GMAT argument写作七宗罪的记忆方法.txt13母爱是迷惘时苦口婆心的规劝;母爱是远行时一声殷切的叮咛;母爱是孤苦无助时慈祥的微笑。AA七宗罪的记忆方法:因、果、证

分析了两个晚上的AA,发现"七宗罪"确实是好东西,就是那些"罪"太多、而且过于零散,很难记忆。因此将七宗罪分类整理了一下,按照论证的原因、结果、论证过程三部分,归为三个类别:

因、果、证

1、因

就是原因上的问题,有以下三个:

可疑调查

样本不足

结论无据

2、果

就是结论上的问题,有以下两个:

无因果联系

二者择一

3、证

就是论证过程上的问题,有以下两个,纵向横向各一个:

错误类比(横向)

时地全等(纵向)

这样,只要记住了三字诀:因、果、证,就很容易记牢全部七宗罪了。

顺便分析一下本月JJ的一篇AA:

"Our total sales have increased this year by 20 percent since we added a pharmacy section to our

grocery store. Clearly, the customer's main concern is the convenience afforded by one-stop

shopping. // 无因果联系,可能另有他因。 The surest way to increase our profits over the next couple

of years, therefore, is to add a clothing department along with an automotive supplies and repair

shop. We should also plan to continue adding new departments and services, such as a restaurant

and a garden shop, in subsequent years. // 时地全等 Being the only store in the area that offers such a range of services will give us a competitive advantage over other local stores." // 结论无据

附:七宗罪

第一宗罪:无因果联系

The author commits a fallacy of causal oversimplification. The line of the reasoning is that because A occurred before B, the former event is responsible for the latter. (The author uses the positive correlation between A and B to establish causality. However, the fact that A coincides with B does not necessarily prove that A caused B.) But this is fallacious reasoning unless other possible causal explanations have been considered and ruled out. For example, perhaps C is the cause of these events or perhaps B is caused by D.

第二宗罪样本不足 Insufficient-sample

The evidence the author provides is insufficient to support the conclusion drawn from it. One example is logically unsounded to establish a general conclusion (The statistics from only a few recent years are not necessarily a good indicator of future trends), unless it can be shown that A1 is representative of all A. It is possible that.... In fact, in face of such limited evidence, the conclusion that B is completely unwarranted.

第三宗罪: 错误类比 (based on a false analogy )<横向>

The argument rests on the assumption that A is analogous to B in all respects. This assumption is weak, since although there are points of comparison between A and B, there is much dissimilarity as well. For example, A..., however, B.... Thus, it is likely much more difficult for B to do....

第四宗罪时地全等 all things are equal<纵向>

The author commits the fallacy of "all things are equal". The fact that happened two years ago is not a sound evidence to draw a conclusion that.... The author assumes without justification that the background conditions have remained the same at different times or at different locations. However, it is not clear in this argument whether the current conditions at AA are the same as they used to be two years ago. Thus it is impossible to conclude that....

第五宗罪二者择一 Either-Or choice

The author assumes that AA and BB are mutually exclusive alternatives and there is no room for a middle ground. However, the author provides no reason for imposing an either-or choice. Common sense tells us that adjusting both AA and BB might produce better results.

第六宗罪可疑调查 survey is doubtful

The poll cited by the author is too vague to be informative. The claim does not indicate who conducted the poll, who responded, or when, where and how the poll was conducted. (Lacking information about the number of people surveyed and the number of respondents, it is impossible to access the validity of the results. For example, if 200 persons were surveyed but only 2 responded, the conclusion that...would be highly suspect. Because the argument offers no evidence that would rule out this kind of interpretations,) Until these questions are answered, the results of the survey are worthless as evidence for the conclusion.

第七宗罪结论无据 gratuitous assumption

The author falsely depends on gratuitous assumption that.... However, no evidence is stated in the argument to support this assumption. In fact, this is not necessarily the case. For example, it is more likely that.... Therefore, this argument is unwarranted without ruling out such possibility

The following appeared as part of the business plan of an investment and financial consulting firm. “Studies suggest that an average coffee drinker’s consumption of coffee increases with age, from age 10 through age 60. Even after age 60, coffee consumption remains high. The average cola drinker’s consumption of cola, however, declines with increasing age. Both of these trends have remained stable for the past 40 years. Given that the number of older adults will significantly increase as the population ages over the next 20 years, it follows that the demand for coffee will increase and the demand for cola will decrease during this period. We should, therefore, consider transferring our investments from Cola Loca to Early Bird Coffee.” Discuss how well reasoned... etc. 一家投资财经咨询公司的商务计划: 研究显示一个普通咖啡消费者的咖啡消耗从10到60岁随年龄增长,甚至在60岁以后,咖啡消费仍然保持很高。而一般的可乐消费者的可乐消费随年龄增加递减。在过去40年中这两个趋势都很稳定。由于在未来的20年内老年人口将显著增加,咖啡需求回增长而可乐需求会降低。因此,我们应该考虑将我们的投资从可口可乐转向雀巢咖啡。

