A recent study shows that people living on the continent of North America suffer 9 times more chronic
fatigue and 31 times more chronic depression than do people living on the continent of Asia. Interestingly,
Asians, on average, eat 20 grams of soy per day, whereas North Americans eat virtually none. It turns out
that soy contains phytochemicals called Isoflavones, which have een found to possess disease!
preventing properties. "hus, North Americans should consider eating soy on a regular asis as a way of
preventing fatigue and depression.
#ample #olution ! 1
"he aove argument tries to estalish a direct lin$ etween soy consumption and chronic fatigue and
depression. "he underlying asis of the argument is that soy protein contains phytochemicals called
Isoflavones, which are found to possess disease!preventing properties.
%owever, disease is a much larger term, which does not cover only fatigue and depression, ut also a
host of other medical conditions. &oreover, it is seen that chronic fatigue and depression are also the
results of high profile life, which leads to insomnia and stress. 'hronic fatigue and depression can e the
symptoms of some other diseases also. "he weather conditions, economic stature and wor$ environment
of Asia and North America are very different from each other. (eople in these continents have different
lifestyles. "heir attitude towards life is also very different. "hese health related prolems could not e
certainly related with the inta$e of a certain $ind of food that is soy foods. "herefore, it is very important to
estalish a direct relation etween soy foods and chronic fatigue and depression efore arriving at any
conclusion.
"he second point is that fatigue and depression are totally different from each other as scientifically they
are treated differently. )ou cannot categori*e them in the same group. )ou need to consult a psychologist
to treat depression and a doctor for fatigue related prolems. %ence, there cannot e the same solution
for two different prolems. Aove all, according to the author, chronic fatigue is 9 times and depression is
31 times more in North Americans as compared to their Asian counterparts. "here is a huge difference
etween 9 and 31. "herefore, you cannot relate or treat them together. "here are definitely going to e
different reasons for the two diseases.
According to the author, soy foods contain a chemical called Isoflavones, which have disease preventingproperties. %owever, there is no study, which reveals that it is relevant for all types of diseases. %ence, a
research has to e done to estalish that the drugs used to treat these two diseases contain Isoflavones.
%owever, it is a $nown fact that soy foods are good for human health as soy foods contain many nutrients
re+uired for the human ody. Again, there is no solid evidence that eating soy foods on a regular asis is
a solution for chronic fatigue and depression. "he author has not even mentioned aout any side effects

of Isoflavones. %ence, the suggestion to ta$e soy foods daily, without any detailed study aout soy food,
does not hold any ground.
%ence, it can e said that one should ta$e soy foods for overall health. It is a possiility that soy foods can
e helpful in treating or preventing some diseases, which further have chronic fatigue or depression as its
symptoms. "hat way one can lin$ these two diseases with Isoflavones. %owever, there is no direct
relation etween soy proteins and chronic fatigue and depression it is not -ustified in the given argument.
"he author should have provided a few proofs and data to estalish this relationship.

In order to save a considerale amount of money, /oc$inghams century!old town hall should e torn
down and replaced y the larger and more energy!efficient uilding that some citi*ens have proposed.
"he old town hall is too small to comfortaly accommodate the numer of people who are employed ythe town. In addition, it is very costly to heat the old hall in winter and cool it in summer. "he new, larger
uilding would e more energy efficient, costing less per s+uare foot to heat and cool than the old hall.
4urthermore, it would e possile to rent out some of the space in the new uilding, therey generating
income for the town of /oc$ingham.
#ample #olution ! 2
According to the conclusion of this editorial, the new and larger uilding of town hall in place of the old
one will help in saving money and energy. %owever, many points given in support of the views of the
writer are not very convincing. Although, there is no dout that the new proposed uilding will have manyadvantages over the old town hall, ut the author has ignored to mention many important points. %e has
completely failed to provide evidence for his reasons to uild the new uilding. "he points given y the
author have no relevant relation among themselves. 4or e5ample, the cost effectiveness and the fact that
the old uilding is not ale to accommodate its employees are not related anywhere. %e has tried to
e5plain the need of the new town hall ut has neglected to suggest the alternative measures that can e
ta$en to solve the prolems faced y the old town hall.
"he author has tal$ed aout the larger and the energy efficient new uilding. According to him, it would
cost less per cuic foot to heat and cool the new uilding as compared to the old town hall uilding.
%owever, he has easily forgotten to mention the overall cost of heating and cooling the much larger new
uilding. "his cost might e much higher than the current e5penses. In addition, there will e the costs of
constructing the new uilding and installing new systems. "he author has not even mentioned the option
of installing new heating and cooling systems in the old uilding. "he upgradation of the old system might
e more cost effective. 6esides, the new uilding might also need some maintenance fee to maintain the
new facilities added to the uilding.

