　　gre argument 159题目：

　　The nation of Claria covers a vast physical area. But despite wide geographic differences, many(1) citizens are experiencing rising costs of electricity. A recent study of household electric costs in Claria found that families who cooled their houses with fans alone spent more on electricity than did families using air conditioners alone for cooling. However, those households that reported using both fans and air conditioners spent less(3) on electricity than those households that used either fans or air conditioners alone(2). Thus, the citizens of Claria should follow the study&aposs recommendation and use both air conditioners and fans in order to save money on electricity(4).

　　提纲：

　　(1)The author does not point out what fraction of citizens of Claria experienced rising costs of electricity.

　　(2)The argument does not consider other possible differences between these groups of families, e.g. the cost of electricity, geographical factors, etc.

　　(3)The author fails to establish a causal relationship between using both appliances simultaneously and the lower expenditure on electricity.

　　(4)The author unfairly assumes that the proposed action is both sufficient and necessarily for saving money on electricity.
