25The following appeared in a memo from the mayor of the town of Hopewell.
"Two years ago, the town of Ocean View built a new municipal golf course and resort hotel. During the past two years, tourism in Ocean View has increased, new businesses have opened there, and Ocean View's tax revenues have risen by 30 percent. The best way to improve Hopewell's economy, and generate additional tax revenues, is to build a golf course and resort hotel similar to those in Ocean View."
When suggesting the best way to improve Hopewell's economy and generate additional tax revenues is to bulid a golf course and resort hotel, the author provides a seemingly persuasive example of a town named Ocean View whose economy increase after doing so. Taking a close analysis to the article, however, we could find both the example delivered and the line of reasoning actually suffer from a series of critical fallacies, which eventually lead to the untenable of the proposition.
To begin with, the increase and rise in economy represented in tourism, commercial, tax revenues happened after the opening of the golf course and resort hotel may not be the result of it.(我觉得用A does not cause B比较好) The encouraging reasult[outcoming] in economy may be due to the increasing emphasis of the government, and many other facilities and policies(最好可以具体一些,比如减少对golf course and the resort hotel的税收,鼓励它发展等等) taken into function. AndWhile the golf course and resort hotel, however, may be a small part of facilities and the function of them is no doubly open to doubt. (On the other hand, a two-year increase in the economy of the town cannot reprsent that the golf course and the resort hotel works well. It is entirely possible that not only the Ocean View but all areas of the country's economy is on the rise. 我理解你的意思,但是你并没有表达清楚,应该说也许全国经济都在上升,Ocean View的经济发展并不仅仅是因为修建了golf course and the resort hotel有可能有其他原因:改善了城市环境,较低了住宿费用等,以此来吸引更多的游客)Moreover, it is also possible that the tourism gains increasing popular all over the world and thus even if the town keeped as it is tow years ago, it will experience the rising of the economy. As the case stands, this assumption is open to doubt.
Further more, even assuming the increasing of the Ocean View's economy is owning to the buliding of the golf course and the resort building, it is presumptious to concludedconclude that the Hopewell will gain the same benefits by doing so. All suggestions delivered should depend on a case-by-case basis. The circumstances, such as the location, the sence, the transfation, the culture and so forth are various between the two towns. The Ocean View may be fascinating for because ofits natural environment, whereas the Hopewell may be a town whose economy increase mainly depened on the industry. Even more, the time changes and the fashion golf plays appealing during the past two years may on the decline. In this circumstance, however, it is obviously impossible togain much benefits by opening a fashion out-of -date. (最好conclude一下,感觉没有说完整)
Even more, supposed the building of the golf course and the resort hotal are feasible to improve the Hopewell's economy and tourism, the statements of both it is the best way to attain the goal and to build this tow kind of facilities similar to the Ocean View are open to doubt. In the first place, the author did not prove that other ways to improve economy and generate tax revenues is inferior to just build a golf course and resort hotel.(建议举一个例子,比如在Hopewell也许修建工厂会更好) In the second place, both the golf course and the hotel have many kinds of styles. Perhaps the style in Ocean View receives the accolade it deserves, but you cannot suppose that the style is either the best one or suitable fashion for Hopewell. As the analysis dilevered above, we could safely draw the conclusion that the process of the reasoning is inconvincible.
All that can be conclude by assembling the evidence and reasons provided by the author is that the statements is not eloquent as it stands. To further support the conclusion, the author must deliver convincing examples and reason logically in an appropriate manner.
(终于找到你的文章啦,呵呵,你帮我改的那么仔细,我怎能不回拍,建议把拼写错误先自己纠正,呵呵,攻击的时候举的例子再多一些,加油~~~) |
