　　难易程度：★★★★

　　题目题材：地产，商业

　　题目：

　　The following appeared in a memo from the president of a company that builds and sells new homes in Steel City.

　　"Over the past five years, the population of Steel City has increased by more than 20 percent, and family incomes in Steel City have risen much faster than the national average(4). Nationwide(7), sales of houses priced above $150,000 have increased more than have sales of lower-priced houses(5). Such data indicate that we should make changes in our business to increase company profits(6). First, we should build fewer low-priced houses than we did last year and focus instead on building houses designed to sell at above $150,000(2,3). Second, we should hire additional workers so that we can build a larger total number of houses than we did last year(1)."

　　提纲：

　　(1)The argument relies on an unsubstantiated as­sumption that area demand for new housing will support additional home construction in the foreseeable future.

　　(2)Granted that more residents will purchase new houses, we cannot guarantee that they will choose expensive houses.

　　(3)The speaker relies on other tenuous assumptions that area residents interested in buying new homes can afford homes priced over $150,000.

　　(4)We do not know the base amount of the population and average family income in Steel City, thus the increase may not support the proposed home construction.

　　(5)The speaker does not provide accurate data regarding the sales of expensive houses and lower-priced houses respectively and we cannot evaluate the actual market of each kind of houses.

　　(6)The speaker does not take into account some negative fects of the proposal such as the cost, difficulty in selling expensive homes, etc.

　　(7)Nationwide statistics can say little about the demand and prerence of the local residents.

　　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。
