AA 某学校用了interactive computer instruction后辍学率低了，学生的表现也好了，所以建议以后的预算要对所有课程adopt interactive computer instruction
The following appeared as part of a newspaper editorial.
“Two years ago Nova High School began to use interactive computer instruction in three academic subjects. The school dropout rate declined immediately, and last year’s graduates have reported some impressive achievements in college. In future budgets the school board should use a greater portion of the available funds to buy more computers, and all schools in the district should adopt interactive computer instruction throughout the curriculum.”
Discuss how well reasoned... etc.
两年前Nova高中开始在3个科学科目中使用互动计算机指导。学校的退学率立刻下降，而且去年的毕业生在大学取得了一些很不错的成绩。在未来的预算中，校董事会应该在能得到的资金中拨出更大的一块用来购买更多的计算机。而且这一区的所有学校都应该在课程中采用互动计算机指导。
提纲：
1，        没有排除他因。很可能是学校出台的policy要求老师上课认真，学生更加勤奋导致的。同时发生不能说明因果。stricter discipline applied last year.
还有其他的比如加入新课引起学生的兴趣等等。counseling and training programs
2，        错误类比，其他的学校情况跟这个不一定相同。比如很可能是艺术类等文科院校，而这个是科学类的，所以不同。
3，        过去推将来，不对。很可能短暂的interest之后学生会失去兴趣。或者别的什么情况发生了变化。

AA: 过去，有graduate degree毕业于W 的JOB SEEKERS很难找到教大学生专业的工作~近年，这种人会比以往好找那样的工作~由于到上大学的年龄的人增多，而且JOB MARKET improve。。。。。。
The following appeared as part of an article in the education section of a Waymarsh City newspaper.
“Throughout the last two decades, those who earned graduate degrees found it very difficult to get jobs teaching their academic specialties at the college level. Those with graduate degrees from Waymarsh University had an especially hard time finding such jobs. But better times are coming in the next decade for all academic job seekers, including those from Waymarsh. Demographic trends indicate that an increasing number of people will be reaching college age over the next ten years; consequently, we can expect that the job market will improve dramatically for people seeking college-level teaching positions in their fields.”
Discuss how well reasoned... etc.
Waymarsh城日报教育版的一篇文章：
过去的20年内，研究生毕业生发现找到在大学教授他们的学术专长的工作是很困难的。那些从Waymarsh获得研究生学位的要找到这类工作尤其困难。但在下个10年，寻找学术工作的人（包括那些Waymarsh大学的）的好日子要来了。人口统计趋势显示达到上大学年龄的人将在未来10年增加。我们可预期对那些在他们的领域寻找大学教学工作的人来说，工作市场将显著增大。
提纲：
1.        适龄人口增加不一定上大学人数就一定增加
2.        就算上大学人数增加需要的大学老师也不一定增加
3.        就算需要的老师增加,waymarsh的就业也不见得会水涨船高.

1，        人口增加也不一定都上大学。很可能都选择了就业。
2，        even if we grant the preceding assumption上大学的人多了不一定需要更多老师，很可能大学通过增大一个班人数的方式，保持原有老师数；
3，        就算需要GRADUATED DEGREE的人，也不代表W也会benefit from this trend，缺少信息，它可能是一个质量不好的大学，学校不会从这里的人中挑选。foretold regarding the employability

一家广告公司的IT部分建议加大IT软硬件投资，能扩大公司的利润。
The following appeared in a memorandum from the information technology department of a major advertising firm:
“The more efficient a firm’s employees are, the more profitable that firm will be.  Improvements in a firm’s information technology hardware and software are a proven way to increase the efficiency of employees who do the majority of their work on computers.  Therefore, if our firm invests in the most powerful and advanced information technology available, employee productivity will be maximized.  This strategy ensures that every dollar spent on enhanced information technology will help to increase our firm’s profit margins.”
Discuss how well reasoned . . .etc.
1、        因果错误：The more efficient a firm’s employees are, the more profitable that firm will be . 公司效率高不仅与员工效率有关系，还与外界的市场环境，企业的经营状况有关。
2、        .错误假设，引进了新技术，员工的生产力就一定会提高，也有可能新技术引进了，员工由于不熟悉并不充分利用
3、        引入新技术不一定会增加公司利润，忽略成本，有可能新技术成本很高，需要很多年才能回收，而且培训员工学习新技术也需要花非常多的钱。

The following appeared in a presentation by the chief production manager of a machine parts manufacturing company at a management meeting:
“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.”

