22． “A recent review of the West Cambria volunteer ambulance service revealed a longer average response time to accidents than was reported by a commercial ambulance squad located in East Cambria. In order to provide better patient care for accident victims and to raise revenue for our town by collecting service fees for ambulance use, we should disband our volunteer service and hire a commercial ambulance service.” (pool第32题)
错误：1。Based on false anology.东西部不能就这么简单的进行类比，东西部自身就存在着差异。比如路面状况，可能西部志愿者服务态度好，车辆更好。。。
      2． Gratuitous assumption. 不能仅仅把反应时间当作唯一衡量质量好坏的标准，其实还有很多因素，比如服务态度，人员专业水平，设备。。。
PS． 除非服务的时候要收取高额的费用以及事故频繁发生，不然不会增加总收入的。。。

23． A survey shows that our consumers are more cared about eating healthier. One way to eat healthy is to eat organic food, which is free of fertilizer and pesticide. Our city has no organic food store currently, so we can establish one in our city. We can open organic food store in our gyms so that we can expect that the profits of our gyms, which stayed the same for a year, would increase.
错误：1． 我们城市也许可以不用开设这类的商店，因为大家都去体育馆健身，更加健康，没必要专门吃这些。
      2． Survey is doubtful，不知道多少人更加关注吃的健康。
3。 如果现在更多的人关注的是如何吃的健康，因此可能不会大量地去体育馆健身，所以在体育馆里开设有机食品商店不会增加体育馆的利润。无端的假设。没有证据证明这样做会增加体育馆利润。

24．“Now is the perfect time to buy a house in our city. Over the past five years, average home prices in our region have nearly doubled. But average stock prices in the national stock market have actually declined over the same period. So homeowners have seen an increase in value for their housing investment during the last five years that far exceeds what they could have made by investing in the stock market. Our city’s residents can surely achieve a similar profit over the next five years. Furthermore, if residents invest in a home, they can enjoy the use of the home while its value increases, whereas money invested in stocks would not contribute to their quality of life in the same way that owning a home would. Therefore, all the residents of our city should invest their money in a home.”
错误：1。Our city’s residents can surely achieve a similar profit over the next five years.过去5年不代表现在及将来的情况。无端的假设。
      2．最后一句话没有证据，无端的假设。

25．“After opening the new swimming pool early last summer, Take Heart saw a 12 percent increase in the use of the center by members. Therefore, in order to increase the number of our members and thus our revenues, which depend on membership fees, we should continue to add new recreational facilities in subsequent years: for example, a multipurpose game room, a tennis court, and a miniature golf course. Being the only center in the area offering this range of activities would give us a competitive advantage in the health and recreation market.” (pool No.108)
错误：1。作者assumes 会员使用量增加就代表会员人数增加，其实不然，可能是同一个会员使用了很多次。。。使得使用量增加，但会员人数并未增加。这样会员费及总收入还是没什么变化。
      2．没有证据证明陆续开设那些娱乐设施会有效。
      3． 没有证据证明这个中心是该地唯一一个提供这些多样化活动的中心。

26． “The Largo Piano Company has long been known for producing carefully handcrafted, expensive pianos used by leading concert pianists. During the past few years, however, our revenues have declined; meanwhile, the Allegro Musical Instrument Company introduced a line of inexpensive digital pianos and then saw its revenues increase. In order to increase Largo’s sales and in fact outsell Allegro, we should introduce a line of digital pianosin a variety of price ranges. Our digital pianos would be likely to find instant acceptance with customers, since they would be associated with the prestigious Largo name.”
错误:1.收入下降说不定有其他原因，比如钢琴的质量、服务人员的态度等等，都应该考虑并排除。
     2．错误的类比。两家公司所经营的内容是有差别的。顾客的忠诚度及认可度也不一样。
     3． 最后一句话缺少证据，证据不足。

