This winter, we are studying the Analytical Writing Assessment (AWA) task

of the GMAT. Questions used are all from the Pool of Sample Topics available in

the Official Guide. Be prepared for that some of the questions will look

familiar when you actually take the test.

Now, we will be reading the question:

「Question No. 88」

The following appeared in an ad for a book titled How to Write a Screenplay

for a Movie:

“Writers who want to succeed should try to write film screenplays rather

than books, since the average film tends to make greater profits than does even

a best-selling book. It is true that some books are also made into films.

However, our nation’s film producers are more likely to produce movies based on

original screenplays than to produce films based on books, because in recent

years the films that have sold the most tickets have usually been based on

original screenplays.”

Introduction

Body

First, 【Point of doubt 1: 常见逻辑疑点：范畴问题】 being a successful writer is not

limited to being able to write works sell; success, in fact, also includes being

well-recognized or renowned, or winning awards. Second, 【Point of doubt 2:

常见逻辑疑点：地点范围问题】 the situation that the market responds favorably to movies based

on original screenplays may happen only in the author’s nation, and, in other

countries, film producers may prefer to make movies adapted from books. Third,

【Point of doubt 3: 常见逻辑疑点：时间范围问题】 the good sales of tickets may be a temporary

situation that is happening only during recent years, and the sales may drop in

the future. The author’s suggestion based on the pessimistic prediction, which

cannot be so sure, is therefore dubious. 【Point of doubt 4: 常见逻辑疑点：cost, sales,

and profits之间关系】 In addition, the author cannot safely assume that having sold

the most tickets guarantees tremendous profitability. Since both the prices and

the costs are unknown, the author cannot be certain about the profits. 【Point of

doubt 5: 常见逻辑疑点：“比较”关系】 Plus, although those films have sold the largest number

of tickets, the number is not necessarily a large number; instead, it may be a

moderate or even small number that is just larger than other numbers. 【Point of

doubt 7:】 Another point of doubt of the argument is that the greater profits may

not be solely attributed to the screenplays on which the films are based

although the average film tends to make greater profits than does even a

best-selling book. There may be other contributing factors. For example, a good

cast could also make a film financially successful. 【Point of doubt 8:】 If

writers write screenplays with the intent that the production will make money,

the screenplays may be abandoned by the producers, because the producers’

selection of screenplays may be based on the quality rather than the financial

potential of the stories.
