Outline:
1.作者引用的report存在两个问题。一方面,数量太小,不能够具有代表性,另一方面,比男性感到的痛苦小,仅仅是由女性患者说的,没有科学依据。
2.作者在得出结论的时候,忽略了这种麻醉剂可能对女性使用者带来副作用,并且也没有充分考虑到也许KO这种麻醉剂对于男性患者来说已经是最有效的止痛剂了。
3.最后,作者认为所有的药都应该重新评估,但事实是有些药是近期才做过实验的,或者是有些药根本不会因性别而产生区别。此外,药的种类数以万计,要吧所有的药都进行重新评估是一件不可能的事情。因此,去重新评估所有药是不必要也不可行的。
In the argument presented above, the author concludes that kappa opioids(KO) should be prescribed for women and other kinds of pain medication should be given to men. To support this conclusion, the author cites a report on a controlled experiment, in which women reported feeling much less pain than the men when they were administered the same dosage of KO. Moreover, the author mentioned that all medications should be reevaluated about their effects on men versus women. However, the argument is flawed in several important respects as follows.
First problem with the argument is that the report has many fallacies. On the one hand, since the research involved only 48 patients, these patients' respondences to KO cannot represent general patients' reactions. On the other hand, there are many other possibilities, which can also make the women feel less painful than the men, such as women's natural tolerance in pain, the relaxing conversation between the women and the researcher, and women's longer recuperative period after having their wisdom teeth extracted. Therefore, the study suggests nothing unless the author run it with more patients and put men and women in the same experimental environment.
Secondly, assuming that the experiment has been conducted in a proper way, the arguer unfairly generalize the conclusion that women should take KO whenever they need pain medication, and men should take other pain medication. For one thing, the author omits the probable side effects caused by KO. These effects may accelerate one's heartbeats, which is deadly to those patients with heart-attack and they may also cause problems in brain and central nervous system. For another, the author makes a cursory mistake that men should take another pain medication instead. It is entirely possible that KO for men is already the most effective pain medication. Without taking fully into account, the author cannot simply draw this conclusion.
Finely, even if the author's conclusion about who should take the KO is reasonable. However whether we should reevaluate the effects of all medications on men versus women is remained to be discussed. There is some possibility that many medications have just been evaluated few days ago, so reevaluation on them is becoming unnecessary. Besides, medications are diversity in thousands of areas in the medical field, which makes it impossible to reevaluate all these medications. Hence, without restrictions on the kinds of medications, to reevaluate medications will be useless and infeasible.
To sum up, I am not convinced that women should take KO whenever pain medication is required and men should take another pain medication instead. To strengthen this conclusion, the author have to assure me that the study was performed in a controlled environment where all other factors possibly affecting the result of the study remained constant. Furthermore, the author also need to reconsider his/her conclusion about whether women and men should be given KO and whether all medications should be reevaluated.

First problem with the argument is that the report has many fallacies. On the one hand, since the research involved only 48 patients, these patients' respondence to KO cannot represent general patients' reactions. Perhaps the other patients' with KO may have the opposite respondence. On the other hand, there are many other possibilities, which can also make the women feel less painful than the men, such as women's congenital
tolerance in pain, the relaxing conversation between the women and the researcher, and women's faster recuperation after having their wisdom teeth extracted. Therefore, the study suggests nothing unless the author run it with more patients and put men and women in the same experimental environment.

Without taking the side effects and effectiveness of KO fully into account, the author cannot simply draw this conclusion.

However whether we should reevaluate the effects of all medications on men versus women is remained to be discussed. Medications are diversity in thousands of areas in the medical fields, which makes it impossible to reevaluate all these medications because it sees like Penelope's web. Besides, There is some possibility that many medications have just been evaluated few days ago, so reevaluation on them is becoming unnecessary.
Hence, without restrictions on the kinds of medications the author metioned, to reevaluate all medications will be useless and infeasible.