"he second point on which the author is insisting is that the current uilding cannot comfortaly
accommodate all the people who wor$ in it. "his point is anyways not related to the money saving
measures the author is tal$ing aout. %ere again, the author has ignored other more effective solutions
for this prolem. 4or e5ample, adding another structure for the employees.
Another point is aout the renting out of the parts of the new property to generate some income. %owever,
the views of the author are contradictory as on one hand, he is e5plaining the need of a larger uilding
and on the other hand, he is tal$ing aout the renting out some part of property. %ence, if the new and
larger uilding is the need of the hour then there is no scope of additional income. "he author has failed
to give enough and strong evidence for the re+uirement of the new uilding. %e has also forgotten to
consider the heritage value of the /oc$inghams century old town hall.
%ence, the author has to collect more information aout the old uilding. "he author must search for
some solid evidence. %e should do a complete and detailed study of comparing the cost effectiveness of
oth the options including the initial cost of setting up the new uilding and replacing the old heating
system in the old uilding. "he author has to wor$ towards ma$ing his editorial logically more correct.

'laitown 7niversity needs oth affordale housing for its students and a way to fund the uilding of such
housing. "he est solution to this prolem is to commission a famous architect $nown for e5perimental
and futuristic uildings. It is common $nowledge that tourists are willing to pay money to tour some of the
architects uildings, so it can e e5pected that tourists will want to visit this new uilding. "he income
from the fees charged to tourists will soon cover the uilding costs. 4urthermore, such a uilding will
attract new students as well as donations from alumni. And even though such a uilding will e much
larger than our current need for student housing, part of the uilding can e used as office space.
#ample #olution ! 3
"his argument is aout hiring a famous architect to uild a cost effective uilding to house the students of
'laitown 7niversity. %owever, it seems from the authors statement that the 7niversity does not have
enough funds to construct this $ind of uilding. "he authors line of thought is not very convincing. %e has
not een ale to give logics for his reasons. %e should have gone in details of the cost of the new uilding
and other costs and the source of this money.
"his argument has many loopholes as the author is tal$ing on the asis of his assumptions. 4irst of all, he
is tal$ing aout commissioning a famous architect, who might charge a heavy amount for his wor$. It will
add a heavy urden on the 7niversitys udget. "he author has simply s$ipped this line of reasoning. %e
has not included this e5penditure in the cost. "he author is assuming that all the e5penditure related to
the uilding will e ta$en care of y the funds coming from the students fee, donations coming from the
alumni and the amount paid y tourists to visit the new uilding.

%owever, all these are -ust assumptions. "he author has not considered the possiility that the tourists
might not e interested in visiting a uilding that is meant for students housing. 8nce the students start
using the uilding, tourists will not e attracted towards the uilding or they might e happy y watching it
from outside only. "hat way there will not e any income from the tourists. %ence, the arguments claim
fails to prove that a famous architects wor$ will generate income for the alancing of costs.
"he author has not even e5plained the source of money to construct the uilding. "he uilding will receive
the funds from students in the form of fee and other funds only when the uilding will e in use. %ence,
this argument holds ase only if the architect agrees to ta$e his payment later on and the supplier also
supplies the construction material without ta$ing any advance.
4urther, the author has tal$ed aout attracting new students and the old students who can ma$e
donations. %owever, he has not provided any evidence to support his views neither he has given any
e5ample of some other university. It might e possile that the old alumni are more attached to the
e5isting uilding. "herefore, one cannot accept this conclusion without any proof.
In short, we can say that the author could not support his argument. %e has not supplied any evidence to
prove his point. %e should have studied similar cases of other college uildings that were designed y
famous architects and tourists are interested in visiting and paying to watch them. "he author should also
have emphasi*ed on the detailed e5planation of the financial aspects of the uilding pro-ect. A survey of
old students and alumni also would have een a good idea as then we will $now how interested students
are to ma$e donations.

