GRE官方题库原题93

In surveys Mason City residents rank water sports (swimming, boating, and fishing) among their favorite recreational activities. The Mason River flowing through the city is rarely used for these pursuits, however, and the city park department devotes little of its budget to maintaining riverside recreational facilities. For years there have been complaints from residents about the quality of the river's water and the river's smell. In response, the state has recently announced plans to clean up Mason River. Use of the river for water sports is, therefore, sure to increase. The city government should for that reason devote more money in this year's budget to riverside recreational facilities.

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.

题目翻译

调查显示m市的老百姓把水上运动(游泳，划船及垂钓)作为最受欢迎的娱乐活动。贯穿m市的M河很少被用于水上运动，然而城市公园部门很少投入资金去维护沿河的活动设施。这么多年居民们一直投诉河水的质量及味道。为了回应这一投诉，当局最近宣布了清理M河的计划，因此M河的水上活动使用将会增加。所以市政府应该增加对河岸活动设施的资金投入。

题目分析

1. 文中没有提及样本的组成和数量，或许调查的结果有失偏颇，不能代表M城市民的真实想法。

2. 即使调查结论可靠，开始治理也并不意味着在M河上进行的水上活动就要变多。首先是治理期限不清楚，或许需要几年才能改善水质;其次即使期限很短，也许人们早已习惯于在其他地方进行水上活动。

3. 即使M河上的活动要变多，增加投入也未必有效。首先也许设施已经很完备了，不需要资金来修缮;其次即使设施不太完备，修缮之后人们也未必会倾向于来这里进行活动，除了恶臭和更好的目的地之外，也许还有安全或周边景色等的考量。

4. 即使投入资金可行，也未必说明该方案最佳。也许花资金进行宣传更能吸引人来进行水上活动;或是花更多的钱来治理河流会更好。
