GMAT Argument 85重新选题
写作题目
收起The following appeared as part of a company memorandum:
“Adopting an official code of ethics regarding business practices may in the long run do our company more harm than good in the public eye. When one of our competitors received unfavorable publicity for violating its own code of ethics, it got more attention from the media than it would have if it had had no such code. Rather than adopt an official code of ethics, therefore, we should instead conduct a publicity campaign that stresses the importance of protecting the environment and assisting charitable organizations.”
Discuss how well reasoned you find this argument. In your discussion be sure to analyze the line of reasoning and the use of evidence in the argument. For example, you may need to consider what questionable assumptions underlie the thinking and what alternative explanations or counterexamples might weaken the conclusion. You can also discuss what sort of evidence would strengthen or refute the argument, what changes in the argument would make it more logically sound, and what, if anything, would help you better evaluate its conclusion.

采用正式的商业操作道德条例从长远看对我公司在公众眼中的形象弊大于利。当我们的一个竞争者由于违反了他自己的道德条例从而得到公众指责时,他会从媒体那里得到比没有条例时更多的关注。因此,与其采用正式的道德条例,我们不如开展一场强调保护环境和帮助慈善组织的公众运动。
