argument107 限时烂作
107 The following appeared in an editorial in the Seatown newspaper. 【107】"Seatown has a large port exclusively for fishing boats, whose owners pay fees for the upkeep of the docks and for facilities for cleaning engines and repairing nets. In recent years, declining fish populations have decreased fishing revenue and forced many owners to stop fishing altogether. As a result, the port has a high vacancy rate and port managers are considering allowing pleasure boats, including cruise ships and other large vessels, to use the port in order to increase revenue. But allowing pleasure boats into the port would be a mistake, because the fishing boats would be forced out of the port. We should preserve the port for the fishing fleet, which, unlike pleasure boats, contributes to the prosperity of Seatown."
In the argument the speaker asserts that people should preserve the port for the fishing fleet which contributes to the prosperity of Seatown, rather than allow pleasure boats into the port, for the reason that fishing boats would be forced out of the port by pleasure boats. Closer scrutiny however reveals there are several logical flaws and gratuitous assumptions, which render the argument unconvincing.
The first problem of the argument lies in the assumption of the fishing boats would be forced out of the port by pleasure boats. However, the arguer does not provide substantiating evidence to prove this assumption. Perhaps, pleasure boats will not exercise any negative effects on fishing ones, or attract a large number of tourists who are likely to buy fish of Seatown. Even assuming pleasure boats would bring about some adverse influences on fishing boats, such as pollution or interrupt normal fishing behaviors. People may exert effective measures, involving adopting less polluted pleasure boats or confining rigid places of ports for these pleasure boats, in order to mitigate these concerns of people. Without providing strong evidence to bolster the assumption that fishing boats would be forced out of the port, the arguer's conclusion concerning limiting pleasure boats does not convince us.
Another problem of the argument involves in another assumption that pleasure boats will not contribute to the prosperity of Seatown. Yet, there is no evidence to substantiate this claim. It is possible that pleasure boats could attract a large number of tourists which bring about more revenues than fishing. It is also possible that tourism can stimulate the economic activities of Seatown, which expand larger market of fishing. Either possibility, if true, would cast severe doubt on arguer's conclusion that pleasure boats would not contribute to the prosperity of Seatown.
Finally, the arguer claims that people should preserve the port for fishing fleet, because fishing is conducive to prosperity of Seatown. However, the argument does not explain the reasons of declining fish populations and a high vacancy rate of port. Perhaps, people who engage in fishing find pleasure boats, which are relatively less laborious, would bring about more revenue compared with fishing. Or perhaps, the river of Seatown has suffered serious pollution and the quality and quantity of fish has greatly declined. Or it is also possible that the fee of upkeep of the docks and for facilities for cleaning engines and repairing nets is too high which cannot be afforded by fishing people. In this case, merely preserving the port for fishing fleet does not address the problem, and people should seek for real reason of declining fish populations and vacancy rate.
In conclusion, the argument is unsupportive as it stands. Rather than relying solely on some gratuitous assumption the arguer should provide clear evidence that preserving the port for the fishing fleet contribute to the prosperity of Seatown, and pleasure boats will exert negative influence on fishing boats. 呵呵,我今天考完了
