GRE写作ARGUMENT作文6则高分写法思路心得分享

GRE写作ARGUMENT作文6则高分写法思路心得分享
The following is a letter to the editor of the Roseville Gazette.
Despite opposition from some residents of West Roseville, the arguments in favor of merging the townships of Roseville and West Roseville are overwhelming. First, residents in both townships are confused about which authority to contact when they need a service; for example, the police department in Roseville receives many calls from residents of West Roseville. This sort of confusion would be eliminated with the merger. Second, the savings in administrative costs would be enormous, since services would no longer be duplicated: we would have only one fire chief, one tax department, one mayor, and so on. And no jobs in city government would be lost-employees could simply be reassigned. Most importantly, the merger will undoubtedly attract business investments as it did when the townships of Hamden and North Hamden merged ten years ago.

GRE作文 必备 Argument 20条

GRE作文 必备 Argument 20条

1、Woven baskets characterized by a particular distinctive pattern have previously been found only in the immediate vicinity of the prehistoric village of Palea and therefore were believed to have been made only by the Palean people. Recently, however, archaeologists discovered such a "Palean" basket in Lithos, an ancient village across the Brim River from Palea. The Brim River is very deep and broad, and so the ancient Paleans could have crossed it only by boat, and no Palean boats have been found. Thus it follows that the so-called Palean baskets were not uniquely Palean.Write a response in which you discuss what specific evidence is needed to evaluate the argument and explain how the evidence would weaken or strengthen the argument.1)需要证据证明只有通过船才能运篮子到河对岸去,由于这无法证明,所以篮子不一定非要通过船才可以运过去。

而且人们有可能游过去2)目前没有证据表明Palea人拥有船只,不代表实际上没有,可能还没发现。

GRE的argument写作万能模板

GRE的argument写作万能模板

GRE的argument写作万能模板为了帮助大家备考gre。

了解更多关于gre的知识,打有准备的仗,下面小编给大家带来GRE 的argument写作万能模板,希望大家喜欢。

GRE 的argument写作万能模板一. 背景介绍-----万能123的诞生它的优势在于:让你用最快的时间找出攻击点,不仅解决攻击语言还解决攻击顺序,还能节省你考试时列提纲的时间我刚开始复习时也是很苦恼,但是当我对着北美范文写了十几篇并日日思索之后,发现了一个万能找茬法。

它的精髓就在于教你写一套属于自己的万能123模板,这个模板不仅解决你语言,攻击顺序,更你提高你的效率,即给你一个找茬的火眼金睛,又给你一个呼之欲出的思路。

我考前一天把我自己的模板背了又背了一遍,考的那篇文章我虽没写过,但是我在issue和argument 中场休息的1分钟之内把我的万能123找茬写在草稿纸上,题目出来后仅仅花了1分钟在万能123找茬勾出题目中题目中的错误点,这样连提纲都省了,还非常有条理。

我考之前把这个提纲发给我一同学让她好好背。

现在拿出来和大家分享,还准备发一份给那个作文老师,以提高他的教学质量。

二. 精华部分---万能123找茬1. 从整体来说:开头结尾不是最重点,中间部分才是重中之重2. 就中间部分来说:具体的语言不是最重点,攻击思路才是重中之重结论就是,攻击思路是重中之重,所以万能123找茬才是重中之重,比万能123模板(语言文字)及开头结尾给重要。

三.精华部分的注释这里是注释:(对照序号看)① 一因为此调查或研究没有提到样本sample,所以可以攻击其样本可能不具代表性,例如1。

样本太小不具代表性2。

样本特殊不具代表性二有了样本仍然可攻击样本没有代表性,例如1。

样本太小不具代表性2。

样本的倾向性问题,即某类人群比其他多数人更愿意参加调查或研究三没有论据的声称其实是很万能的,多用于攻击一些不是调查也不是研究的论据(具体可参照我的例文)② 一这个嘛虽然被某些新东方老师分为3大类,其实本质还是一样的,就是一个群体的特征推到另一个群体身上。

2.It is possible that fees paid by movie studios for screenplays will decrease in the futurerelative to those for book rights.这是有可能的,电影工作室付给剧本的钱,相比于书,在未来会减少。

3.The argument fails to rule out the possibility that a writer engage in both types of writing aswell as other types.论述没能列出可能性,即同时参与两种形式以及其他的形式写作的作者。

