　　gre argument 148题目：

　　The following appeared in the editorial section of Monroetown&aposs local newspaper.

　　"Mayor Brown was recently re-elected by a clear majority of 52 percent of Monroetown&aposs voters. Her re-election, however, does not show that most people in our town favored Mayor Brown&aposs proposal for tax reduction over that of her opponent, Mr. Greene, who proposed raising taxes(4) to improve education. It has been shown that voters nationwide(2) tend to re-elect people already in office, regardless of candidates&apos proposals(1). In fact, a local survey after the election showed most people in Monroetown disagreed with Mayor Brown&aposs proposal. Clearly most people in Monroetown favor improving education and therore approve of Mr. Greene&aposs proposal(3) despite the fact that they did not vote for him."

　　提纲：

　　(1)The author fails to demonstrate that Mayor Brown’s re-election was not because people favored her proposal, but because of people’s voting habit mentioned in the argument.

　　(2)The fact that voters nationwide tend to re-elect people already in office does not indicate that voters in Monroetown will also have such behavior.

　　(3)Granted that people disagree with Mayor Brown’s proposal, it does not follow that they would favor improving education.

　　(4)Granted that people in Monroetown favor improving education, we could not hastily infer that they would approve Mr. Greene’s proposal which proposed education improvements through raising taxes.

　　注：题目中括号里的数字表明这句话体现的是提纲中第几号缺陷。
