　　gre argument 161题目：

　　In a study of reading habits of Leeville citizens conducted by the University of Leeville, most respondents(1) said they prerred literary classics as reading material. However, a follow-up study(4,5) conducted by the same researchers found that the type of book most frequently checked out(2) of each of the public libraries(6) in Leeville was the mystery novel(3). Therore, it can be concluded that the respondents in the first study had misrepresented their reading habits(7).

　　提纲：

　　(1)We do not know how many, and what kind of citizens responded to the survey, thus the representativeness of the result is open to doubt.

　　(2)The frequency of certain type of book being checked out from the public libraries is not a good indication of what kind of reading material do citizens prer.

　　(3)The author does not analyze to what extent the literary classics and mystery novels mentioned in the argument overlap.

　　(4)The author fails to provide evidence to show that the result of the follow-up study is representative of all-time reading habits of Leeville citizens.

　　(5)We do not know how long is the interim period between the two studies, many conditions may change after sufficient long time.

　　(6)The author unfairly assumes that the respondents in the first study borrow most of their reading materials from public libraries.

　　(7)The author fails to consider other explanation that could explain the discrepancy between the respondents’ answer and the result of the follow-up study, e.g. if the respondents were forthright, if they correctly understood the survey’s question, etc.