4.In any event, the advertisement provides no justification for the mutually exclusive choice thatit imposes on the writer.在任何情况下,广告没有提供互斥的选择的理由,而这个理由是被强加在作者身上的。

GRE英语作文考试ARGUMENT的范文

GRE英语作文考试ARGUMENT的GRE英语作文考试ARGUMENT的范文Discuss how well reasoned you find this argument. The following is a letter to the editor of a local newspaper.As a local merchant, I wish to support the development of a ski resort in the state park north of our township. Along with many other merchants who favor the proposal by Ski the Slopes, Incorporated, I would, of course, experience a growth in my business. But I also know how much more prosperous, not to mention lively and interesting, our community would be if tourism increased. Since the main opposition comes from a few environmentalists who do not even live in this community, I see no reason to give in to their views. The First National Bank has finally researched the project and agreed to fund it. As a result, I see no reason to delay development of the resort.Environmentalists are people who advocate the preservation of the natural environment.The Trash-Site Safety Council has recently conducted a statewide study of possible harmful effects of garbage sites on the health of people living near the sites. A total of five sites and 300 people were examined. The study revealed, on average, only a small statistical correlation between the proximity of homes to garbage sites and the incidence of unexplained rashes among people living in these homes. Furthermore, although it is true that people living near the largest trash sites had a slightly higher incidence of the rashes, there was otherwise no correlation between the size of the garbage sites and people s health. Therefore, the council is pleased to announce that the current system of garbage sites does not pose a significant health hazard.We see no need to restrict the size of such sites in our state or to place any restrictions on the number of homes built near the sites.。

GRE考试作文Argument150详解

题目Argument150The following is a letter to the editor of an environmental magazine."The decline in the numbers of amphibians worldwide clearly indicates the global pollution of water and air. Two studies of amphibians in YosemiteNational Park in California confirm my conclusion. In 1915 there were seven species of amphibians in the park, and there were abundant numbers of each species. However, in 1992 there were only four species of amphibians observed in the park, and the numbers of each species were drastically reduced. The decline in Yosemite has been blamed on the introduction of trout into the park's waters, which began in 1920 (trout are known to eat amphibian eggs). But the introduction of trout cannot be the real reason for the Yosemite decline because it does not explain the worldwide decline."直译如下:全球范围内两栖动物数量的减少证明全球范围内空气和水的污染。

GRE Argument范文

GRE Argument范文

NO4 IssueThe best way to teach is to praise positive actions and ignore negative ones.The speaker maintains that it is preferable for teachers to pay more attention to students' positive actions rather than their flaws. Given compliments can stimulate students' enthusiasm of learning, I agree insofar as give more encouragement to students, undue neglection£¨¿ÉÒÔÕâÑùÓã© of their flaws, however, may also defeat the original purpose of the education.It is universally acknowledged that interest is the best teacher of students for only by developing a habit of pursuing knowledge should a student go further in his or her study, therefore, giving more compliments to students are good for the teenagers. First of all, by praising their good behaviour,(un) a congenial and pleasant context will be formed, in which will benefit students' physical and mental health. Furthermore, since students are born to curious and tend to ask questions, giving them compliments when they raise good questions will also enhance their creativity and ingenuity. And it is those qualities that help them go further in their career. In addition, students will become more confident and self-assured when more compliments are given, this, of course will help them to communicate well with other students.As for ignoring negative actions, I agree that minor flaws, which have little detriments to their studies, can be ignored, for it is a normal thing for human to make mistakes, let alone the curious£¨Öظ´Óôʣ¡£© students. And teachers should not scold students for every false answer or premature act. Nevertheless, turning a blind eye to all of their mistakes, may also cause some problems. First and foremost, too much compliments will make them patronizing, which may make them stop going on their study. Second, if teacher do not point out their mistakes when seeing them, students will not learn from their mistakes, which are regarded vital significant in the development of one's growth. All of these will jeopardize students' healthy growth.As far as I am concerned, both compliments and condemnations are essential in students' education, and two of them should be appropriately and evenhandedly administrated. Only in this way, will the students develop a good sense of wonder and curiosity.С½á£ºacknowledge universally when ÀÏÊÇ´ò´í£¡×ÖÊýÒÀ¾ÉÆ«ÉÙ£¬Õâƪʱ¼äûÓÃÍêÄãµÄ×÷ÎÄʵÔÚÌ«²îÁË£¡ÐèÒªÒ»¸öÌáÉý£¡Ç×£¡。

