难易程度:★★★
题目题材:学校建设
gre argument 240题目:
The following appeared in a memo written by a dean at Buckingham College.
"To serve the housing needs of our students, Buckingham College should build a new dormitory(4). Buckingham's enrollment is growing and, based on current trends(1), should double over the next fifty years, thus making existing dormitories inadequate. Moreover, the average rent for an apartment in our town has increased(3) in recent years(2). Consequently, students will find it increasingly difficult to afford off-campus housing. Finally, an attractive new dormitory would make prospective students more likely to enroll at Buckingham(5,6)."
提纲:
(1)The dean assumes without justification that the trends of increasing enrollment will continue in the future.
(2)The dean unfairly assumes that the rent for off-campus apartment will continue to increase in the following years.
(3)We do not know if the average rent for off-campus apartment has increased to an extent that students cannot afford.
(4)The dean fails to illustrate that current dormitories in Buckingham could not meet students’ housing needs.
(5)A new dormitory would be neither sufficient nor necessary for attracting prospective students.
(6)The dean’s assumption that more prospective students will enroll at Buckingham conflicts the dean’s purpose of solving the housing problem.
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。
