　　1. B3. The following appeared in a memorandum from the information technology department of a major advertising firm:

　　“The more ficient a firm’s employees are, the more profitable that firm will be. Improvements in a firm’s information technology hardware and software are a proven way to increase the ficiency of employees who do the majority of their work on computers. Therore, if our firm invests in the most powerful and advanced information technology available, employee productivity will be maximized. This strategy ensures that every dollar spent on enhanced information technology will help to increase our firm’s profit margins.” 5次

　　V1：说Jetsam Software Design hasn&apost made profits for long time, and it should follow the example of the lead in the auto industry that replaces its expensive, full-time employees with cheaper, temporary employees. 然后说in auto industry how successful such a shift is, so JSD should make the same change for the long-term success and stability of the company.

　　V2：一家software desgin company为了cut budget, 决定switch 25% 的 workforce to temporary labor. 作者给了两个理由， 1. temporary workers 工资低， 没有福利， 会降低成本。 2. 汽车行业用同样的方法实现了复苏。 最后进一步说， 采取这种办法以后会有short-term financial gain 和 long-term 的stability.

　　V3：某人呼吁某software company 用auto industry 的strategy，因为auto industry把permanent员工换成了temporary 员工，所以profit增加了。Software company也可以这样，因为temporary员工工资低。预计如果software company采用这种方法，短期利润会增高，长期会取得stability

　　V1:一个地方的房价在过去5年翻了2倍，股票价格下降了，所以现在人们应该投资买房子而不是投资买股票

　　V2: 一个地产中介的宣传册子说：房屋价格过去五年翻了一番，但是股票平均价格是一直再跌。所以现在是投资房屋市场的最好时候。并且，买了房子后住在能够升值的 房子里享受，可以提高生活质量，这个买股票是更不会有的。

　　V3：在某地区的过去5年，average home prices have almost doubled while average stock prices in the national mkt have declined. 然后他说你如果买房子在未来五年也能achieve similar profits. 之后又说买房子好，因为买了房子你还可以用，但是买股票你也不能用。所以他说all residents of the city should buy homes.

　　(考古) Now is the perfect time to buy a house in our city. Over the past five years, average home prices in our region have nearly doubled. But average stock prices in the national stock market have actually declined over the same period. So homeowners have seen an increase in value for their housing investment during the last five years that far exceeds what they could have made by investing in the stock market. Our city’s resident can surely achieve a similar profit over the next five years. Furthermore, if residents invest in a home, they can enjoy the use of the home while its value increases, whereas money invested in stocks would not contribute to their quality of life in the same way that owning a home would. Therore, all the residents of our city should invest their money in a home.

　　4 92. The following is taken from an editorial in a local newspaper.

　　“Over the past decade, the price per pound of citrus fruit has increased substantially. Eleven years ago, Megamart charged 5 cents apiece for lemons, but today it commonly charges over 30 cents apiece. In only one of these last eleven years was the weather unfavorable for growing citrus crops. Evidently, then, citrus growers have been responsible for the excessive increase in the price of citrus fruit, and strict pricing regulations are needed to prevent them from continuing to inflate prices.” 4次

　　当地报纸的社论：

　　过去的10年里，桔类水果的价格实际上上升了。11年前，Megamart每个柠檬要价5分，现在一般要价为30分一个。过去11年只有一年不适合桔类水果生长。显然，柑桔种植者应该对桔类水果价格过度上涨负责。为防止他们继续哄抬价格规范价格规定很有必要。

　　提纲：

　　1. 小范围推大范围。

　　2. 忽略他因，是否只有一种因素导致价格上升——不适合生长。。。还有，比如环境保护，加工价格上升，人力成本上升，或者单纯的物价上涨。。。monetary inflation, increased distribution and labor costs, or alterations in supply and demand conditions

　　1.柠檬缺乏代表性，或者说，柠檬有其特殊性，譬如柠檬都是进口的，比较贵;

　　2.天气好不一定代表物价要低，因为种植柑橘的农民已经动用了可用的资源了，产量无法再多了;

　　3.是否物价高就是农民肆意抬高的缘故，可能是dealers在其中的作用;

　　4.政府是否要介入，虽然价格变贵了，但是targeted customers没有变化，对整个国民经济影响不大
