    ARGUMENT TOPIC:

    . Until recently, people in Hiparia did most of their shopping by driving to shopping malls. They

    re beginning, however, to do more of their shopping by ordering merchandise from mail-order

    atalogs and the Internet. These purchases are delivered to them by mail or by a delivery

  • 8/4/2019 GREJULY

    22/24

    ervice. For many purchases, Hiparians no longer need to drive to and from shopping malls;

    here will therefore be a resulting reduction in the consumption of vehicle fuel in Hiparia.

    . The following appeared as a letter to the editor of a farming publication.

    With continuing publicity about the need for healthful diets, and with new research about the

    armful effects of eating too much sugar, nationwide demand for sugar will no doubt decline.

    herefore, farmers in our state should use the land on which they currently grow sugar cane to

    row peanuts, a food that is rich in protein and low in sugar. Farmers in the neighboring country

    f Palin greatly increased their production of peanuts last year, and their total revenues from

    hat crop were quite high."

    . The following appeared in a memorandum from the owner of Armchair Video, a chain of video

    ental stores.

    Because of declining profits, we must reduce operating expenses at Armchair Video's ten video

    ental stores. Raising prices is not a good option, since we are famous for our special bargains.

    nstead, we should reduce our operating hours. Last month our store in downtown Marston

    educed its hours by closing at 6:00 P.M. rather than 9:00 P.M. and reduced its overall inventory

    y no longer stocking any film released more than two years ago. Since we have received very

    ew customer complaints about these new policies, we should now adopt them at all other

    rmchair Video stores as our best strategies for improving profits."

    . A recently completed study shows that people dwelling in stairs-only apartment buildings

    that is, buildings without elevators) live an average of three years longer than do people who

    ve in buildings with both elevators and stairs. A second study shows that elderly residents of

    uildings with elevators make, on average, twice as many visits to doctors each year as do

    lderly residents of buildings without elevators. These findings suggest that even a very

    moderate amount of daily exercise, such as that required to use the stairs leading to and from

    ne's apartment, can increase people's health and longevity. The findings also suggest that new

    partment buildings should be constructed with as few elevators as possible.

    . The following appeared in a letter from the mayor of Tudor City.After a major airline chose Yorkville as its regional flight hub, the number of businesses in that

    ty almost doubled and local tax revenue increased by 50 percent. In addition, as travel to

    orkville became easier, most respondents to a survey of the country's top executives identified

    orkville as a desirable place to transact business. To secure efficient transportation for Tudor

    ity and stimulate our local economy, we should build a new airport, like the one in Yorkville,

    hat is suitable for a regional flight hub."

    . The following was written as a part of an application for a small business loan by a group of

    evelopers in the city of Monroe.

    A jazz music club in Monroe would be a tremendously profitable enterprise. Currently, theearest jazz club is 65 miles away; thus, our proposed club, the C Note, would have the local

    market all to itself. Plus, jazz is extremely popular in Monroe: over 100,000 people attended

    onroe's jazz festival last summer, several well-known jazz musicians live in Monroe, and the

    ighest-rated radio program in Monroe is 'Jazz Nightly,' which airs every weeknight. Finally, a

    ationwide study indicates that the typical jazz fan spends close to $1,000 per year on jazz

    ntertainment. It is clear that the C Note cannot help but make money."

    . Memo of some hazardous waste disposal company.

    : Luxuries vs Necessities.

    0: Astrology and paramormal sciences should be a part of basic science courses, as they are

    much more austere and abstract than the bookish subjects.

    1: Some waiter and waitress receiving tips.

    2: In the past, the body styles of Patrioit Cars have been old fashioned, and our cars have not

    old as well as have our competitor's cars. But now, since many regions in this country report

    apid increases in the number of newly liscenced drivers, we should be able to increase our

    hare of the market by selling cars to this growing population. Thus, we should discontinue our

    ldest models and concentrate instead on manufacturing sporty cars. We can also improve the

    uccess of our marketing campaigns by switching our advertising to the Youth Advertising

    gency, which has successfullypromoted the country's leading soft drink."

    3: On a city names Coalvilles business.

    4: A circulation about establishing a new dormitory as students are increasing and outside rent

    s high

    5: Dr.flaks theory of concluding on observation of nurture of children in tirate island

    6: The following appeared in a Letter to the Editor of the Shady Village newspaper.

    Commuters are complaining that the rush hour traffic on Blue Highway between Shady Village

    nd Bright City has doubled their commuting time. Some commuters have asked that an

    dditional traffic lane be built, but the recent creation of such a lane on nearby Green Highway

    pparently attracted more commuters, judging from the fact that rush-hour traffic jams actually

    ncreased there this past winter. To reduce rush-hour traffic on Blue Highway, a bicycle lanehould be added instead of a traffic lane. This approach will succeed because many citizens of

    hady Village are avid bicyclists; 75 percent of respondents to a recent questionnaire

    istributed there said they would like to bicycle more hours per week than they currently do."

    7. The following appeared as part of a memo from the manager of a hazardous-waste disposal

    ompany.

    Our new plan will help us better protect our staff against exposure to toxic chemicals: We are

    tting each new safety suit with an alarm that will sound in the main control booth when the

    uit is punctured. The control booth will notify the managers on duty, who will then take the

    ecessary steps to ensure employees' safety. In addition to the obvious safety-related benefits,he fast reaction time will ensure minimal work stoppage and thus result in increased worker

    roductivity and company profitability."
