170,For the past five years, consumers in California have been willing to pay twice as much for oysters from the northeastern Atlantic Coast as for Gulf Coast oysters. This trend began shortly after harmful bacteria were found in a few raw Gulf Coast oysters. But scientists have now devised a process for killing the bacteria. Once consumers are made aware of the increased safety of Gulf Coast oysters, they are likely to be willing to pay as much for Gulf Coast as for northeastern Atlantic Coast oysters, and greater profits for Gulf Coast oyster producers will follow.
-------------------------------------------------------
The author, in this argument, claims that once the consumers are made aware of the safety of Gulf Coast oysters they are likely to be willing to pay as much for Gulf Coast as for northeastern Atlantic Coast oysters. Meanwhile, the author reasons that the greater profits for Gulf Coast oyster producers will follow. However, a careful consideration of this argument would reveal how groundless the conclusion is.开头多不多?用不用再简练一些?
不多,但是个人建议把第一和第二句的因果关系说清楚, 方便下面攻击。不过只是个人观点,无碍!!
One problem with this argument is that the author attributes the unpopularity of the Gulf Coast oyster to the insecurity, which lacks convincing evidence. It is entirely possible that people prefer the oyster of the northeastern Atlantic Coast because they oyster there is bigger and more delicious cooked by the experienced chef compared to the smaller ones that cooked by a few green chef of the Gulf Coast. In this case, whether the oyster of the Gulf Coast is safe of ( or )unsafe, it cannot attract consumers, needless to say make them be willing to pay as much money as for northeastern Atlantic Coast oysters. Therefore, the author lacks evidence to convince us about this problem.
最后一句过于笼统了吧?
In addition, given that the harmful bacteria is the reason for the people's dislike of the Gulf Coast oyster, there is no evidence to guarantee that the restaurants will employ this skill and people will buy them even after their knowing that a process for the bacteria has devised by the scientists. ( 应该是即使知道了以后吧?)Common sense tells us that to employ a new technology that is just found out(devised 比较好一些) will cost more, hence, without serious supervise(supervisal), the restaurants cannot be guaranteed to spend more money to adopt the new skills. (这句好别扭啊!把be去掉。guarantee to do )Worrying about this, consumers are still likely to buy the oyster of the northeastern Atlantic Coast.
Finally, the author hastily assumes that greater profits for the Gulf Coast oyster producers will follow. It is known to all that profits have something to do with plenty of factors, such as the rent of the land, the price of the oyster asked by the fishermen and the increasing cost for the new technology to skill the harmful bacteria other than the number of the consumers. However, the author does not provide any statistic to ensure that after evaluating all these relevant factors, the profits will follow.
In summary, the author fails to adequately support his conclusion. To strengthen the argument, the author needs to provide enough evidence to convince me that the harmful bacteria is the only reason for the people's dislike of the Gulf Coast oyster and the restaurants there will employ the new technology to kill the bacteria as well as more statistics to ensure the profit will increase greatly.
具体的词的用法还需要斟酌一下。有些话说的太死了,最好加一些possible 不过我认为你的结尾比较圆满.上次漏了一篇恕我食言.这篇补上,继续努力!! |
