The conclusion that the Walnut Grove's town council should continue using EZ seems at first glance to be a convince notion. To the support the conclusion ,the editor present an evidence that EZ collects trash twice a week, while ABC collects only once. In addition, another evidence that EZ which, like ABC ,currently has a fleet of 20 trucks-has ordered additional trucks was showed to justify the notion .Finally, the editor claim his own point of view that EZ provides exceptional service according to the survey that 80 percent of respondents agreed that they were satisfied with EZ's performance.
In the first place, the argument simply equates the quantity with quality of weekly trash collection .The commonsense teach us that to value one's achievements of his or her works , not only take quantity as the criterion, but also focus on the time they spent and the quality of the product. The evidence that EZ collects trash twice a week while ABC collects only once, the editor just mentioned, seems to mislead the reader for those reason below. Firstly, the most important thing that the town hall concerned is the quality of the trash collection. It is premature to ensure EZ is better than ABC until the editor provide more evidence to show the comparison of the trash collection result of the two companies. Secondly, If the workload of the two companies were the same ,therefore the efficiency of ABC is twice more than EZ and what one can image is that when confronting the precipitate incident ,the ABC can do a better job.
In the second place, the editor appreciates who's strong commitment to something to some extent. The evidence that the EZ had ordered more trucks ,according to which it could not make any further prediction because of missing evidence. First of all, there is no more indication that EZ was truly plan to purchase some trucks ,moreover the order might be the camouflage of their calculated chicanery ,which would be canceled after the town hall chosen them. In addition, even if EZ will surely buy some trucks ,more evidence should be present in order to indicate the amount and the use of the new brought trucks. If EZ had ordered many trucks ,but just purchased only one trucks, the town hall and the residents of the town was all be cheated ,since the addition of one truck can bring little dominance to EZ. At the same time, if the trucks brought by EZ were not used for collecting, what the reader ensure is the editor misled us by this delusive evidence.
In the third place, the result of the survey does not necessarily ensure that EZ provides exceptional service last year. Firstly, the statistical evidence of the survey upon which the argument relies is not statistical reliable ,because from the survey we find little sign of the such procedures for sampling, thus doubting whether the respondents constitute a sufficiently large sample so as to be representative of the overall population of the Walnut Grove. In that case ,the survey should be questioned for two reasons : one is that the amount of respondents is unknown ,another one is that whether the relationship between respondents and the employees of EZ exist. Secondly, even if the respondents of the survey are random samples, there still was one problem should be clarify. The information that we attain from the survey merely make us clear that the respondents were satisfied with EZ ,however what we concerned is not only the response of the EZ. So, if 100 present of respondents were satisfied with ABC or more than 80 present ones appreciated the job of ABC,I think the only company I would prefer to choose is ABC.
To sum up, the conclusion lacks credibility because the evidence cited in the analysis does not lend strong support to what the arguer maintains.
