GRE argument 124题目:
The following is a memo from the business manager of National Daily News.
"To expand the home delivery service of our national newspaper, we should concentrate on the state of Urba rather than on the state of Sylva(6). First, the population of Sylva is more widely dispersed, which would require us to spend more money to deliver our papers(1) in that area, resulting in less profit per customer(2). Second, a long-term study of television viewing habits(3) suggests that Sylvans prefer local to national news, since they spend twice as much time viewing local news programs as they do viewing national programs(4). Finally, because events in Urba receive more coverage in our newspaper than do events in Sylva, we can expect Urbans to be more interested in reading our newspaper(5)."
提纲:
(1)The manager ignores many other factors that may influence delivery costs, thus the cost we spend in Sylva would not necessarily be higher.
(2)The total amount of potential subscribers in Sylva may be significant, thus we could still have great profits there although the profit per customer might be low.
(3)The television viewing habits may not necessarily indicate people’s attitude toward newspapers.
(4)The amount of time spent on viewing news is not a good indication of whether people prefer local or national news.
(5)The fact that our newspaper covers more events in Urba does not necessarily guarantee that Urbans will be interested in our newspaper.
(6)The manager ignores the negative effects of putting our concentration on Urban instead of Sylva.
注:题目中括号里的数字表明这句话体现的是提纲中第几号缺陷。
