DIAGNOSTIC TEST

1. ANALYTICAL WRITING 1: ANALYZE AN ISSUE
a. You will be given a brief quotation that states or implies an issue of general interest, and you will also be
given specific instructions on how to respond to that issue.
2. All too of
a. All too often companies appear to operate solely on behalf of company profit and not on the behalf of
employee profit. In other words, I agree mostly that for the most part companies seek simple and cost
efficient solutions such as hiring outside consultants; rather than searching for an all comprehensive
solution with the goal of benefiting everyone in the company. The issue titers on perspective. From the
employees perspective, being overlooked in finding solutions to increase your own efficiency creates
animosity, unappreciation and an overall lackluster approach to future work. Furthermore I also agree
that for the most part, if companies were to spend time finding solutions within, hiring consultants
would not only be unnecessary but would produce more effiecient and profitable business.
b.
c. The true expertise are the employees of companies. They represent the day to day operations,
management and production of the business. The company in essence is a collection of its employees.
To consider an outside consultant more experienced than a long-term employee is unjust.
d.
e. However, it all depends on who the company wants to represents and then the overall goal of the
company. If the company's power represents a select few that only want to increase profit and lower
cost. Hiring an outside consultant would certaintly improve the companies efficieny by teaching the
empoloyees certain tips on how to improve; however the core issues and maximal room for
improvement would not be accomplished. Simply, because the employee does not benefit. It comes
down to incentive versus education. Most people are able to learn, but in able for true application of
that learning and incentive must be presented.

Analytical Writing Argument Essay


When looking at the big picture, more specifically considering the close to 6 billion people spanning across the entire
globe , the argument that a single flu incoluation shouldn't be routinely administered due to the possibility that a person
might die due to innoculation lacks perspective. The evaluation of number of people infected, the magnitude of the
area in which the diesease is detected as well as the deaths per innoculations rate need to be determined. Without a
scale for comparison being established, the importance of the cow flu inoculation can not be established. For example if
one considers 10 lives many lives versus 100 lives many lives, then the death of 1/10 compared to the death of 1/100
changes the severitiy of the need to permit inoculations.

On the other hand, the consideration of the possibility that a person will die as a result of the innoculation advocates for
the individual decisions which is thus universal. So, the evidence which points out the uncertainty of the importance of
the innoculation becomes mute because they do not allow vaccines to be routinely administered. They allow the
individual to assess and make the decision. In addition if the cow flu vaccine can be isolated to specific areas then the
need for permitted routine innoculations appears pointless and redundant. If the cow flu is only found in certain areas
the people potentially exposed will feel the need to be vaccinated voluntarily. The specificity of the location and
detection of the disease renders a forced innoculation unnecessary.


In conclusion, the argument's flaws are enhanced by the lack of comparison to other flu innoculations, leaving the
severity of the disease unknown. In contrast the argument's logic is supported by the decision not to permit a routinely
admistered innoculation due to a potential death to innoculation. Even with the lack of concrete data such as the death
due to innoculation to administered innoculation rate, the argument sufficiently supported. It establishes the necessity
for innoculation for the people located in the area where the disease is detected, which indeed might save many lives if
exposed to the cow flu.
