Issue #40
"In order to improve the quality of instruction at the college and university
level, all faculty should be required to spend time working outside the
academic world in professions relevant to the courses they teach."
Argument #209
The following appeared in a recommendation from the planning department of
the city of Transopolis. "Ten years ago, as part of a comprehensive urban
renewal program, the city of Transopolis adapted for industrial use a large a
rea of severely substandard housing near the freeway. Subsequently, several
factories were constructed there, crime rates in the area declined, and
property tax revenues for the entire city increased. To further revitalize
the city, we should now take similar action in a declining residential area
on the opposite side of the city. Since some houses and apartments in
existing nearby neighborhoods are currently unoccupied, alternate housing
for those displaced by this action will be readily available."
Good Luck ~~

Issue
51"High-profile awards such as the Nobel Prize are actually damaging to
society because they suggest that only a few people deserve
such recognition."
73"Government should preserve publicly owned wilderness areas in their
natural state, even though these areas are often extremely remote and
thus accessible to only a few people.
Argument
Thirteen years ago, researchers studied a group of 25 infants who showed
signs of mild distress when exposed to unfamiliar stimuli such as an unusual
odor or a tape recording of an unknown voice. They discovered that these
infants were more likely than other infants to have been conceived in early
autumn, a time when their mothers' production of melatonin—a hormone known
to affect some brain functions—would naturally increase in response to
decreased daylight. In a follow-up study conducted earlier this year, more
than half of these children—now teenagers—who had shown signs of distress
identified themselves as shy. Clearly, increased levels of melatonin before
birth cause shyness during infancy and this shyness continues into later life.

ISSUE
#31"Such nonmainstream areas of inquiry as astrology, fortune-telling,
and psychic and paranormal pursuits play a vital role in society
by satisfying human needs that are not addressed by mainstream science."
#40"In order to improve the quality of instruction at the college and
university level, all faculty should be required to spend time working
outside the academic world in professions relevant to the courses they
teach."
ARGUMENT
#137 The following appeared in an editorial in a business magazine.
"Although the sales of Whirlwind video games have declined over
the past two years, a recent survey of video-game players suggests
that this sales trend is about to be reversed. The survey asked
video-game players what features they thought were most important
in a video game. According to the survey, players prefer games that
provide lifelike graphics, which require the most up-to-date computers.
Whirlwind has just introduced several such games with an extensive
advertising campaign directed at people 10 to 25 years old, the
age-group most likely to play video games. It follows, then, that the
sales of Whirlwind video games are likely to increase dramatically in
the next few months."

"There are two types of laws: just and unjust. Every individual in a society
has a responsibility to obey just laws and, even more importantly, to disobey
and resist unjust laws."
ARGUMENT
178
"A new report suggests that men and women experience pain very differently
from one another, and that doctors should consider these differences when
prescribing pain medications. When researchers administered the same dosage
of kappa opioids—a painkiller—to 28 men and 20 women who were having their
wisdom teeth extracted, the women reported feeling much less pain than the
men, and the easing of pain lasted considerably longer in women. This research
suggests that kappa opioids should be prescribed for women whenever pain
medication is required, whereas men should be given other kinds of pain
medication. In addition, researchers should reevaluate the effects of all
medications on men versus women."
另外一篇ISSUE忘了,總之,大家加油...

2.ｓｏｒｒｙ我忘了^^"
【Ａｒｇｕｍｅｎｔ】
The following is a letter from an editor at Liber Publishing Company to
the company's prsident.
"In recent years, Liber has unfortunately moved away from its original
mission: to publish the works of regional small-town authors instead of
those big-city authors. Just last year, 90 percent of novels we published
were written by authors who maintain a residence in a big city. Although
this change must have been intended to increase profits, it has obviously
backfired, because Liber is now in serious financial trouble. The only way
to address this problem is to return to our originl mission. If we return to
publishing only the works of regional small-town authors, our finacial troubles
will soon be resolved."

ARG
Claitown University needs both affordable housing for its students and a way
to fund the building of such housing. The best solution to this problem is to
commission a famous architect known for experimental and futuristic
buildings. It is common knowledge that tourists are willing to pay money to
tour some of the architect's buildings, so it can be expected that tourists
will want to visit this new building. The income from the fees charged to
tourists will soon cover the building costs. Furthermore, such a building
will attract new students as well as donations from alumni. And even though
such a building will be much larger than our current need for student
housing, part of the building can be used as office space.
Claitown大學需要為學生提供較為廉價的住房，以及需要尋找到一種方法，來為建造此類
住房提供資金。解決這一問題的最佳方案是將建築設計委托給一位以實驗性和未來主義建
築風格著稱的建築設計師。眾所周知，觀光旅游者均願意花錢去游覽該建築師設計的某些
建築，因此，我們可以預料，游人將會參觀這一新建大樓。從向游人收取的費用中產生的
收益將很快就涵蓋建造成本。此外，這樣一座建築將吸引新學生來就讀，也能吸引校友的
捐款。雖然這樣一座建築規模之大會超出我們目前學生住房的需要，但大樓的部分區域可
以用作辦公空間。
ISSUE
215"People often look for similarities, even between very different things,
and even when it is unhelpful or harmful to do so. Instead, a thing should be
considered on its own terms; we should avoid the tendency to compare it to
something else."
215、人們經常尋找相似處，不管兩個事物有多麼不同，即便這樣做沒有意義或是有害的
。我們應該就事論事，避免把它拿去和其他事物比較。

ISSUE:
"Although many people think that the luxuries and conveniences of contemporary life are entirely harmless, in fact, they actually prevent people from developing into truly strong and independent individuals."
ARGUMENT:
The following article appeared in a recent issue of a college newspaper.
"Among all students who graduated from Hooper University over the past five years, more physical science majors than social science majors found permanent jobs within a year of graduation. In a survey of recent Hooper University graduates, most physical science majors said they believed that the prestige of Hooper University's physical science programs helped them significantly in finding a job. In contrast, social science majors who found permanent employment attributed their success to their own
personal initiative. Therefore, to ensure that social science majors find permanent jobs, Hooper University should offer additional social science courses and hire several new faculty members who already have national reputations in the social sciences."
