gre argument 173题目:
The following is a memorandum issued by the publisher of a newsmagazine, Newsbeat, in the country of Dinn.
"Our poorest-selling magazine issues over the past three years were those that featured international news stories on their front covers(1). Over the same period, competing news-magazines have significantly decreased the number of cover stories that they devote to international news(2,3). Moreover, the cost of maintaining our foreign bureaus(4) to report on international news is increasing. Therefore, we should decrease our emphasis on international news(5) and refrain from displaying such stories on our magazine covers(6)."
提纲:
(1)The publisher fails to establish a causal relationship between featuring international news stories on magazines’ front covers and the poor sales of these issues.
(2)No information concerning the profits of Newsbeat and its competing news-magazines is provided, thus we cannot evaluate if decreasing the emphasis on international news is a wise strategy.
(3)The fact that the competing news-magazines have decreased their emphasis on international news might just give Newsbeat the advantage of being the only magazine covering international news.
(4)The publisher ignores other means to report on international news besides maintaining foreign bureaus.
(5)Granted that featuring international news stories on the front covers did cause problems, we cannot hastily generalize that the amount of international news should be decreased.
(6)The publisher ignores the negative effects of the proposed strategy.
