2012gre作文大講堂:argument14

字號:

GRE寫作部分將重點考察考生有針對性地對具體考題做出反應的能力,而非要求考生堆砌泛泛的文字。具體說來,這些重點關注的能力包括:1、 清楚有效地闡明復雜觀點;2、 用貼切的事理和事例支撐觀點;3、考察/驗證他人論點及其相關論證;4、支撐一個有針對性的連貫的討論;5、控制標準書面英語的各個要素。寫作部分將聯(lián)合考察邏輯推理和分析寫作兩種技能,并且將加大力度引進那些需要考生做出有針對性的回應的考題,降低考生依賴事前準備(如背誦)的材料的可能性。
     題目:
    "A recent study rating 300 male and female Mentian advertising executives according to the average number of hours they sleep per night showed an association between the amount of sleep the executives need and the success of their firms. Of the advertising firms studied, those whose executives reported needing no more than 6 hours of sleep per night had higher profit margins and faster growth. These results suggest that if a business wants to prosper, it should hire only people who need less than 6 hours of sleep per night."
    Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the argument. Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.
    中文翻譯:
    最近一項根據(jù)每天平均睡眠時間,對300 名m 市廣告公司男女高管調(diào)查顯示出了高管們所需的睡眠時間與他們公司成功與否的關聯(lián)。根據(jù)對這些廣告公司的研究,那些公司高管報告說每天睡眠不足6 小時的公司利潤更高并且發(fā)展更快。這些結(jié)果表明如果公司想蓬勃發(fā)展,他們就必須只雇傭那些每天睡眠不足6 小時的管理人員。
    寫一篇回應,在其中檢視文章的論證中述及和/或未明確述及的假設,務請解釋文章的論證是如何依賴于這些假設的,并指出如果這些假設不成立會對文章的論證帶來何種影響。