GRE作文之Argument开头

GRE作文之Argument开头

争取高分,从第一印象开始---被人忽视的argument开头本帖最后由irvine666 于2009-2-25 16:07 编辑浪迹作文版也有差不多快3个月了,不断的从前人那里拿出资料和心得来充实自己而不主动的贡献一点东西,时常也有那么一些“不劳而获的感觉真好,难怪贪婪是罪”的想法。

然而3个月的100 percent的准备,(我相信这个时间跨度比这里绝大多数板油的准备GRE 时间还长了)也让我有了不少的个人心得,我一直认为,有了想法却窝藏是一件很浪费的事情,我们的爷爷的爷爷的爷爷….说的好:“一个想法的分享,等于千万个灵感的诞生”。

我不敢说下面我要写的东西究竟符合ETS的兴趣与否 --- 实际上ETS的兴趣到底是什么,到底喜欢怎么样的文章,到底扣分都扣在什么些地方,我想除了ETS自己,没有任何人能够说的清楚 --- 然而作为弱势群体的考生,哪怕只有1%的可能性被扣分,也应当付出100%的努力去避免,这个才是取胜和高分之道,同时也期望着各位看了我的这些想法以后,对Argument能有一些启示,那么我就真的没有白写这么个东西。

陆陆续续的Argument也写掉了20来篇了,从最开始的照着范文写直到抛开范文红着脸来憋,每一个字感觉都是一种折磨,再到现在头痛时间的问题,一些很有趣的问题就在我脑中不断的盘旋和缠绕,其中的第一个就是开头问题。

如何开头?如何在短的时间内吸引到阅卷人的良好印象?曾经当我在对如何下笔开始argument一筹莫展之际,翻遍了AW精华区,也没有找到答案,当时一度令我很沮丧:大家都不屑于讨论的一个东西,居然就把我给难倒了,我也别去考什么GRE了,回家去农妇山泉有点田吧。

直到最近当我回头,总结掉我所写过的所有argument以后,我才发现了一个草率的开头可能是绝大多数XDF型同学们忽略掉的一个最大的扣分点。

一个开头对于行文有什么帮助?Argument的开头到底要表达一些什么信息?开头,类似于每一段话的TS一样,应当是全文的TS,一个好的开头不仅能够让ETS老师迅速的抓住你的思维结构和逻辑论证过程,而且能够使自己的下文论述更加充分。

GRE作文argument写作技巧介绍

GRE作文argument写作技巧介绍

GRE作文argument写作技巧介绍GRE写作部分,想要写出一篇高分作文,同学们还是需要苦下功夫。

那么在具体的备考中,又有哪些写作技巧能够减少我们的备考障碍,更好地拿到写作高分呢?下面小编为大家整理了详细的内容,供大家参考,希望帮助考生更好地提分。

GRE作文argument写作技巧介绍GRE作文中的Argument是分析一个论证过程,所以考生需要写出一篇驳论。

由于题目所给的Argument一般是不完整因而不可信的,所以我们的文章是以削弱为主要形式的评论型文章什么是Argument?Argument译为论证过程,指的是作者为了说服他人而使用一个前提——结论式结构得出自己观点的推理过程一个完整的Argument包含以下四个要素l Premise——前提,能直接退出结论的一个条件l Assumption——假设,为了使论证更可信而额外设定的条件l Evidence——论据,为了使论证更可信而引用的客观事实l Conclusion——结论,作者最终用于说服他人而得出的观点、立场一个说服力较强的,完整的argument通常包含多个Assumption+Evidence来支持文章整体结构。

为什么要写Analysis?从ARGUMENT结构角度来讲:我们题库中的Argument文章一般是Assumption和Evidence大量缺失甚至出现错误,导致原文的结论很容易无法得出的文章。

