According to speaker, we should give higher priority to the areas which will provide good service to a large number of people ultimately. Should we? To some extent, we should.
Obviously, everyone is the indispensable part of the society; and we want a guarantee of the better life by handing in so much tax to the government, so ensuring as many as possible people can get enough benefit from science, education, or other any area which have higher priority is the right thing. For instance, all about every country invest huge amounts of human resource to enhance the research of science and technology, which are the primary productive force, because they can produce more behoof to community. Just like advantage of medical science research is that finding more effective method to cure patients and preventing vast of underlying disease. Considering so many people can be served from these researches, our legislators and regulators give more priority to these researches. But it is not to say less benefit, less priority. What with three reasons is that all wrinkles of scientific research should be authorized the same priority.
First of all, it not means that there aren’t enough people who could get profits from research so that these researches have no worth to implement. A simple example is the research of History and Archeology. The archeologists dig out ancient relics, antiquarians analyze the constituent and structure of relics, and historian research the period of the relics. However, there are less people improve or get better lives by the advantages of that research. Whereas, it emerges all kinds of cultures and customs.
Secondly, not all the scientists are interested in profit researches,. They do that research just go for the truth and correct some mistakes which were made by prevenient scientists. It is a pure research. Many sublime scientists’ intents of carrying on their work is to pursue the truth, which is a higher ambit. If all the research are depended on realistic aim, a large researches’ talents would be concealed, even destroyed. It’s unfair and stupid to force researchers to do something that they are not interested in only by the only reason of that research area is very beneficial for a large number of people.
At last, some researches are very difficult to be proved that it will carry out large humorous benefits for human beings in a short time. It is reflected in astronomy, especially in research of Milky Way galaxy. Our government ploughs a large number of resources into and authorizes higher priority to that research, but we don’t improve our lives because of it up to now. We have not to assure that will success in the future, not mentioned how many people will improve their lives at last. Nevertheless, researchers are remorseless to experience all kinds of method which could open the mastery of Milky Way galaxy.
In conclusion, it’s not completely right that research priority are being set for science, education or any other area just for the motive that haw many people will improve their lives. We should evaluate this view multi-directionally because that researches’ benefits are hardly to predicated. We take research for truth —whatever it will bring out.
argument65:
In this memo the president claims that the best way to improve profits is to discontinue stocking many of varieties of imported cheese and concentrate primarily on domestic cheeses. In order to support this claim, the president points out the five best-selling cheeses at newest store were all domestic cheddar cheeses and a recent survey by Cheeses of the World magazine indicates an increasing preference for domestic cheeses among its subscribers. This argument contains several logical flaws, which lead it unconvincing.
A primary problem is the different condition between the new store and other stores. The president doesn’t provide any effective evidence to prove that whether the condition of newest store is similar with other stores or not. If the customs surrounded the new store were likely to eat domestic cheeses while the customs surrounded other stores were likely to eat varieties of imported cheese, the decision that discontinuing stocking many of varieties of imported cheese and concentrating primarily on domestic cheeses will lead the stores in chain to decrease their profits.
Even though the condition mentioned above are very similar, the president ignores the time of new store’ payoff. Firstly, it is entirely possible that the new store is going on sales promotion in a short time, and this sales promotion won’t last a long time. So the best sale is just a unabiding phenomenon. Secondly, best-selling occurred at last year, who can give a guarantee that the new store’ domestic cheddar cheeses also will be sold best at this year? What’s more, the president confused the concepts between best-selling and profit. New store’s domestic cheddar cheeses from Wisconsin Furthermore have very high saleroom, which is not means that they can get a comfortable gain from it.
To say the least, the survey cited by president is doubtful. At first, how many people anticipate this survey? If those person who are not representative join this survey, and the conclusion made by president is not convincing. We can not rule out any other possible that people who favorite imported cheeses have not sent back the questionnaire or not booked this magazine at all, so the president cannot justify that concentrating primarily on domestic cheeses will lead the stores in chain to increase their profits.
In sum, the president’s argument is unpersuatisive as it stands. To strengthen it the president need provide more evidence about the similarities between of new store and other stores, and the president should make it clear that the period of new store’ payoff . Additionally, the president also have to supply better evidence to testify that this survey is impactful and representative.
