3. It would be possible (natural/reasonable) to think (believe/take the view) that…, but it would be absurd (wrong) to claim (argue) that…
4. A close (careful) inspection (examination/scrutiny) of this argument would reveal how flimsy (groundless/fallacious) it is.
5. However just (logical/sound/valid) this argument maybe, it only skims the surface of the problem.
结尾

己准备必须多思考,拿了个题目想尽办法去分析,去了解如何写这个题。比如说(GRE培训)考试抽到的这个题(这个题比较好写),具体题不记得了,我复述:It should be required that student so far major take courses in a different major in college。这个题思考的时候就可以从很多方面入手,比如:对major进行分类,文科类、科学类、纯理论类(theoretical,math,physics等),他们肯定是不相同的。然后可以说不同的major对其他知识的需求,然后就是college对这类的限制(学到更广的知识,目的是什么,结果如何?),到了社会上如何。甚至,光知识对一个人自身的影响,以及反写等等。能想到这么多,并且把它们分段,有组织地串联起来,这篇文章就算是解决了。这也是一个非常明显的可以正反写的题目(让步、正面写、特例),所有的东西都能为主论点服务,因此相对比较难走题。
必须及必看经典句型
段:开头段。主要是归纳论点,说明论点有问题,存在逻辑漏洞,准备发起进攻
层:
This argument concludes/recommends/argues that…
第二层:
To support this conclusion the writer cites…/points out that…
第三层:
However, this argument suffers from several critical flaws and is therefore unconvincing/ unpersuasive as it stands.
第二段和第三段甚至第四段:分类别去攻击各个逻辑错误。(以因果关系类错误为例)
One problem with the argument is that, the editorial observes a correlation between… and …, then concludes that the former is the cause of the latter. However, the editorial fails to rule out other possible explanations for…For example,… Any of these factors, or other social, political or economic factors, might lead to…Without ruling out all other such factors it is unfair to conclude that…
第五段:结尾段
作者的结论似乎是合理的,但是通过论证,不是这样的。因此作者在做出决定之前,应该还要考虑其他情况。我们通过一篇文章作为实例来介绍Argument的论证步骤和论证方法以及文章结构。
In the final analysis, the letter's author fails to adequately support the recommendation that…To bolster the argument, the arguer must provide detailed demographic/statistical evidence showing that…The author must also provide evidence--perhaps by way
writer cites…/points out that…
