　　argument:

　　Old Dairy Industries 產高脂肪和膽固醇的產品，然后什么調查顯示80%人desire low-fat的食品，然后就說，毫無疑問，這個工廠不會盈利。然后建議持有這個公司股票的人拋出股票，別人也別買這個公司股票。

　　出自題庫76

　　"Over 80 percent of the respondents to a recent survey indicated a desire to reduce their intake of foods containing fats and cholesterol,and today low-fat products abound in many food stores.Since many of the food products currently marketed by Old Dairy Industries are high in fat and cholesterol,the company's sales are likely to diminish greatly and company profits will no doubt decrease.We therefore advise Old Dairy stockholders to sell their shares,and other investors not to purchase stock in this company."

　　Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the advice and the argument on which it is based are reasonable.Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the advice.

　　最近一次調查中超過80％的回應者表達了他們想減少含脂肪和膽固醇的食品的愿望，現在很多食品商店都提供豐富的低脂肪食品。由于Old Dairy Industries當前生產的很多產品都有很高的脂肪和膽固醇含量，該公司的銷量有可能嚴重下降，其盈利無疑會減少。因而我們建議Old Dairy的貢持有者拋出他們所持的股份，其他投資者也不應購買該公司的股份。

　　Argument:

　　The following appeared in a memo to the board of directors of a company that specializes in the delivery of heating oil.

　　"Most homes in the northeastern United States, where winters are typically cold, have traditionally used oil as their major fuel for heating. Last heating season, that region experienced 90 days with below-normal temperatures, and climate forecasters predict that this weather pattern will continue for several more years. Furthermore, many new homes are being built in the region in response to recent population growth. Because of these trends, we can safely predict that this region will experience an increased demand for heating oil during the next five years."

　　Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the prediction and the argument on which it is based are reasonable. Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the prediction.
