected
A:C)
5. Mr. Primm: If hospitals were private enterprises dependent on profits for their survival, there would be no teaching hospitals, because of the intrinsically high cost of running such hospitals
.
Ms. Nakai: I disagree. The medical challenges provided by teaching hospitals attract the very best physicians. This, in turn, enables those hospitals to concentrate on nonroutine cases.

Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen Ms. Nakai’s attempt to refute Mr. Primm’s claim?
(A)Doctors at teaching hospitals command high salaries
(B)Sophisticated nonroutine medical care commands a high price.
(C)Existing teaching hospitals derive some revenue from public subsidies
(D)The patient mortality rate at teaching hospitals is high.
(E)The modern trend among physicians is to become highly specialized
A:B)
6.A recent survey of all auto accident victims in Dole County found that, of the severely injured drivers and front-seat passengers, 80 percent were not wearing seat belts at the time of their accidents. This indicates that, by wearing seat belts, drivers and front-seat can greatly reduce their risk of being severely injured if they are in an auto accident.

The conclusion above is not properly drawn unless which of the following is true?
(A)Of all the drivers and front-seat passengers in the survey, more than 20 percent were wearing seat belts at the time of their accidents
(B)Considerably more than 20 percent of drivers and front-seat passengers in Dole County always wear seat belts when traveling by car.
(C)More drivers and front seat passengers in the survey than rear-seat passengers were very severely injured belts
(D)More than half of the drivers and front-seat passengers in the survey were not wearing seat time of their accidents
(E)Most of the auto accidents reported to police in Dole County do not involve any serious injury.
A:A)
