In this argument, the arguer commends that the company should switch to advertisments
featuring a distnctive song to improve company's profits.To justify this claim ,the arguer
provides the evidence that 85% students could easily recognize the tunes to advertise
leading soft drinks and restaurants.In addtion, he also cites the fact that their home
appliances declined. A careful examination would reveal how groudless the conclusion is.The
argument has several logical flaws and is problematic for several reasons.
  First of all, the argument rests on the gratuitous assumption that the survey is reliable.
But ,in fact, the result of the survey is open to doubt.Because the survey is not
repesentative. The arguer do not tell us about how the survey is doing, how many people is
asked.Maybe only some students take part in the survey.If so, the survey is useless at all.
  Secondly, the argument fails to establish a causal relationshiop between the two facts:
recognize the tunes used to advertise leading soft and fast-food restaurants and go to these
places to buy something.Common sense tells us , even if we recognize the advertisments song
and even love the song, we will still not go to the place, let alone buy something.
  Thirdly, the arguer commit a faulty of false analogy.The soft drinks and fast food
restaurant is not equal to home appliances.A featuring song maybe attracts many people to
come to the restaurants.Because,people want to have a comfortable environment when they eat
or drink something.However,when people buy appliances,they maybe not like to listen to
music.So a distinctive song is useless for a company which sells home appliances.
  At last but not lest,the reason for the declineed sales of home appliances is
questionable.The arguer fails to role out other reasons, such as our appliances are out of
date ,the whole area of appliances market is poor and our services are bad.All of these
reasons can effect the sales.
  To sum up,the recommendation relies on certain doubtful assumptions that render it
unconvicing as it stands.To bolster the recommendation, the arguer should provides more
reliabe facts and reasons.