GRE-Argument-满分范文5篇

ArgumentSample 1In this argument the author employs a variety of evidence about Paleans, including their geographical isolation and the discovery of a basket, to argue that Palean baskets could have been made by non-Palean cultures. We may accept part of the author’s claim regarding the Paleans, but in the absence of some critical evidence, we cannot accept the conclusion that the Paleans have no means of transporting one of their baskets to other region.In the first place, the author assumes that the Paleans could not have reached Lithos because no Palean boat has been found. However, the author is treating a lack of proof that the Paleans could have possessed some kind of boat as sufficient proof that they did not possess any such vehicles at all. From the passage we are only informed that Palean boats “were not found〞, but the mere fact that no boat found currently could not fully illustrate that the Paleans did not have boats. We need concrete evidence to show that the Paleans did not master the skill of shipbuilding.Granted that the Paleans did possess no boats, we still need evidence to prove that the basket could not have arrived in Lithos by other means. Although the Brim River is deep and broad at present, it might be shallower and narrower at Palean time, or at least some sections of the river were less deep and broad at that time. If so, the Paleans could have crossed the river without boat. Some archaeological and geological records or documents about the condition of the Brim River at ancient time might be useful for evaluating the argument.Assuming that the river was also deep and broad in ancient time and can be crossed only by boat, there is a possibility that some vehicles were in the possession of a second culture with whom the Palean people kept in contact. The second culture might have brought the discovered basket to Lithos during trading or other activities. Also possibly, the basket may have been brought to Lithos by some other people latterly after the disappearance of the Paleans, or may have drifted to the site due to geological accidents such as a flood. The author should provide evidence to show that Paleans had no significant contact with other cultures who possessed boats, and that the basket could not be carried to the site through other methods such as trading or some accidents. We still cannot rule out the possibility that the baskets were unique to Palean culture without such information.In sum, the conclusion is hastily reached. Before the claim that other cultures could have produced so-called Palean baskets is accepted, the author should provide concrete evidence to show that Paleans were never capable of building boats. The author also needs to rule out other possible ways by which the basket could travel to other places.In the argument the arguer points out that Crust Copper Company (CCC) has purchased a vast of land in West Fredonia and that mining here will inevitably lead to tremendous pollution. To avoid such environmental problems, the arguer suggests that boycott towards products produced by CCC will be an effective measure. Well-intentioned the arguer may be, several unwarranted assumptions may render the boycott unnecessary or ineffective.First, the underlying assumption that the deterioration of environment and disturbance to endangered animals will inevitably occur is open to doubt. Ten thousand square miles are, without any doubt, so large an area that almost make up the total territory of New York City, there is likelihood that only a very small proportion of the land is used for mining. Furthermore, with the advanced technology of waste disposal and environmental-friendly recycling, the pollution, if any, can be so insignificant that almost has no negative effect to the environment. Even if the exploration is heavy, the arguer does not inform us to what extent the mining areas and the habitat of endangered species overlap. If they locate far away from each other, the mining would have little effect to local animals. Without taking these factors into consideration, the arguer could not successfully convince us that CCC’s mining process will bring about horrible results, and the boycott would be totally unnecessary in this case.Second, the feasibility of the arguer’s pro posal can also be cast doubt on. The proposal could be smoothly carried out only if the consumers can reliably distinguish products that are made with CCC’s copper. We all know that only the brand of the final producer will be engraved to a product. For instance, if a copper lock is manufactured, consumers can only identify the brand of the lock company. It is unlikely that a nonprofessional consumer can tell the material supplier of a certain product. Even assuming that consumers can effectively recognize copper products made with CCC’s copper, and that the vast majority of such consumers can be gathered by certain means, whether all of them are willing to cooperate in the boycott is still not guaranteed. It is highly possible that most consumers care more about the quality and cost of a product while little about environmental problems. If the consumers cannot distinguish products using CCC’s copper, or they have no interest in the boycott, the proposal would be meaningless at all, let alone prevent environmental problems.In conclusion, the argument is unpersuasive and the arguer should provide additional information to demonstrate that CCC will cause a disastrous effect on the environment of West Fredonia once its mining plan is carried out. The arguer also needs to prove that the proposed boycott is not only practically feasible, but also sufficient and necessary for the arguer’s purpose.In this argument the manager suggests that Rialto must offer same features as Apex, a newly opened theater, to attract moviegoers. The manager describes many fancy functions featured by Apex and the dissatisfaction of moviegoers about the high price of new movies. However, merely these facts could not prove that the proposed action will guarantee Rialto’s share of the market.A foremost question is: whether Apex was really a great success? We are not informed about the actual profit and the number of moviegoers of Apex. It is possible that the costs of these fashionable features are so high that the ticket prices of Apex are higher than other theaters, which will further prevent moviegoers on a tight budget from going to it, or that the ticket income of Apex remains low although it had featured those functions.Granted that Apex has gained great profits, we may still ask that whether the success resulted from those new features. Many other factors would also influence people’s choice on a theater. For example, people would be concerned more about the distance of the theater from their houses. Meanwhile, whether the lack of these features has caused a decreased share of moviegoers for Rialto is open to doubt. Perhaps the total number of residents in down town area was decreasing recently, and therefore Rialto could not attract as many people as before.Another question that