Zorluk: OrtaAnalyzing Bolded Statement Roles

Hospital administrators have proposed implementing a tele-triage system to redirect non-urgent emergency department patients to nearby clinics. Opponents argue that this initiative will reduce overall patient satisfaction because patients expect direct hospital care. However, these opponents fail to consider that non-urgent patients currently wait over four hours for treatment in the emergency department. Since nearby clinics complete treatments in less than an hour, the proposed tele-triage system will actually increase patient satisfaction.

In the argument above, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

  1. The first is a proposed plan that the argument defends against criticism; the second is the main conclusion of the argument.Cevap
  2. B
    The first is background context describing a general problem; the second is an intermediate conclusion that supports a broader claim.
  3. C
    The first is a proposed plan that the author opposes; the second is a premise offered to support the opponents' objection.
  4. D
    The first is a position advocated by opponents of a policy; the second is an intermediate conclusion drawn by the author.
  5. E
    The first is a proposed plan defended by the argument; the second is a factual premise supporting an intermediate conclusion.

Cevap

The statement describing the first bolded portion as a proposed plan defended by the argument and the second as the main conclusion correctly identifies both structural roles.
The correct option accurately identifies the two roles: the first bolded phrase introduces the proposed tele-triage plan that the author defends against critics, and the second bolded phrase expresses the author's main conclusion that the plan will ultimately increase patient satisfaction.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the main purpose of the author's argument and overall structure.
The author outlines a plan (tele-triage system), notes critics' objections regarding patient satisfaction, counters their rationale, and concludes that the system will increase patient satisfaction.
Identifying the author's stance and contrast points clarifies how each claim functions in the logical flow.
2
Evaluate the specific structural role of the first bolded statement.
The first bolded statement introduces the tele-triage proposal. The author goes on to refute critics of this proposal, showing the argument is designed to defend this plan.
Determining whether the author supports or rejects the first bolded claim eliminates options mischaracterizing the author's stance.
3
Evaluate the specific structural role of the second bolded statement.
The second bolded statement asserts that the tele-triage system will actually increase patient satisfaction. This is the main point the author aims to prove.
Distinguishing the main conclusion from supporting premises or intermediate claims establishes the precise role of the second bolded statement.
