GRE官方题库原题91

The following appeared as part of an article in a business magazine.

"A recent study rating 300 male and female advertising executives according to the average number of hours they sleep per night showed an association between the amount of sleep the executives need and the success of their firms. Of the advertising firms studied, those whose executives reported needing no more than six hours of sleep per night had higher profit margins and faster growth. On the basis of this study, we recommend that businesses hire only people who need less than six hours of sleep per night."

Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the recommendation 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 recommendation.

题目翻译

最近一项根据每天平均睡眠时间，对300名m市广告公司男女高管调查显示出了高管们所需的睡眠时间与他们公司成功与否的关联。根据对这些广告公司的研究，那些公司高管报告说每天睡眠不足6小时的公司利润更高并且发展更快。这些结果表明如果公司想蓬勃发展，他们就必须只雇佣那些每天睡眠不足6小时的管理人员。

题目分析

1. 300人的样本数量可能不够大。样本不一定够全，针对高管的调查结论未必适用于所有员工。也许对于普通员工，更多的睡眠才能使精力充沛，对公司更有利。

2. 即使该调查适用于普通员工，也不能证明睡眠时间与企业情况有因果关系。或许这只是一个巧合，并不是企业的发展源于高管睡眠时间的减少。

3. 建议未必有效，甚至可能有负面影响。比如睡眠时间少，使得员工效率低，错误率高等。有其他更好的方式来提高公司的效益。比如聘请有成功经验的高管、更优秀的毕业生、改进公司的管理等。