考试的经验教训

GMAT考试的经验教训 我是2006年9月开始念国内的硕士,从那时开始准备GMAT考试,忽紧忽松地复习了一年多,2007年10月31日一战640+5.5,又准备42天,2007年12月12日二战770+5.5。现在回想起整个准备过程,真是颇有感慨,不过把这结果已经看得淡了,还是觉得过程更重要。世界上的事情大都如此吧:当你付出过,也得到了还不错的结果,回头再看,你总会把过程看得更重一些。这是我GMAT考试的经验教训。 我不是大神。我觉得,对大多数非牛人的备考者,比较理想的GMAT分数都应该由以下几方面组成:努力+方法+心态+机经+运气,而且其重要程度是递减的。如果你是牛人,我想我这篇总结可以不看。如果你不是牛人,尤其是新手,我觉得这篇还是比较值得一看的。好,言归正传。 1 努力 如果你不是牛人,准备GMAT的过程中千万别把自己当人看,一定要敢于让自己过一种猪狗不如的备考生活。前程百利上的牛人很多,像小安(牛到可以把GMAT阅读的方法烂熟于胸),像88天800分的大牛tonyadidas(我对此位牛人很是敬佩。他虽然巨牛,但说话很实在,对一些资料的见解相当高明),还有经常可见的那些帖子“菜鸟两个月一战7**”,等等这都是牛人。千万别幻想你也这么牛。也许你可以变得这么牛,但那必须先经过艰苦的努力。 所以,我的意见是,如果你不是牛人,那些帖子对于你价值不大:要么根本不要去看,要么坚定地抱着“扬弃”的观念,只选适合自己的地方看,一看就知道不适合自己以及一下子还不知道适不适合自己的地方,都千万别看。 我认为我准备的过程还是一直比较努力的。举两方面的例子。前程百利上好多人(包括一战时的携隐)都说,自己没怎么看作文,只是临时背了背模板,看了几篇高频,就去考试;但我不敢托大,不敢小看作文,我在作文上花了不少时间,计时练习了六十多篇,而且好好总结了两遍。前程百利上

The following appeared in a report presented for discussion at a meeting of the directors of a company that manufactures parts for heavy machinery. “The falling revenues that the company is experiencing coincide with delays in manufacturing. These delays, in turn, are due in large part to poor planning in purchasing metals. Consider further that the manager of the department that handles purchasing of raw materials has an excellent background in general business, psychology, and sociology, but knows little about the properties of metals. The company should, therefore, move the purchasing manager to the sales department and bring in a scientist from the research division to be manager of the purchasing department.” Discuss how well reasoned... etc. 生产重工业部件的公司的领导人的会议辩论:

如果你只剩两个月--GMAT考试新手冲7复习攻略

如果你只剩两个月--GMAT考试新手冲7复习攻略 大家都对自己的目前的水平并没有一个合适的认识,或者打算先考一次。而对于一些机会不多的同学来说,我们应该合理的安排时间,平稳复习,实力才是硬道理。特别是一些还有两个月以上备考的新手。接下来小编就带大家看看GMAT考试新手复习攻略的相关介绍,希望大家顺利备考GMAT考试。 1、考试形式和分数构成 GMAT怎么考呢,一共四个部分。verbal(语法、逻辑、阅读)、数学、IR(综合推理,也就是图表题)、写作(现在只要写一篇AWA)。 大家一定都知道都在说“语法为王”。为什么呢?要深刻理解这句话,要先知道GMAT的算分制度,我们天天梦想的700+是什么——verbal+math。IR和作文分数都是另算的(IR满分8分,作文满分6分),在成绩单上也是单独分列出来的。那么很清楚了,从某种意义上说,能不能700+只跟verbal和math有关。然后Math对于中国人来说真的不难拿50+,所以verbal就成为重点了。我打算把重点放最后。 我建议备考顺序按照先逐项的顺序。从verbal入手,把OG做了。前面一段时间(我不知道你们计划的复习时间有多长)主攻verbal。之后再慢慢加入数学、IR和作文。 2、数学怎么考 大家都说数学不要怕,提前一个多月开始做prep和机经就可以了。作为一个新手你一定很紧张,说实话,我是提前开始复习数学的。因为初中高中的数学真的全忘光了,如果我不做点题,不知道数学有多难,心里实在没底,好紧张。做完OG的数学部分,心里才安了一点。现在,对于数学,我可以很负责地说,真的不要怕,连一点点都没必要。每天抽一点时间做做题,没有大的问题。

Without taking into account other essential factors, the assumption is unsupportable.

Without taking into account the real relationship between two events, the assumption is unreasonable. The author has to provide more concrete evidence to prove a causal relationship between A and B.

