StrengthenDiff: Easy
Logic Breakdown
Passage Summary: Since almost everyone is tired and being tired makes people cranky and dangerous, we should let people pick their own work hours.
Conclusion: The structure of the workday should be changed to provide employees with flexible scheduling.
Reasoning: Sleep deprivation is widespread and leads to negative social consequences like irritability and poor judgment.
Analysis: There is a significant logical gap between the existence of sleep deprivation and the proposed solution of flexible work hours. The argument assumes that the current rigid workday is the primary cause of the sleep deprivation and that flexibility would actually solve it. To strengthen this, look for an answer that confirms flexible hours actually lead to more or better sleep for employees. It would also be helpful to find evidence that the benefits of reduced irritability and better decision-making outweigh any logistical headaches caused by non-traditional schedules.
