问答题The following appeared in a memorandum written by the vice president of Nature’s Way, a chain of stores selling health food and other health-related products.  “Previous experience has shown that our stores are most profitable in areas where residents are highy concerned with leading healthy lives. We should therefore build our next new store in Plalnsville, which has many such residents. Plainsiville merchants report that sales of running shoes and exercise dothiog are at all-time highs. The local health club, which nearly closed five years ago due to lack of business, has more members than ever, and the weight training and aerobics classes are always full. We can even anticipate a new generation of customers: Plainsiville’s schoolchildren are required to participate in a ‘fitness for life’ program, which emphasizes the benefits of regular exercise at an early age.”  Discuss how well-reasoned you find this argument. In your discussion, be sure to analyze the line of reasoning and the use of evidence in the argument. For example, you may need to consider what questionable assumptions underlie the thinking and what alternative examples or counterexamples might weaken the conclusion. You can also discuss what sort of evidence would strengthen or refute the argument, what changes in the argument would make it more logically sound, and what, if anything, would help you better evaluate its conclusion.