should be addressed is the comparability of the two theaters. As we know, many factors would make them quite different from each other: their locations, the types of movie they mainly feature, the ticket price, etc. Any one of these factors would make the measures less effective in Rialto as in Apex. The manager cannot convince us that Rialto could gain profits by simply copying the features of Apex.Furthermore, we may question the reliability of the survey. We could not be sure if the respondents of the survey are representative of the overall population of the city and constitute a large number of people. Besides, granted that the respondents’ opinion could represent that of our general residents, Rialto could take other actions as response, such as featuring some formerly-released movies with lower price.It is understandable that a theater should struggle for its survival. But before the manager could provide complete information about the actual profits of Apex, and show clear evidence that Apex has attracted many moviegoers because of its new features, we could not hastily conclude that providing these features at Rialto would secure its future prosper.Basing on the assumption that farmers are receiving excessive profits on increased supply of milk, the author recommends Batavia government to regulate retail milk prices. Admittedly, it is the responsibility of the government to ensure the stability of the market, however, several questions must be addressed before we could determine whether the regulation will be necessary and effective for lowering milk price.A critical assumption of the argument is that the farmers are receiving unreasonable profits, which is unwarranted before several factors have been considered. A foremost question is that whether the number of dairy farms could accurately reflect the supply of milk, for there is no necessary relationship between them. It is possible that the average milk supply of each single farm has dropped and therefore the total supply would not increase. It is also possible that a great proportion of milk produced has been processed to other dairy products or has been exported. The milk supply on market will decrease in these cases.Granted that the supply of milk did increase during the past decade, we may well ask that whether the prices of milk are increasing all over the country. The author provides only one sample----the Excello market to illustrate the variation of milk price, but many factors may render the situation at the market unrepresentative of the national trends. Perhaps the supply of milk in the region where the market locates was relatively lower than national average, or the milk production is much more costly here due to some geographic factors. Any one of these possibilities would make the higher milk price in Excllo totally a normal phenomenon.Even if the prices of milk were also doubled throughout the country, just as happened in Excello, the author overlooks a myriad of economic factors that would result in the increase. Consider, for example, the cost of milk production and transportation might have increased as well during the same period, or perhaps the supply of milk could not meet the demand in spite of an increased supply. The author also needs to inform us how much did the price of milk actually increase after adjustment for inflation. Without accounting for these factors, the author could not convince us that farmers have received excessive profits and that the regulation is indeed necessary.Finally, even if the author can successfully address all the questions foregoing, it is unjustifiable to conclude that the regulation of retail milk prices could ensure an adequate supply of milk and therefore, a fair price. It is likely that the regulation would reduce the profits of farmers; they might be less interested in producing milk, or will produce less milk as a response. If so, adopting the author’s recommend ation will actually lead to inadequate supply of milk rather than the optimistic result expected by the author.Undoubtedly, the author’s intention of keeping the market stable and ensuring fair price of milk is justified. But to convince us that the regulation is necessary to ensure a reasonable milk price and adequate supply, the author must substantiate the assumption that the profits received by farmers are undeserved and that the regulation is sufficient for ensuring lower price. Hastily carrying out such regulation would actually pose negative effects on the supply of milk.The fewer sick days and lower diagnosis of stress-related illness in Leeville may, to some extent, indicate better health status of residents. But the situation could also be explained by many other factors. It is too hasty for the Chamber of Commerce to conclude that it is the relaxed pace of life that brings those health benefits.First of all, the Chamber implies that Leeville residents are in satisfying health condition, which serves as a foremost premise of the argument. However, the number of sick days and the diagnosis of stress-related illness do not necessarily indicate the health condition of residents. The fewer sick days may result from strict restrictions on sick leaves at Leeville factories; or perhaps the workers will receive harsher punishment once they take too many sick leaves, thus they will be unable to take more sick leaves as a result. Another explanation is that the workers might be unwilling to be absent from work for certain reasons. Similarly, the fewer diagnosis of stress-related illness could also be explained by other reasons. It is possible that people in Leeville are not willing to visit doctors for these diseases, or maybe there are some differences in the diagnostic criteria of the disease in the two cities. If the criterion or definition of the disease is more rigorous in Leeville than in Masonton, then it is conceivable that the incidence of such disease in Masonton will be higher. In this case, the diagnosis of this illness could not accurately reflect the actual level of stress of residents, let alone their actual level health.Granted that Leeville residents are living healthier lives, physically and mentally, there are still many other factors, rather than the relaxed pace of life suggested by the Chamber, that could contribute to the situation. The myriad factors might include better environment and weather, healthier life style in Leeville, which will lead to good health condition and less illness. It is also possible that the working condition and work ethic in Leeville factories are better than those in Masonton, or Leeville has harmonious neighborhoods, which could explain the lower level of mental stress.As commonly known, a relaxed pa ce of life often promotes people’s health status, but we cannot conclude that the better health of Leeville residents is also the result of their pace of life. The Chamber should consider and rule out all other possibilities before we could be convinced that the relaxed lifestyle is the actual and only explanation for the health condition of Leeville residents.。

