The greatness of individuals can be decided only by those who live after them, not by their contemporaries.
------正文------
The question about who make the decision of the greatness of individuals is raised by the above statement. In my opinion, individual significance and importance, usually referred to as greatness, and evaluated according to their corresponding contributions, varies from people to people, and from time to time. As a result, individual greatness can be decided by either their contemporaries or those who live after them.

First of all, the greatness of individuals is so variable that it cannot be set to a constant value. Even of the same period of time, the evaluation greatness varies from one culture to another, one region to another, and one person to another. A successful General can be considered fairly great by people who are interested in wars and battles, while he will also be regarded of no contribution or even harmful to the society by people who love peace indeed. Similarly, that successful General can be considered very great by his soldiers and countrymen, whereas he will be unavoidably regarded only as a guilty killer or murderer by his adversaries. A king can be considered the most great person by his residents, but he will be regarded no more than a common person in republic societies. As the standards of evaluation are determined by different cultures, regions, and individuals, the greatness of a person can be significantly changeable. Since the differences among cultures, regions, and individuals can never become diminished, people and society are not able to demand that the greatness of individuals will remain constant some day. Thus the decision of the greatness of individuals is a variable according to the characteristics of cultures, regions, and individuals.

Consequently, the greatness of individuals evaluated by contemporaries and people who live after them cannot be replaced by each other, since the significance and importance of them varies from time to time naturally, according to the evolvement of cultures, regions, and human beings. Consider a scientist who discovered or invented something in the past. If his discoveries or inventions cannot be understood or applied by his contemporaries by virtue of some restrictions, then he could not contribute significantly to his contemporary society and therefore could not be considered great. When his discoveries or inventions were gradually understood and well applied, those people who live after him will realize his contribution and offer him high value of greatness. On the other hand, when those discoveries and inventions were replaced by something more advanced, the greatness of that scientist will decline. Hence, following people can only decide the greatness of their ancestors to their currently operating society, while the significance and importance of individuals to their contemporary society must be decided by their contemporaries.

In conclusion, since the decision of individual greatness is a variable based on the characteristics of cultures, regions, and human beings, the evaluation of individual significance and importance varies according to the evolvement of society. Because the significance or importance of individuals evaluated at a certain time cannot be replaced by that of another time, individual greatness can be decided by either their contemporaries or people living after them.

The following appeared as an editorial in a wildlife journal.
'Arctic deer live on islands in Canada's arctic region. They search for food by moving over ice from island to island during the course of a year. Their habitat is limited to areas warm enough to sustain the plants on which they feed, and cold enough, at least some of the year, for the ice to cover the sea separating the islands, allowing the deer to travel over it. Unfortunately, according to reports from local hunters, the deer populations are declining. Since these reports coincide with recent global warming trends that have caused the sea ice to melt, we can conclude that the decline in arctic deer populations is the result of deer being unable to follow their age-old migration patterns across the frozen sea.'
------正文------
逻辑分析：
(1)        reports from local hunters = the deer population are declining
(2)        coinciding global warming which causes the sea ice to melt = ice cannot cover the sea separating islands even in winter = the deer cannot follow their age-old migration
(3)        the deer population are declining + the deer cannot follow their age old migration = the former results from the latter
破题顺序：
(1)        The reports from local hunter cannot confirm the declination of deer population. (time, region, and credibility)
(2)        It is unverified that the sea separating islands where the deer live cannot be covered by ice in winter. (sea ice melting happens in areas other than where the deer live; sea ice forms in winter even in non-arctic regions)
(3)        Even if the above two assumptions are true, it is unsubstantiated that the declination of the deer exactly results from the circumstance that the deer cannot follow their age-old migration. (hunters, diseases, and lack of food)

------题目------
In any profession—business, politics, education, government—those in power should step down after five years. The surest path to success for any enterprise is revitalization through new leadership.
------正文------
关键词：in power
        revitalization
定义：in power: a person, group, or nation having great influence or control over others
      revitalization: to impact new vigor to
立场：reject

结构安排：
(1)        Admittedly, the revitalization of leadership can impact new vigor to enterprises, but the success in any profession is influenced by many other factors, and the effect of revitalization is not always positive.
(2)        First of all, not all enterprises have alternatives to replace those in power every five years. (a company too small to have many skillful manager; a political organization that currently lacks good leader; a scientific team with only one experienced professor)
(3)        Besides, the desirability of revitalization is restricted by outside environment. (a company which is currently develop dramatically; a country that is currently fight against enemies; an education program that cannot be accomplished in five years)

------题目------
The following appeared in a memo from the vice president of marketing at Dura-Sock, Inc.
'A recent study of Dura-Sock wearers suggests that our company is wasting the money it spends on its patented 'Endure' manufacturing process, which ensures that our socks are strong enough to last for two years. Dura-Sock has always advertised its use of the 'Endure' process, but the new study shows that the average Dura-Sock customer actually purchases new Dura-Socks every three months. Furthermore, Dura-Sock customers surveyed in our largest market, northeastern United States cities, say that they most value Dura-Sock's stylish appearance and availability in many colors. These findings suggest that Dura-Sock can increase its profits by discontinuing its use of the 'Endure' manufacturing process.'
------正文------
逻辑分析：
(1)        the study shows that Dura-Sock customer purchases new Dura-Socks every three months = common Dura-Sock customers purchases new Dura-Socks every three months
(2)        customers buy new Dura-Socks every three months = they do not demand endure socks
(3)        Dura-Sock customers in northeastern United States appreciate stylish appearance and various color availability = all customers do not appreciate duration of socks
破题顺序：
(1)        It is unreasonable to make the conclusion that most customers buy socks every three months according to the mentioned study. (sportsmen, regional geophysical status, and special weather conditions)
(2)        The survey conducted in northeastern United States cannot represent the continental situation of the United States.
(3)        Neither the circumstance that the customers buy socks every three months nor the survey’s results that customers appreciate stylish and colorful appearance indicates that they do not demand endurable socks.

------题目------
The following appeared in a memorandum from the president of Mira Vista College to the college's board of trustees.
'At nearby Green Mountain College, which has more business courses and more job counselors than does Mira Vista College, 90 percent of last year's graduating seniors had job offers from prospective employers. But at Mira Vista College last year, only 70 percent of the seniors who informed the placement office that they would be seeking employment had found full-time jobs within three months after graduation, and only half of these graduates were employed in their major field of study. To help Mira Vista's graduates find employment, we must offer more courses in business and computer technology and hire additional job counselors to help students with their resumés and interviewing skills.'
------正文------
逻辑分析：
(1)        90 percent of graduates of Green Mountain College had job offers + only 70 percent of graduates of Mira Vista College who informed the placement office had found full-time jobs within three months = students of the former obtained better employment than those of the latter
(2)        graduates of Green Mountain College obtained better employment than those of Mira Vista College + Green Mountain College has more business courses and more job counselors = the former results directly from the latter
(3)        Green Mountain College achieve the high rate of employment by adequate business courses and more job counselors + Mira Vista College cannot achieve high employment = students of Mira Vista College do not have perfect resumes and interviewing skills
破题顺序：
(1)        It is unverified to claim that the rate of employment of Green Mountains College’s graduates is higher than that of Mira Vista College’s.
(2)        Even if the rate of employment of Green Mountain College’s graduates is higher, it is unreasonable to attribute it only to more business courses and more job counselors.
(3)        Even if the business courses and job counselors contribute greatly to the high rate of employment, it is unsubstantiated to assert that Mira Vista is in short of business courses and job counselors.