As a result of numerous consumer complaints of di**iness and nausea, (romofoods re+uested that eightmillion cans of tuna e returned for testing last year. (romofoods concluded that the cans did not, after all,
contain chemicals that posed a health ris$. "his conclusion is ased on the fact that the chemists from
(romofoods tested samples of the recalled cans and found that, of the eight chemicals most commonly
lamed for causing symptoms of di**iness and nausea, five were not found in any of the tested cans. "he
chemists did find that the three remaining suspected chemicals are naturally found in all other $inds of
canned foods.

"his argument is ased on the complaints of nausea and di**iness from the consumers who have used
canned tuna. Although (romofoods had recalled eight million cans of tuna and also some samples of tuna
to la for testing, it concluded that the cans did not contain any chemical, which can cause any health
ha*ard.
"he results of the tests done y chemists from (romofoods do not hold any ground, as these results are
not supported y any strong evidence. As per the chemists from (romofoods, there are eight chemicals
responsile for di**iness and nausea and five of them were not present in the tested cans of tuna.

%owever, they have not considered the possiility that certain chemicals in contact with other chemicals
can also cause di**iness and nausea. "he results of this testing can also e iased as the testing has
een done only on a few samples. %ence, it cannot e said that five chemicals not present in the tested
samples were not present in the cans consumed y the affected uyers. (romofoods should have
collected the cans from where tuna was consumed and that caused health ris$ for many people. It might
e possile that those cans contained these chemicals. hen it comes to testing, you cannot generali*e
the results.
According to (romofoods, five suspected chemicals were not present in the tested samples and the other
three are present in the other canned foods and do not cause any ad effect. %owever, this is again
without any strong evidence. It is -ust an assumption that the chemicals, which do not cause any ad
effect in one canned food, will not cause any ill effect in canned tuna. It might e possile that one of
these chemicals causes health ris$ when e5posed to some specific chemical present in tuna. %ence, it is
not right to say in general that tuna cans were not responsile for the symptoms of di**iness and nausea.
It can e said the whole conclusion of (romofoods is ased on wea$ evidence. "he results of the tests
done y the chemists are not very convincing.
(romofoods should have done tests on a large numer of canned tuna. It should have gathered more
results to ma$e its study more convincing. %owever, it cannot e said that the study done y (romofoods
is aseless. It is entirely possile that there are some other chemicals, which are responsile for the
symptoms of nausea and di**iness and it is not found yet. (romofoods should also ta$e this possiility
into account.
In the end, it can e said that the entire study of this argument is ased on assumption that the eight
chemicals responsile for nausea and di**iness were not present in the tuna cans. "his is an important
study and (romofoods should wor$ on providing stronger evidence. "hey have to prove that there was no
iased sampling and the testing was correct. "he chemists have to prove that the three chemicals, which
are normally found in other canned foods, do not cause any harmful effect in tuna.

"his argument is aout the two competing products, 'olde5 and 'old!Away. 6oth the medicines are cold
medicines availale over!the!counter. 6oth the rands compete with each other and accuse each other
for some side effect. According to the author, 'olde5 is responsile for causing high lood pressure and
'old!Away causes drowsiness. %ere, the author seems a little iased as without providing any evidence,
he is suggesting that as 'old!Away is in the mar$et for a longer period, it is more effective and it should
e the clear choice of customers.
"he logic provided y the author is very duious and unconvincing. "he author is simply trying to oost
the consumers ego y saying that the choice should e clear for most health!conscious people. "hough it
is a good advertising tactic used y the company, it cannot e considered as enough proof of 'old!Away
eing more effective.
"he author is giving one more logic that 'old!Away is in the mar$et for a longer period. %owever, this fact
also does not add any effectiveness to the argument. "he new medicine might have new effective
ingredients. It is not necessary that well!estalished products are etter than newer ones. &oreover,
latest medicines often ma$e use of new pharmaceutical developments than the e5isting products. Insteadof this, the author should have concentrated on the plus and minus points of the two medicines.
According to the author, 'old!Away is used y more hospitals than 'olde5, that is the reason enough to
consider 'old!Away more effective. "his is again an advertising gimmic$ and not a proof that it is more
effective. "here might e some other reasons for hospitals using 'old!Away. It is -ust an assumption of
the author that the hospitals are recommending 'old!Away ecause it is etter than 'olde5. It might e
that doctors are using this medicine ecause of its drowsiness inducing effect to calm their patients. 4or
that matter, perhaps hospitals use 'old!Away primarily for this effect rather than as a cold medication.
8ne more prolem with this argument is the side effect of 'olde5. If 'olde5 is the cause of high lood
pressure then, oviously no doctor will recommend it. %owever, people who do not suffer with the
prolem of high lood pressure can still use it. "hus, 'olde5s side effect is irrelevant in choosing etween
the two products. &oreover, if a person without high lood pressure wishes to avoid drowsiness during
the treatment of cold, 'olde5 would seem to e the preferale medication than 'old!Away.
"he author has not offered convincing evidence to support his views. %e should have strengthened his
argument y providing the evidence that the doctors and hospitals use 'old!Away ecause of its
effectiveness in treating cold. A data of clinical research or a reliale data of general survey would have
supported the argument in a etter way. It should not e ased on assumptions. In the present form, it
-ust loo$s li$e an advertisement tactic to increase the sale of one product. It is -ust trying to persuade
people to uy 'old!Away.