The following appeared in a letter from a firm providing investment advice to a client.
"Homes in the northeastern United States, where winters are typically cold, have traditionally used oil as their major fuel for heating. Last year that region experienced 90 days with below-average temperatures, and local weather forecasters throughout the region predict that this weather pattern will continue for several more years. Furthermore, many new homes have been built in this region during the past year. Because of these developments, we predict an increased demand for heating oil and recommend investment in Consolidated Industries, one of whose major business operations is the retail sale of home heating oil."
1> 90多天的冬季看似很久,可以以前的天气情况没有提,要是一般的冬季都比这个时间长的话,那么这个冬天就是暖冬了,自然油料的使用量可能就不会提高,相反还会下降,而且泛泛的指出是在零下,没有说零下多少度,要是很冷的温度只持续了一小段时间,而大多数的时间都是比零度低一点点的话,那么温度总体上还是提高的,油料也是没有用处的>
2> 很多的住宅新建起来,不见得很多人都会立刻搬进去居住,可能是房子的质量不好,也可能是人们的工资负担不起那里昂贵的房价> 又或者交通不便利,环境不好等因素。

In this letter, the author predict that an increased demand for heating and recommend investment in Consolidated Industrial, one of whose major business operation is the retail sale of home heating oil. To strengthen his opinion, the author provide a statistic of 90 days with below-normal temperature last heating season. And climate forecasters predict that this weather pattern will continue for several more years. The author also cites supporting evidence that many new homes are being built in the region in response to recent population growth. At first glance, the prediction and the recommendation might be somehow reasonable, but close scrutiny reveals that it contains several unconvincing assumptions and is therefore unpersuasive.
First of all,the author observes a correlation between the 90 days with below-temperatures and an increased demand of heating oil , and then states that the former is the cause of the latter, which might not be the case. The author fails to consider that whether 90 days with below-temperatures is a long period comparing with past years. It is possible that the days with below-temperatures are usually beyond 90 days. Under this circumstance, the last year’s winter
cannot be consider as a extremely cold winter while it was a warmer one. Hence, the increased demand is less possible to occur.
Second, more homes are being built in the region in response to recent population growth. The author makes an unwarranted assumption that population growth lead people to build new homes here. It is possible that some people are attracted by the scenery here and therefore rent homes in the region and they may left when the cold winter comes. Moreover, the author fails to consider whether those new homes are going to use oil for heating. It is possible that those new-built homes apply alternative energy source instead of oil fuel. Without ruling out these and other possible causes, the author cannot reasonably get a conclusion that the demand for heating oil will increased.
To sum up, the argument, while it seems logical at first, have several flaws as discussed above. To strengthen it the author must provide evidence to prove the extremely cold winters are truly exist and will last for a long time. The author must also show that those new-built housed will definitely cause the increment of oil fuel.。