AA 在2006 pool里没找到
说因为increasing industrial pollution,某地区的National parks对游客的吸引力不像过去一样好了，tourism industry的revenue在过去五年持续下降。最近在这些national parks里发现了矿产。政府应该同意mining，因为1. mining companies 将会提高政府的tax revenue 2. 会提供hundreds of jobs for workers previously working in tourism industry. 另外，即使without mining，tourism 的revenue还是会下降，所以应该批准mining

AA: today, more on-line reading materials and e-books that could be either downloaded from internet or stored in CD-roms are available to people. Thus the readers can read e-books for free instead of paying for books. Someone uses an on-line survey, the result of which indicates that 1) 72% of people who took the survey are likely to read on computer; 2) 82% people of these on-line readers think classic literature is important. So this person suggests that we should invest in e-books (or on-line reading services) as this is a big market.

写作AA：
一家公司设计SmartPro accounting software，他们在personal software上不如竞争对手，但是通过survey调查得知professional的software长期有竞争优势的原因是professional software里有一些advanced special features，因此他们为了决定increase personal software的sale by adding advanced special features of their professional software.
The following appeared in a memorandum to a team developing accounting software for SmartPro Software, Inc.:
“Currently, more professional accountants use SmartPro accounting software than any other brand. However, in the market for personal accounting software for non-professionals to use in preparing their income tax returns, many of our competitors are outselling us. In surveys, our professional customers repeatedly say that they have chosen SmartPro Software because our most sophisticated software products include more advanced special features than competing brands. Therefore, the most effective way for us to increase sales of our personal accounting software for home users would clearly be to add the advanced special features that our professional software products currently offer.”

AA：说在一个城市去年开了一个shopping mall后，一些local business 倒闭了，停车场告急，犯罪率上升了，所以这个城市应该以后不要通过的shopping Mall的申请新。
The following editorial appeared in the Elm City paper.
“The construction last year of a shopping mall in downtown Oak City was a mistake. Since the mall has opened, a number of local businesses have closed, and the downtown area suffers from an acute parking shortage, and arrests for crime and vagrancy have increased in the nearby Oak City Park. Elm City should pay attention to the example of the Oak City mall and deny the application to build a shopping mall in Elm City.”(新题)
Elm城的报纸上的社论：   
去年在橡树城市中心修建购物中心是个错误。由于中心开业，大量的本地企业倒闭了。而且市中心受到严重缺乏停车位的困扰。在附近的橡树城公园拘捕的罪犯和流浪汉也增加了。榆树城应该注意橡树城购物中心的例子并防止在榆树城建立购物中心。   
提纲：
1.作者所给出的所有问题和商场的建设都是时间上的前后关系而没有给出证据显示他们的因果关系
2.作者只给出了不好的结果而没有给出好的影响很可能权衡利弊之后被选择的是要开这个商场
3.这个商场的建立不应该也不能由此就否定以后所有的商场的建立

AA是关于一个Company X 弄了个survey发现communication是员工最关心的。然后说公司实行了一个定期的communication session with high-level management. 但是这个是自愿的。然后它就得出了个结论说，Company X 解决（不确定是不是这个词）了这个issue.
很多点都是错的。感觉蛮容易的。

Company x 坐了个调研，提高公司上下层之间的交流是员工认为最有必要的，于是blur•••blur•••是本次题库考过的题
The following appeared in a memorandum from the Director of Human Resources to the executive officers of Company X.
“Last year, we surveyed our employees on improvements needed at Company X by having them rank, in order of importance, the issues presented in a list of possible improvements. Improved communications between employees and management was consistently ranked as the issue of highest importance by the employees who responded to the survey. As you know, we have since instituted regular communications sessions conducted by high-level management, which the employees can attend on a voluntary basis. Therefore, it is likely that most employees at Company X now feel that the improvement most needed at the company has been made.”
Discuss how well reasoned... etc
人力资源经理给X公司的经营主管的备忘录：
去年，我们向员工调查他们认为X公司应该进行的改进，让他们把改进按重要性排列。结果列印为一张可能的改进的表格。根据调查中员工的反应，“加强员工和管理层的沟通”最具重要性，稳居调查表之首。如你所知，那以后我们建立了由高层管理人员组织，雇员可以自愿参加的常规交流会。因此，看来X的多数员工认为最应该进行的改进已经完成了。
提纲：
1.        The result of a last year's survey does not necessarily represent the improvement most needed of this year.
2.        How was the survey held has not been illustrated by the author, thus making the conclusion groundless.
3.        Whether the implement of the mentioned resolution is right or wrong is still unkonwn, it is still too early to say the improvement has been made.

1，        调查的可信性：是否anonymous，如果要named，很可能并不是他们最想要的改进。
2，        改进方法是否充分？是否交流会有很好交流，并且采纳accept意见
