题目题材:交通运输
GRE argument 89题目:
The following appeared in a newspaper published in the state of Celera.
"Speed limits on our state's highways should be eliminated(5) in order to increase our state's prosperity. Because greater speed(1) means more efficient travel, commercial deliveries will be faster(2,3), increasing business profits. Elimination of speed limits will also make driving more attractive to motorists(4), so that more people will use the highways, providing more highway toll revenues for the state. At the same time, safety on our highways will not be affected: daytime(8) speed limits were eliminated last year in the western states(6) of our country, and no significant increase(7) in the number of accidents in these states has been reported."
提纲:
(1)Elimination of speed limits does not necessarily guarantee greater speed.
(2)The author fails to inform us how many travelers and commercial deliveries are using highways, thus we cannot evaluate to what extent the elimination of speed limit would increase our state’s prosperity.
(3)The author fails to inform us what percentage does high way driving make up in the total driving mileage of travelers and commercial deliveries.
(4)The assumption that elimination of speed limit will necessarily attract more motorists is unfounded.
(5)The author fails to consider the negative effects of eliminating speed limit.
(6)The situation of highways in western states and in Celera may not be comparable.
(7)The fact that the number of accidents has not increased significantly does not indicate that safety would not be affected.
(8)The fact that eliminating daytime speed limits caused no negative effects on safety does not indicate that safety will be guaranteed if night speed limits are also eliminated.
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。
