Issue( 目前收集到两种类型)
1 Governments should not fund any scientific research whose consequences are unclear.
2 Claim: It is no longer possible for a society to regard any living man or woman as a hero.
Reason: The reputation of anyone who is subjected to media scrutiny will eventually be diminished.
Argument
There is now evidence that the relaxed pace of life in small towns promotes better health and greater longevity than does the hectic pace of life in big cities.Businesses in the small town of Leeville report fewer days of sick leave taken by individual workers than do businesses in the nearby large city of Masonton.Furthermore,Leeville has only one physician for its one thousand residents,but in Masonton the proportion of physicians to residents is five times as high.Finally,the average age of Leeville residents is significantly higher than that of Masonton residents.These findings suggest that people seeking longer and healthier lives should consider moving to small communities.
Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the argument.Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.
