「四人杀鸡五月组」

Argument assignment 1

Argument 145:

The following appeared in a memo to the board of directors of a company that specializes in the delivery of heating oil.
"Most homes in the northeastern United States, where winters are typically cold, have traditionally used oil as their major fuel for heating. Last heating season, that region experienced 90 days with below-normal temperatures, and climate forecasters predict that this weather pattern will continue for several more years. Furthermore, many new homes are being built in the region in response to recent population growth. Because of these trends, we can safely predict that this region will experience an increased demand for heating oil during the next five years."

Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the prediction and the argument on which it is based are reasonable. Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the prediction.

Argument 41:

The following appeared in a health newsletter.
"A ten-year nationwide study of the effectiveness of wearing a helmet while bicycling indicates that ten years ago, approximately 35 percent of all bicyclists reported wearing helmets, whereas today that number is nearly 80 percent. Another study, however, suggests that during the same ten-year period, the number of bicycle-related accidents has increased 200 percent. These results demonstrate that bicyclists feel safer because they are wearing helmets, and they take more risks as a result. Thus, to reduce the number of serious injuries from bicycle accidents, the government should concentrate more on educating people about bicycle safety and less on encouraging or requiring bicyclists to wear helmets."
Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the argument. Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.

30pm boot什么东西？

5：30pm 一般是我的work out time.
boot camp training 是美国海兵新兵训练，我这个是在gym里，远比不上正式的军训。

看了大家的回应，另外和小组里的一些人沟通了一下，现在决定每天学习任务大家自己定吧！每个人的进展不同， ...

看你括号里的话是把我排除在小组之外吗？啊，我疯了，求顺带包养啊，另外具体规定我觉得可以这样，你看行不，就是每天更新作文题，每个人根据自身当日情况决定是否参加，参加的话于当日晚十一点之前提交作业，不交作业默认不参加，然后由你分组互改，2或3人一组(防止谁事情多实在无法交)，机动灵活，完全自愿，这是我在T版小组学的，你可以看一下

另外我觉得你让大家写不同题目是个创举，超赞！

没有把你排除在外，你今天的作业是argument No. 41, 和Batigoal0611，stupidjoey在一组。我们是第一次写作文，每天都写不能保证质量。其实现在这样写&改不同的文章相当于两篇了，所以你的建议现在不予考虑。thanks for your suggestion anyway.
