　　Argument221-The following appeared in the editorial section of a student newspaper.

　　"In a recent survey, most students who were studying beginning Russian(2) gave higher course-evaluation ratings(1) to classes taught by non-native Russian speakers than to classes taught by native Russian speakers. The reason that the non-native speakers were better teachers of Russian is easy to see: the non-native speakers learned Russian later in life themselves, and so they have a better understanding of how the language can be taught fectively(3).

These findings suggest that Dura-Sock can increase its profits(4,6) by discontinuing its use of the "Endure" manufacturing process(5)."

Among workers aged 18 to 29, 27 percent said that they are more productive in the presence of their immediate supervisor, compared to 12 percent for those aged 30 or over, and only 8 percent for those aged 50 or over(2). Clearly, if our printing company(3) hires mainly older employees(4), we will increase productivity and save money because of the reduced need for supervisors."
