主旨句练习

Argument 4

The following appeared in a letter from a homeowner to a friend.

"Of the two leading real estate firms in our town—Adams Realty and Fitch Realty—Adams Realty is clearly superior. Adams has 40 real estate agents; in contrast, Fitch has 25, many of whom work only part-time. Moreover, Adams' revenue last year was twice as high as that of Fitch and included home sales that averaged $168,000, compared to Fitch's $144,000. Homes listed with Adams sell faster as well: ten years ago I listed my home with Fitch, and it took more than four months to sell; last year, when I sold another home, I listed it with Adams, and it took only one month. Thus, if you want to sell your home quickly and at a good price, you should use Adams Realty. 

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."

首段:概括+主旨句

The homeowner argues AR firm is superior to FT and suggests people use AR to sell their house,because AR has more agents, better sales performance and it can also sell home faster. We need to examine a number of assumptions about  locations of those agents, the numbers of employees in both firms, the average prices and the trade-off between selling price and time.

开头段练习:
题目:
The following appeared in a letter from a homeowner to a friend.

"Of the two leading real estate firms in our town—Adams Realty and Fitch Realty—Adams Realty is clearly superior. Adams has 40 real estate agents; in contrast, Fitch has 25, many of whom work only part-time. Moreover, Adams' revenue last year was twice as high as that of Fitch and included home sales that averaged $168,000, compared to Fitch's $144,000. Homes listed with Adams sell faster as well: ten years ago I listed my home with Fitch, and it took more than four months to sell; last year, when I sold another home, I listed it with Adams, and it took only one month. Thus, if you want to sell your home quickly and at a good price, you should use Adams Realty.

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."

结论:
Thus, if you want to sell your home quickly and at a good price, you should use Adams Realty.
论据:
1.Adams has 40 real estate agents; in contrast, Fitch has 25, many of whom work only part-time.
2.Adams' revenue last year was twice as high as that of Fitch and included home sales that averaged $168,000, compared to Fitch's $144,000.
3.Homes listed with Adams sell faster as well: ten years ago I listed my home with Fitch, and it took more than four months to sell; last year, when I sold another home, I listed it with Adams, and it took only one month.

第一段:
In this letter, the homeowner suggest his friend to use Adams Realty to sell home quickly and at a good price. To support his advice, he wrote that: (1) Adams has more estate agents than Fitch and many of Fitch's agents work only part-time; (2) Adams' revenue and average home sales last year were both higher than that of Fitch; (3) Adams sell homes faster than Fitch. However, to evaluate the suggestion, we need to examine critically some assumptions about the specific scales of  the real estate agents, the time and the  price to sell homes.

谢谢老师,一直有关注老师的文章,可惜30号就要考试了
有个小问题想请教老师您,是关于issue 28的
The surest indicator of a great nation is represented not by the achievements of its rulers,
artists, or scientists, but by the general welfare of its people.
题目说了surest,这样是不是一定要二选一说哪个更好一点才切题?我想到以下的思路,请老师说下算不算偏题
1.不对greatness定义,说两个indicator都是重要的,同时两个indicator还是互相依赖的
2.不对greatness定义,说两个都是有用的indicator,同时还举出其他的indicator,说全部结合起来才算greatness

这样想是感觉如果定义了greatness,还要支持一方,在举例上实在困难,没能力写其他国家发生的事例……
