10月GMAT作文机经：变客户群.

　　转眼10月已经过去了一大半，也迎来了每个月GMAT机经换库的日子，10月GMAT机经换库了，现在就由小编来为大家整理十月份的GMAT作文机经整理，下面是关于GMAT作文机经的相关问题，希望对大家有所帮助。

　　【原始】一个公司的FiberFlakes cereal之前是面向全家销售的，原先买这种cereal的女性客户有64%， 然后发现在过去两年中，这种cereal的儿童客户从19%上涨到25%， 公司决定改变现在的packaging 和advertising 方案，从面向全家销售变成excessively to children， 从而从众多的竞争者中脱颖而出， 结论是：公司觉得这样可以提高这种cereal的sales 和market share

　　【考古】

　　考古 V1 某F cereal 原来主要的消费者是成年女性，大概占65%，现在发现一个趋势是近几年小孩子吃这玩意的比例上升了，因此认为应该把这种cereal的营销口号从为家庭准备改为为儿童准备，可以利用这波趋势增加销售，同时可以回避跟那些同样为家庭准备的同类产品的竞争。

　　V2一个公司叫做Filake经营cereal line.过去一直65%消费者主要是adult women。但是过去两年，children increase16%to25%.因此，公司的新策略是转移正对children.这个公司产品现在的产品包装是对whole family. 别的公司也是对whole family.因此这个公司准备生产children&aposs line这样只有它一个公司生产这种东西可以避免竞争力和增加销售

　　【参考思路】

　　1) 无关假设

　　儿童数量的增加 不代表sales 的增长， 人家小孩可能根本不爱吃这一样的麦片粥

　　2 无关假设

　　(你换了包装 就一定能够盈利， 换包装的成本，和广告成本可能大于这种策略产生的利润)

　　3 错误类别

　　别的公司策略不一定适合你，而且别的公司都开始瞄准小孩了，竞争就激烈了)

　　34. 删课程

　　【原始】一个The Consolidated高中有100多门课，然后一个smaller private school只有80多门课，但是这个更小的私立高中在过去几年里有更高比例的学生去了大学。所以有人建议这个The Consolidated高中应该删除一些课，更focus on basic courses，这样也有助于他们save tax dollars.

　　【原题】The following appeared in an editorial from a newspaper serving the town of Saluda.

　　“The Saluda Consolidated High School offers over 200 different courses from which its students can choose. A much smaller private school down the street offers a basic curriculum of only 80 different courses, but it consistently sends a higher proportion of its graduating seniors on to college than Consolidated does. By eliminating at least half of the courses offered there and focusing on a basic curriculum, we could improve student performance at Consolidated and also save many tax dollars.”

　　Discuss how well reasoned . . . etc.

　　【参考思路】

　　1.Gratuitous assumption 无关假设

　　(number of courses 和 better performance )

　　2. False causal relationship

　　(the proportion of students is a overall measure of student performance)

　　3.错误类比

　　(一家私立学校成功，不代表你也能成功)

　　【参考范文】

　　In this editorial the author recommends that Saluda’s Consolidated High School eliminate half of its 200 courses and focus primarily on basic curriculum in order to improve student performance and save tax revenues. The author’s recommendation is problematic for several reasons.

　　To begin with, the author assumes that the only relevant difference between Consolidated and the private school is the number of courses offered by each. However, other relevant differences between the schools might account for the difference in the proportion of their graduates who go on to college. For example, the private school’s students might be selected from a pool of gifted or exceptional students, or might have to meet rigorous admission standards whereas Consolidated’s students might be drawn from the community at large with little or no qualification for admission.

　　Next, the author assumes that the proportion of students who go on to college is an overall measure of student performance. While this is a tempting assumption, its truth is by no means obvious. If student excellence is narrowly dined in terms of the student’s ability to gain access to college, this assumption is somewhat reasonable. However, given a broader conception of student excellence that takes into account student’s ability to learn and apply their knowledge to new situations, its is not obvious that college admission is reliable indicator of performance. For example, students in non-academic disciplines could conceivably perform at high levels within these disciplines but nevertheless be unable to meet college admission standards.

　　Finally, the author assumes that savings in tax revenues will result from the reduced costs of funding the paired-down curriculum. This is not necessarily true. For example, it could turn out that both programs serve the same number of students and require the same number of classrooms and teacher.

　　In conclusion, the author has not made a convincing case for the recommendation to eliminate courses at Consolidated and focus on a basic curriculum. To strengthen the conclusion the author would have to provide evidence that Consolidated and the private school were sufficiently similar to warrant the analogy between them. Moreover, the relationship between student performance and college admission and the mechanism whereby savings in tax revenues would be accomplished would have to be clarified.
