GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng)整理：種植者應(yīng)對橘類水果的價格上漲負(fù)責(zé).

　　4月5日GMAT換庫后，小編為大家收集整理4月份的GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng)，這篇是關(guān)于種植者應(yīng)對橘類水果的價格上漲負(fù)責(zé)的文章，分享給大家，希望對大家有所幫助，僅供參考。

　　【原始】

　　作文是講citrus crops的。MEGAmarket的lemon價格11年里面漲了很多，然后又談到因?yàn)樘鞖獾脑騝rop種的不好，所以growers要為crops價格上漲負(fù)責(zé)，并且要對產(chǎn)品價格進(jìn)行控制以免造成通脹，大概是這樣的，攻擊點(diǎn)還是毛毛多的

　　【原題】

　　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 15 cents a pound for lemons, but today it commonly charges over a dollar a pound. In only one of these last 11 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.”

　　Discuss how well reasoned . . . etc.

　　【譯文】

　　當(dāng)?shù)貓蠹埖纳缯摚?/p>

　　過去的10年里，桔類水果的價格實(shí)際上上升了。11年前，Megamart每磅檸檬要價15美分，現(xiàn)在一般每磅要價超過1美元。過去11年只有一年不適合桔類水果生長。顯然，柑桔種植者應(yīng)該對桔類水果價格過度上漲負(fù)責(zé)。為防止他們繼續(xù)哄抬價格規(guī)范價格規(guī)定很有必要。

　　【參考思路】

　　1、 樣本不足(citrus fruit有很多種，只列舉lemons不足以說明橘類水果價格整體上漲)

　　2、 可疑調(diào)查(“過去11年只有一年不適合citrus fruit生長”這一調(diào)查的來源不明)

　　3、 忽略它因

　　1即使過去11年基本都適合生長，也還有別的因素可能導(dǎo)致，比如環(huán)境惡化，加工價格上升，人力成本上升，或者物價上漲monetary inflation, increased distribution and labor costs, or alterations in supply and demand conditions)

　　2橘類水果價高就不一定是農(nóng)民肆意抬高的緣故，可能是dealers在其中的作用;政府是否要介入，雖然價格變貴了，但是targeted customers沒有變化，對整個國民經(jīng)濟(jì)影響不大

　　4、 無根據(jù)假設(shè)：

　　天氣好不一定導(dǎo)致產(chǎn)量高，因?yàn)榉N植柑橘的農(nóng)民已經(jīng)動用了可用的資源了，產(chǎn)量無法再多了;

　　【范文】

　　In this editorial the author argues for the imposition of strict pricing regulations in order to prevent citrus growers from continued inflation of prices of citrus fruit. The need for such regulation is supported by the author&aposs contention that citrus growers have been unnecessarily raising prices of citrus fruit in the past. The evidence for this allegation is the fact that the price of lemons has increased from 15 cents per pound to over a dollar per pound during the preceding 11-year period, even though weather conditions have been favorable to citrus production in all but one of those years. This argument is flawed in two important respects.

　　First and foremost, the author assumes that the only factor that influences the price of citrus fruit is the weather. Other factors—such as monetary inflation, increased distribution and labor costs, or alterations in supply and demand conditions—are ignored as possible sources for the increase. The charge that citrus growers have unnecessarily raised prices can be sustained only if these and other possible factors can be completely ruled out as contributing to the price increases. Since the author fails to address these factors, the recommendation calling for strict pricing regulations can be dismissed out-of-hand as frivolous.

　　Second, the author assumes that the only way to combat increased prices is through government intervention. In a free-enterprise system many other means of affecting the pricing of goods are available. For example, boycotting a product and thereby influencing supply and demand conditions of the commodity is an fective means of influencing the price of the product. In a free market economy the government should consider regulating prices only when all other means to rectify the problem have been exhausted.

　　In conclusion, the author&aposs argument is unconvincing. To strengthen the argument the author would have to show that the only factor influencing the price increases is the growers&apos desire for increased profits.

　　以上就是關(guān)于種植者應(yīng)對橘類水果的價格上漲負(fù)責(zé)的GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng)的全部內(nèi)容，考生朋友可以有選擇的看看，最后需要提醒各位的是，機(jī)經(jīng)雖然會對我們解題有所幫助，但是在考場中即使題目很像也要避免秒選，最后祝大家都能考出好成績。
