gre写作例子:GRE作文范文大全(133)
Finally, the survey results as reported by the speaker are too vague to support any firm
conclusion. The speaker reports that Sanlee students receive lower grades and are more likely
to repeat a school year then Marlee students. Yet the speaker does not indicate whether this
fact applies to Sanlee and Marlee students generally, or just to math and science students.
The speaker's recommendation for all high school students might be defensible in the former
case, but not in the latter case.
In conclusion, the recommendation that all high school students be assigned homework
once per week at most is indefensible based on the evidence. To strengthen the argument, the
speaker must show that the reported correlation in the areas of math and science is also found
among most other academic subjects. The speaker must also rule out other factors that might
determine the students' grades and their likelihood of repeating a year. Finally, to better assess
the argument we would need to know whether the reported disparity in academic performance
between Sanlee and Marlee students involved only math and science students or all students.
Argument 82
A recent study suggests that people who are left-handed are more likely to succeed in
business than are right-handed people. Researchers studied photographs of 1,000 prominent
business executives and found that 21 percent of these executives wrote with their left hand.
So the percentage of prominent business executives who are left-handed (21 percent) is
almost twice the percentage of people in the general population who are left-handed (11
percent). Thus, people who are left-handed would be well advised to pursue a career in
business, whereas people who are right-handed would be well advised to imitate the business
practices exhibited by left-handers.
This argument recommends the all left-handed people should pursue a career in business
and that right-handed people should learn to imitate the business practices of left-handed
people. To support this recommendation the speaker cites a study of 1,000 prominent
business executives, among whom 21 percent were photographed while writing with their left
hand. The speaker then points out that only 11 percent of the general population is left-handed. 感谢您阅读《GRE作文范文大全(133) 》一文,出国留学网(liuxue86.com)编辑部希望本文能帮助到您。
