　　gre argument 115题目：

　　The following appeared in a clothing industry trade journal in the country of Sartoria.

　　"A popular fashion magazine(3) recently conducted a survey of consumers' opinions about clothing prices, using prepaid mailing envelopes. Eighty-nine percent of the approximately 20,000 respondents(1) reported that they were either "dissatisfied" or "very dissatisfied"(2) with current clothing prices. The large number of responses indicates that the Sartorian clothing industry is at risk(5). Given the survey results, clothing manufacturers must find a way to reduce prices(6) in order to keep their existing customers and maintain their businesses(4)."提纲：

　　(1)We do not know the 20,000 respondents constitute¹ what percent of the whole consumer population, thus the result of the survey may not be representative.

　　(2)We do not know what question was asked in the survey and if there are other options for the respondents, thus the result may not reflect actual opinion of consumers.

　　(3)The readers of the fashion magazine may not be representative of all consumers.

　　(4)There may still be great demand for clothing although customers are dissatisfied with clothing prices.

　　(5)The author does not indicate whether the respondents are dissatisfied with prices of imported clothing or with domestic² clothing prices, thus the assumption³ that clothing industry at Sartorian is also at risk is unfounded.

　　(6)The author fails to consider other possible solutions to keep customers and maintain business.

　　注：题目中括号里的数字表明这句话体现的是提纲中第几号缺陷。

　　无论是gre issue还是gre argument，考生都应该养成写提纲的习惯。这种提纲式的gre写作练习可以帮助考生锻炼写作的逻辑性，而gre写作高分最重要的得分依据就是作文的逻辑性要强。
