Book publishers have traditionally published a few books that they thought were of intrinsic merit even though these books were unlikely to make a profit. Nowadays, however, fewer of these books are being published. It seems, ttherefore, that publishers now, more than ever, are more interested in making money than in publishing books of intrinsic value.
The statement 'In recent years, profits in the book publishing industry have been declining' most seriously weakens the argument.

Mobile payment is now rapidly gaining popularity in large and medium-sized cities such as Beijing and Shanghai. However, not all Chinese are familiar with this new method of payment and many elderly people are still used to traditional cash transactions. As a result, some experts assert that the rapid popularity of mobile payments will keep the elderly out of the consumer economy, thus affecting their quality of life in their later years.
Because of their advanced age, many elderly people do not shop directly, and the goods they need are generally provided by their children or society, and they are very happy in their twilight years can best question the expert's assertion.

Consumer advocate: Businesses are typically motivated primarily by the desire to make as great a profit as possible, and advertising helps businesses to achieve this goal. But it is clear that the motive of maximizing profits does not impel businesses to present accurate information in their advertisements. It follows that consumers should be skeptical of the claims made in advertisements.
Many consumers have a cynical attitude toward advertising would not strengthen the consumer advocate's argument.

Smith: Under the International Rare Animal Protection Regulations, hybrid animals are not protected under the Regulations.Red wolves are among the subjects protected by the International Regulations on the Protection of Rare Animals. The latest genetic research techniques have found that red wolves, long considered purebred species, are actually re-acquired by hybridization of mountain dogs and grey wolves.Since red wolves clearly need protection, the regulation should be amended. Make it protect hybrid animals. Zhang Dazhong: Your point of view cannot be established.Because if the red wolf is indeed a hybrid of mountain dogs and gray wolves, then in fact, the red wolf is now extinct, can still be re-acquired through the hybridization of mountain dogs and gray wolves.
Zhang's rebuttal hypothesis is most likely to be that the current technology used to identify whether a certain animal is a hybrid is reliable.

Vandenburg: This art museum is not adhering to its purpose. Its founders intended it to devote as much attention to contemporary art as to the art of earlier periods, but its collection of contemporary art is far smaller than its other collections. Simpson: The relatively small size of the museum' s contemporary art collection is appropriate. It' s an art museum, not an ethnographic museum designed to collect every style of every period. Its contemporary art collection is small because its curators believe that there is little high-quality contemporary art.
The principle 'An art museum should collect only works that its curators consider to be of high artistic quality' most helps to justify the reasoning in Simpson's response to Vandenburg.

Soaring carbon dioxide emissions are causing global warming, putting glaciers in the Himalayas where Mount Everest is at risk of shrinking dramatically. The study shows that the rapid melting of glaciers occurs in the glacial-concentrated areas of Mount Everest at an altitude of 5,000 to 6,000 meters, and these places will only see ice in winter and not during the warmer season. Experts theorize that the rate of glacier loss in the Himalayas is likely to accelerate based on future climate change trends, and if temperatures continue to rise as predicted over the course of the century, the region's glaciers will eventually disappear.

It is illegal to advertise prescription medications in Hedland except directly to physicians, either by mail or in medical journals. A proposed law would allow general advertising of prescription medications. Opponents object that the general population lacks the specialized knowledge to evaluate such advertisements and might ask their physicians for inappropriate medications. But since physicians have the final say as to whether to prescribe a medication for a patient, inappropriate prescriptions would not become more common.
Establishing whether some people might go to a physician for no reason other than to ask for a particular medication they have seen advertised would be most useful in order to evaluate the argument.

If I borrow a generator from a neighbor, then I am morally obligated to return it when my immediate need for it is over. But suppose, instead, I borrow a car, and when I go to return it, the neighbor from whom I borrowed it is very drunk and wants to drive the car; then the obligation to return the car immediately is much less clear. So not all cases of borrowing are equivalent.
The main point of the argument is that although having borrowed something usually creates an obligation to return it promptly, this is not always the case.

Environmentalism is a belief and a strong desire to rebuild the relationship between man and nature. To realize this desire, we must establish a sense of natural community, that is, the role of human conqueror in the community must become an ordinary member of the community. It implies respect for each member, It also includes respect for the community itself. Only by establishing such a moral consciousness can people feel their obligations to the community when using their rights in the community. This depends not only on the scientific understanding of the nature, but also on the feelings for nature established on the basis of understanding.

Economists believe that the government's control over energy use is redundant, and the market can completely adjust the contradiction between energy supply and demand. If energy is really tight, then it is reflected in the market that energy prices will naturally rise, and the rise in energy prices will be a problem. On the one hand, people will reduce the use of energy because of the increase in usage costs, and on the other hand, because of the increase in profits, energy suppliers will increase the supply.
People's demand for energy is inelastic can effectively challenge the assertion.

Two different dates have been offered as the approximate end point of the last ice age in North America. The first date was established by testing insect fragments found in samples of sediments to determine when warmth-adapted open-ground beetles replaced cold-adapted arctic beetles. The second date was established by testing pollen grains in those same samples to determine when ice masses yielded to spruce forests. The first date is more than 500 years earlier than the second.
The statement 'Toward the end of the ice age, warmth-adapted open-ground beetles ceased to inhabit areas where the predominant tree cover consisted of spruce forests' most strongly supports the conclusion about the last ice age and its aftermath in North America.

It is widely assumed that people need to engage in intellectual activities such as solving crossword puzzles or mathematics problems in order to maintain mental sharpness as they age. In fact, however, simply talking to other people--that is, participating in social interaction, which engages many mental and perceptual skills--suffices. Evidence to this effect comes from a study showing that the more social contact people report, the better their mental skills.
The statement 'The tasks evaluating mental sharpness for which data were compiled by the study were more akin to mathematics problems than to conversation' most seriously weakens the force of the evidence cited.

According to my country's inheritance law, the first-order legal inheritance is: spouse, children, parents, and the second-order legal heirs are: brothers and sisters, stepparents, and grandparents. After the legal inheritance begins, the first-order heirs inherit. Heirs in the second order do not inherit. If there is no heir in the first order, the heirs in the second order will inherit. Several people who have an inheritance relationship with each other die in the same event. If the time of death cannot be determined, it is presumed that there is no heir to die first. If the deceased have their own heirs, if several deceased persons have different identities, it is presumed that the elders died first; if several deceased persons are of the same generation, they are presumed to die at the same time, and no inheritance will occur to each other, and their respective heirs will inherit separately.

Even through an ordinary transparent material such as glass or water, the speed of light slows down slightly because light interacts with the atoms that make up the material. But in this case, the effect is weak, and any attempt to enhance it will lead to light absorption. Therefore, it is important to slow down the speed of light so that it will not be absorbed. Welch did this through the chamber. This method places rubidium atoms in a very delicate quantum state in which rubidium atoms cannot absorb light.At the same time, the interaction of the two beams produces another beam of light with a long wavelength, which travels much slower than the original two beams.
Creating cheap and efficient light sources to avoid absorption is not part of Welch's experiment.
