28The following is a memo from the superintendent of the Mylar school district.

"A recent six-month study, in which breakfast was made available at school for 100 schoolchildren ages five to twelve, found that children on the breakfast plan were less likely than other children to be absent from or late for school. Clearly, eating breakfast before school plays a role in reducing student absenteeism and tardiness. It is also well known that children who regularly eat a healthful breakfast tend to perform better in school. Therefore, in order to reduce absenteeism and tardiness and to improve academic performance in all of Mylar's elementary and secondary schools, we should provide breakfasts for all students before each school day."

argument 28
28.The following is a memo from the superintendent of the Mylar school district.
"A recent six-month study, in which breakfast was made available at school for 100 schoolchildren ages five to twelve, found that children on the breakfast plan were less likely than other children to be absent from or late for school. Clearly, eating breakfast before school plays a role in reducing student absenteeism and tardiness. It is also well known that children who regularly eat a healthful breakfast tend to perform better in school. Therefore, in order to reduce absenteeism and tardiness and to improve academic performance in all of Mylar's elementary and secondary schools, we should provide breakfasts for all students before each school day."
在一项最近的为期6个月的研究中，我们为100名5至12岁的小学生在学校提供早餐；研究发现参加早餐计划的儿童比其他儿童更不容易缺席或迟到。显然，上学前吃早餐对于减少学生的缺席和迟到作用很大。而且众所周知经常吃健康早餐的儿童一般在学校的表现也更好。因此，为减少缺席和迟到以及提高Mylar所有小学和初中的学习成绩，我们应该在每天上课前为所有学生提供早餐。
Errors:
①        Number: the number of who joined the breakfast program and of who didn’t should be the same.
②        Student: we cannot guarantee that students who are in or out of the program are the same in absenteeism and tardiness before the program is executed. The best way to do is to compare the identical students to do the study.
③        Breakfast: there is no evident that breakfast at school is healthier than that at home.
④        Performance: Without more information, we cannot ensure if a healthy breakfast can improve performance at school.

原题逻辑：吃早餐不迟到拖沓成绩好——》学校供早餐
1、can’t get the conclusion that eating breakfast before school plays a role in reducing student absenteeism and tardiness.
First, (偷换概念)breakfast plan but not eating breakfast itself makes less likely; 调查显示的是有早餐计划的同学更不容易…而不是有没有吃早餐的同学更不容易…，有做事的计划才是影响时间的因素，而吃不吃早餐本身是不能影响上学的，例如：早上八点上课，一位没有提前制定早餐计划的同学今天早上八点起床且有吃早餐，他必定是要absent，而另外一位有制定计划的同学按计划早上七点起床go class一定不会迟到，if one hour is enough for his distance to school.
Second, a period of half a year, maybe a litter short, is not very representative.
2、        有上述论证可知，不是学校provide breakfasts for all students before each school day就能达到reduce absenteeism and tardiness，而是提供的早餐要保证学生在规定的时间之前吃完以致不影响go class；同时还要保证早餐质量healthful；
即使这些都满足，也只能针对the objectives of investigation from age 5 to 12，but not all of Mylar's elementary and secondary schools
Conclusion: in order to reduce the bad phenomena mentioned above, enhance the time consciousness, simultaneously, the school can make such kind of plans to help students manage themselves.