[原创]AA七宗罪的记忆方法:因、果、证 分析了两个晚上的AA,发现“七宗罪”确实是好东西,就是那些“罪”太多、而且过于零散,很难记忆。因此将七宗罪分类整理了一下,按照论证的原因、结果、论证过程三部分,归为三个类别: 因、果、证 1、因 就是原因上的问题,有以下三个: 可疑调查 样本不足 结论无据 2、果 就是结论上的问题,有以下两个: 无因果联系 二者择一 3、证 就是论证过程上的问题,有以下两个,纵向横向各一个: 错误类比(横向) 时地全等(纵向) 这样,只要记住了三字诀:因、果、证,就很容易记牢全部七宗罪了。 顺便分析一下本月JJ的一篇AA: “Our total sales have increased this year by 20 percent since we added a pharmacy section to our grocery store.

七宗罪的解释---给不太明白七宗罪的TX

七宗罪的解释---给跟我一样不太明白七宗罪的TX 19号就要考试了。今天才开始看awa,发现虽然大概能看懂七宗罪,但是真的不知道怎么用。不知道either-or choice 和gratuitous assumption又什么区别。头大。所以翻了一下以前的GRE资料,发现了一个类似七宗罪的解释版。因为资料是1年前的,所以不记得是从哪里download的了。好像是太傻或寄托上吧。先谢谢原作者了。 1. 开头 In this argument, the arguer concludes/ suggests/ makes a suggestion/ makes a conclusion that…To justify this conclusion/ suggestion/ argument, the arguer points out/ cites that…The arguer also points out/ cites that…Although the argument/ conclusion/ suggestion seems plausible, after closely scruinizin g this argument, I find that this argument is logically flawed in several aspects, which render it unconvincing as it stands. 2. 结尾 In conclusion, despite that fact that this argument seems appealing, it has several logical flaws, and is therefore unpersuasive as it stands. To bolster his or her argument, the arguer must provide more information which can show that…To better support this argument, the arguer should also provide…To better evaluate this argument, I would also need to know that… 3. 调查问题 A threshold problem with this argument involves a survey/ study/ research itself. The statistical reliability of the survey/study/research/ is really dubious可疑for the reason that the speaker provide no evidence which can show that the number of the respondents( 这里建议替换成调查研究中的群体。比如针对谁提问就写谁) is statistically significant or that the respondents were representative of the overall group of people(接所有群体,比如北京市所有的一类群体) in general. Common sense tells us that the smaller the size of the sample, the greater the possiblity for biased results, the less reliable the result of the survey and the less reliable any general conclusions drawn from the survey. That is to say, (你要开始攻击了) The number of participants, 100(文中数据), might be just an insufficiently small sample on which cannot be justifiably relied to draw any reliable conclusions about... Also, the sample might be not necessarily representative of (所有群体). Lacking the information about the randomness and the size of the survey sample, the speaker cannot convince me to believe in the result of the survey—let alone draw any broader recommendation based on the survey/study/research/ result. 用于结尾总结的句型: To better support this argument, the arguer should provide more information to show that the respondents of the survey are statistically significant in number and can represent the overall ... 总结一下,这个是针对原题中出现什么调查研究的专门攻击段,如果你在考试中看到了任何研究调查,立刻把这一段写好。这个攻击段的主题很简单,你的前提,我表示怀疑,而且你没有给我更多

GMAT写作满分范文:成功类

GMAT写作满分范文:成功类 Topic: “There is only one definition of success — to be able to spend your life in your own way.” To what extent do you agree or disagree with this definition of success? Support your position by using reasons and examples from your reading, your own experience, or your observation of others. Sample essay The speaker defines success simply as the ability of someone to spend his life in his own way. While success generally means more choices, I disagree with this point of view for the following three reasons. First, nearly all people would be regarded as failures under this definition. Most people have limited resources for what they can do and how they achieve it. In this case, they are unable to spend their life in their own way. On the other hand, only a few people, such as tyrannical dictators and ultra-wealthy individuals, have the unlimited resources and therefore are considered successful. Furthermore, even the people who have freedom of choices are not necessarily successful because they may acquire it through uncommon means. For example, lottery winners may have great financial resources and be able to spend their life in any way they choose, but they will not be regarded as successful by most other people. Rather, most people regard success as achieving their goals. The more you achieve, the more successful you are; conversely, the less you achieve the less successful you are. A good example is a very successful chief financial officer at a large company in the Silicon Valley in the United States. When he returned from a week's vacation, he found 2,000 email messages in his computer. He didn't take the trouble of reading them one by one as everyone else might do; instead, he did it in his own way -- erasing them all. His unique theory was that the important communications would be repeated. Couldn't we conclude that his doing things in his way is to some extent related to his success? In sum, "to spend your life in your own way" should not only be the only definition of