27． “Corporations should look to the city of Helios when seeking new business opportunities or a new location. Even in the recent recession, Helios’s unemployment rate was lower than the regional average. It is the industrial center of the region, and historically it has provided more than its share of the region’s manufacturing jobs. In addition, Helios is attempting to expand its economic base by attracting companies that focus on research and development of innovative technologies.”
错误：1。 失业率低说明大家基本上都有稳定的工作，那他们就不会出来找工作。如果在那里建厂的话，也吸引不到多少本地的劳动力，只有吸引从外地来的。因此，这家想要发展的新公司也不会很快得到发展，机遇也不大。
       2． 这个地方是个工业中心，该公司想要发展和研究科技类的产业的话，可能不太适合，当地的人大多都是专业于工业，而对科技不敏感，人才少。想要发展这类公司的基础薄弱，区位因素加人的因素。

28． “On average, 9 out of every 1,000 passengers who traveled on Avia Airlines last year filed a complaint about our baggage-handling procedures. This means that although some 1 percent of our passengers were unhappy with those procedures, the overwhelming majority were quite satisfied with them; thus it would appear that a review of the procedures is not important to our goal of maintaining or increasing the number of Avia’s passengers.” (pool NO.39)
错误：1。 Gratuitous assumption.并没有说没有抱怨的人都是满意的，说不定有些人不满意却没时间正式投诉，或有些人持中立态度no option。没有证据证明其他人的满意度。
       2． 缺乏数据。缺少该航空部门的其他航班flights的抱怨人数及相关竞争者的一些数据。相比较，若其他航班或相关竞争者中没有出现抱怨的，那这仅仅的百分之一也是很significant了，要引起注意并review。

29． “Our factory in Cookville is our most advanced and efficient. It is capable of producing ten drill bits for each dollar of production costs, whereas none of our other factories can produce more than seven drill bits per dollar of production costs. Therefore, we can reduce our overall drill bit production costs by devoting the Cookville factory entirely to drill bit production. Since reducing the production costs of individual machine parts is the only way to achieve our larger goal of reducing our overall production costs, dedicating the Cookville factory entirely to drill bit production and shifting all other machine part production to our other factories will help us to attain that larger goal.” (pool B6)
错误：1。Therefore, we can reduce our overall drill bit production costs by devoting the Cookville factory entirely to drill bit production.这句话证据不足，仅凭之前的那句生产量超过其他厂不能得出这样的结论。减少成本还可以通过其他方式，比如减少原材料的成本，运输成本，设备成本等。
      2．reducing the production costs of individual machine parts is the only way to achieve our larger goal of reducing our overall production costs。这句话没有根据，没有证据证明这是唯一的的减少成本的方法。

30．“Stronger laws are needed to protect new kinds of home-security systems from being copied and sold by imitators. With such protection, manufacturers will naturally invest in the development of new home-security products and production technologies. Without stronger laws, therefore, manufacturers will cut back on investment. From this will follow a corresponding decline not only in product quality and marketability, but also in production efficiency, and thus ultimately a loss of manufacturing jobs in the industry.”
First, there is no specific evidence to support to the HIS argument that without stronger protecting laws, the manufacture will cut back ON investment IN the product. So far, with the current lawS, the investors still /spend money on/PURCHASE/ the product and there is nothing to prove that they will stop doing that. Moreover, as an investor, usually you will usually consider a lot of factors(,) such as the command FOR the product in the market, AND the profit you will get from the product before making the decision(,) rather THAN looking at the protecting law of the product. In some caseS, the protecting law DOES HAVE some impact(,) but definitely it is not the dominatING factor.

Second, even if the manufacture DID cut back the fund, the argument that this will bring out a corresponding decline in product quality, product marketability and product efficiency is unconvincing. Normally, when the demand FOR a product decreaseS or the product already has its reputation on market, the investor can start getting benefit and stop funding for it(,) and still do not hurt its quality or efficiency, or cause A LOSS OF jobS in the product industry. Therefore, the assumption from the author that the lack of stronger protection for security systemS will have negative influenceS on the product itself and its market should be put inTO question

In conclusion, the author’s argument is not reasonable. The author should give evidence to prove that the investor will stop funding for home security systemS if the government does not issue a stronger protectiVE lawS(,) and the absence of such lawS will actually have A VERY bad effect on the product industry.
