　　狗主回忆：

　　52. 第一篇是一个consolidated的school offer很多course。相比另外一个private school。但是升学率比private school低很多。所以作者说，应该把多出来的course 砍掉，这样升学率就高了，而且省了钱。

　　54. AA： 一个高中开了200门课程但是升学率却没同条街上的只开80门的私立学校高，于是该高中就想通过砍掉一半的课程种类来提高升学率并且省钱。(太多攻击点了，考场上打字的时候真是忍不住想吐槽啊

　　老套货 AA 一家大的high school有200多门课程，但街角的private school只有80几门课程，a larger portion of students of this school go to the college. So the big high school should cut its course numbers to raise the teaching performance. As a consequence, the school can XXXX and save more tax cost.

　　LZ 写了三点，over simplification, 尼玛谁说去college了就水平高啊，这两个有毛关系啊。。 false analogy，尼玛谁说人家学校升学率高了你学人家你也能搞好呀，人家比你声誉好地理位置好生源好不行啊~ 还有一个LZ就直接写了。尼玛你不是想要teaching performance吗，和你save tax cost到底有半毛钱关系咩?

　　AA： The Consolidate high school has more than 200 courses, and a smaller high school nearby the street has only 80 courses. However the number of the graduating seniors of the smaller high school are more than that of the Consolidated High School. By eliminating the courses as well as focusing on the basic curriculum, the Consolidated High School could improve the performance of the students.

　　原文/考古：

　　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.”(此题没有中文翻译和Flaw，自己补上的，大家可以讨论一下哈)

　　SC这个高中有超过200中不同的课程，而另一个更小的私立学校之提供80个不同课程，但是那个学校的大学入学率更高。所以SC觉得应该减少至少一半的课程来提高入学率并减少赋税(前文都没有提过tax，这里突然提了一下，可能学校的course越多，tax越多吧。米国真是奇怪～)

　　无因果联系：course的数量和入学率没有因果关系

　　Gratuitous assumption：错误假设是因为小学校course少入学率才高，而直接与入学率有关的只有考试分数而已

　　他因攻击：小学校学生更努力，师资力量更好等原因同样可以使入学率更高

　　Insufficient example:只是一个小学校的例子并不能说明只要course少入学率就高

　　例文

　　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.
