题目

A recent study reported that pet owners have longer, healthier lives on average than do people who own no pets. Specifically, dog owners tend to have a lower incidence of heart disease. In light of these findings, Sherwood Hospital should form a partnership with Sherwood Animal Shelter to institute an adopt-a-dog program. The program would encourage dog ownership for patients recovering from heart disease, which should reduce these patients' chance of experiencing continuing heart problems and also reduce their need for ongoing treatment. As a further benefit, the publicity about the program would encourage more people to adopt pets from the shelter. And that will reduce the incidence of heart disease in the general population.

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

最近一项研究报告发现，平均来说，养宠物的人比不养宠物的更长寿、更健康。特别是养狗的人，他们的心脏病发病率往往较低。鉴于这些发现，Sherwood医院应该与Sherwood动物收容所建立合作关系以开展“领养一只狗”的计划。该计划将会鼓励处于心脏病康复期的患者养狗，这将降低这些病人持续性心脏发病的可能，并减小他们持续的治疗需求。另外一个好处是，对于该计划的宣传将会鼓励更多的人从收容所中领养宠物。而且，这将减少全体居民患心脏病的风险。

写一篇文章，检查论证过程中陈述和/或未陈述的假设。一定要解释论证过程是如何依赖这些假设建立的，如果这些假设被证明是不合理的，对于论证过程来说有哪些潜在影响。

题目分析

A. 前提：a recent study reported that pet owners have longer, healthier lives on average than do people who own no pets. Specifically, dog owners tend to have a lower incidence of heart disease

B. 结论：in light of these findings, Sherwood Hospital should form a partnership with Sherwood Animal Shelter to institute an adopt-a-dog program

Sherwood医院应该与Sherwood动物收容所建立合作关系以开展“领养一只狗”的计划

C. 论据：

1. The program would encourage dog ownership for patients recovering from heart disease, which should reduce these patients' chance of experiencing continuing heart problems and also reduce their need for ongoing treatment

该计划将会鼓励处于心脏病康复期的患者养狗，这将降低这些病人持续性心脏发病的可能，并减小他们持续的治疗需求

2. The publicity about the program would encourage more people to adopt pets from the shelter

另外一个好处是，对于该计划的宣传将会鼓励更多的人从收容所中领养宠物

3. That will reduce the incidence of heart disease in the general population

这将减少全体居民患心脏病的风险

提纲(可攻击点)

1、“心脏病康复期的患者”和调查中所说的“养狗的人”是否是同一类人群?如果不是，他们有什么区别?

2、减少心脏病康复期患者的治疗次数以及费用是否能降低人们患心脏病的风险?治疗费用和次数的减少是否和题目的论证过程(因为养狗可以降低心脏病的发病率，所以要建立“领养一只狗”的计划)有关?

3、领养其他宠物是否会降低人们得心脏病的风险?

4、除了健康或减少患病风险外，人们决定领养宠物会考虑到哪些其他因素?
