GRE寫作成為橫在中國學(xué)生的理想和現(xiàn)實之間的一大障礙,因此,如何攻克寫作這道屏障,成為擺在我們面前的首要任務(wù)。
題目:
The following appeared in the summary of a study on headaches suffered by the residents of Mentia.
"Salicylates are members of the same chemical family as aspirin, a medicine used to treat headaches. Although many foods are naturally rich in salicylates, for the past several decades, food-processing companies have also been adding salicylates to foods as preservatives. This rise in the commercial use of salicylates has been found to correlate with a steady decline in the average number of headaches reported by participants in our twenty-year study. Recently, food-processing companies have found that salicylates can also be used as flavor additives for foods. With this new use for salicylates, we can expect a continued steady decline in the number of headaches suffered by the average citizen of Mentia."
Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the argument. Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.

水楊酸酯和用來治療頭痛的藥物——阿司匹林是同一類化合物。盡管很多食品天然富含水楊酸酯,過去幾十年中食品加工公司仍然在食品中加入它來作為防腐劑。這種水楊酸酯在商業(yè)上的使用被發(fā)現(xiàn)與我們?yōu)槠?0年研究的參加者所報告的頭痛發(fā)病的平均數(shù)量下降是相關(guān)的。最近,食品加工公司發(fā)現(xiàn)水楊酸酯也可以被用作食品香料。根據(jù)這種水楊酸酯的新用途,我們可以預(yù)期Mentia居患頭痛癥的數(shù)量將會持續(xù)穩(wěn)步下降。
寫一篇回應(yīng),在其中檢視文章的論證中述及和/或未明確述及的假設(shè),務(wù)請解釋文章的論證是如何依賴于這些假設(shè)的,并指出如果這些假設(shè)不成立會對文章的論證帶來何種影響。