"ypically, as people age, their one mass decreases, ma$ing them more vulnerale to one fractures. A
recent study concludes that the most effective way to reduce the ris$ of fractures in later life is to ta$e
twice the recommended dose of vitamin = and calcium daily. "he three!year study followed a group of
4rench women in their eighties who were nursing home residents. "he women were given daily
supplements of twice the recommended dose of vitamin = and calcium. In addition, the women
participated in a light weightlifting program. After three years, these women showed a much lower rate of
hip fractures than is average for their age.
#ample #olution ! >
"he asis of this argument is the fact that people lose their one mass as they age and therefore, they
are more prone to fractures. According to the conclusion of this argument, old people should ta$e twice
the recommended dose of vitamin = and calcium. %owever, there are many loopholes in this study. "he
evidence used y the author is very vague.
4irst of all, this study is only on a group of 4rench women. "his cannot e true for the people from all
other continents or even countries. (eople from different places have different food haits and different
life styles. very place has different climate and geological conditions. (eople from plain areas and
people from hilly areas cannot e placed in the same group. #imilarly, persons with active lifestyles
cannot e merged with the not so active people. ven, males and females should e studied separately
as they are very different from each other in terms of their physi+ue and hormones. "heir level of
asoring vitamin and calcium is different. "here is also a possiility that the 4rench people have
something in their diet that prevents or reduces fractures. &oreover, the author has not mentioned the
numer of women in the group. If the group is too small, then it does not even represent all the 4rench
women. "he author has assumed so many things and generali*ed the data, which cannot e possile.
#econdly, this study is done on nursing home residents, which in itself +uestions the study. "here might
e a possiility that these women had led an active life in their career and ta$en various precautions
related to their health, hence they are less susceptile to fractures. It is highly possile that the other
women, who are not the residents of a nursing home will suffer the same numer of fractures in spite of
ta$ing the recommended vitamin = and calcium.

"he third point is that this study is done only on the women who are in their eighties. %ence, the results of
this study do not hold true for all age groups. &oreover, the author has also mentioned in his study that
these women also participated in some lightweight e5ercises. "he author has not ta$en care of this
aspect while concluding the argument. It is highly possile that these lightweight e5ercises had actually
strengthened the muscles of these women. "he author has not mentioned or e5plained the relation
etween vitamin = and calcium and the strength of ones. %e should have e5plained in details the
relation etween the fractures and the inta$e of vitamin = and calcium.
"he lowest point of this argument is that according to the author, the women have shown a lower rate of
hip fractures. %e has not even mentioned the effect of increased dose of vitamin on the other types of
fractures. %ence, the results cannot e true for other types of fractures. "he author should have also
considered other fractures. %ence, it can e concluded that this study is incomplete and deprived of

"his study concludes that the teachers will e happier staying in small towns if their spouses will e in the

Another factor is that the chairperson has mentioned is that the 7niversity should ta$e this measure to

most of the times that person is amitious. In this case, they would e more interested in getting -os in a

not tried to e5plain the procedure. In fact, the author has not mentioned aout the success ratio of this

"here are chances that this procedure can only inhiit the growth of the harmful acteria or can $ill a

not very convincing that if consumers were made aware of the increased safety of ulf 'oast oysters,
they would e ready to pay the increased amount for ulf 'oast ones. It might e possile that they will
e worried aout the success rate of this new procedure or some side effect of this method.
"here is one more low point of this argument. "hese changes too$ place in the mar$et five years ago.

I completely agree with this argument placed y the author as when the customers are happy with the
