Many corporations have begun decorating their halls with motivational posters in hopes of boosting their employees’ motivation to work productively. However, almost all employees at these corporations are already motivated to work productively. So these corporations’ use of motivational posters is unlikely to achieve its intended purpose.
The reasoning in the argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that the argument

  1. fails to consider whether corporations that do not currently use motivational posters would increase their employees’ motivation to work productively if they began using the posters
  2. takes for granted that, with respect to their employees’ motivation to work productively, corporations that decorate their halls with motivational posters are representative of corporations in general
  3. fails to consider that even if motivational posters do not have one particular beneficial effect for corporations, they may have similar effects that are equally beneficial
  4. does not adequately address the possibility that employee productivity is strongly affected by factors other than employees’ motivation to work productively
  5. fails to consider that even if employees are already motivated to work productively, motivational posters may increase that motivation

Atrens: An early entomologist observed ants carrying particles to neighboring ant colonies and inferred that the ants were bringing food to their neighbors. Further research, however, revealed that the ants were emptying their own colony’s dumping site. Thus, the early entomologist was wrong.
Atrens’s conclusion follows logically if which one of the following is assumed?

  1. Ant societies do not interact in all the same ways that human societies interact.
  2. There is only weak evidence for the view that ants have the capacity to make use of objects as gifts.
  3. Ant dumping sites do not contain particles that could be used as food.
  4. The ants to whom the particles were brought never carried the particles into their own colonies.
  5. The entomologist cited retracted his conclusion when it was determined that the particles the ants carried came from their dumping site.

Antonio: One can live a life of moderation by never deviating from the middle course. But then one loses the joy of spontaneity and misses the opportunities that come to those who are occasionally willing to take great chances, or to go too far.

Antonio and Marla disagree over

  1. whether it is desirable for people occasionally to take great chances in life
  2. what a life of moderation requires of a person
  3. whether it is possible for a person to embrace other virtues along with moderation
  4. how often a person ought to deviate from the middle course in life
  5. whether it is desirable for people to be moderately spontaneous
