GRE Argument 159重新选题
写作题目
收起The following appeared in a letter to the editor of the Balmer Island Gazette.
"The population on Balmer Island increases to 100,000 during the summer months. To reduce the number of accidents involving mopeds and pedestrians, the town council of Balmer Island plans to limit the number of mopeds rented by each of the island's six moped rental companies from 50 per day to 30 per day during the summer season. Last year, the neighboring island of Torseau enforced similar limits on moped rentals and saw a 50 percent reduction in moped accidents. We predict that putting these limits into effect on Balmer Island will result in the same reduction in moped accidents."
Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the prediction 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 prediction.

在夏季的几个月B岛的人口增加至100000人。为减少与助动车和行人有关的事故,B岛的市议会计划限制助动车数量,做法是在夏季将6家助动车出租公司的出租助动车数由每天50量减到每天30辆。去年,相邻的T岛实施了类似的限制,助动车事故减少了50%。我们预计在B岛实施此限制也会带来同样的效果。
