Day 141 The city of Grandview has provided annual funding for the Grandview Symphony since the symphony's inception ten years ago

The following appeared in a memo to the board of the Grandview Symphony.

“The city of Grandview has provided annual funding for the Grandview Symphony since the symphony's inception ten years ago. Last year the symphony hired an internationally known conductor, who has been able to attract high-profile guest musicians to perform with the symphony. Since then, private contributions to the symphony have doubled and attendance at the symphony's concerts-in-the-park series has reached new highs. Now that the Grandview Symphony is an established success, it can raise ticket prices. Increased revenue from larger audiences and higher ticket prices will enable the symphony to succeed without funding from the city government.”

Write a response in which you discuss what specific evidence is needed to evaluate the argument and explain how the evidence would weaken or strengthen the argument.

【本题与Day 61、Day 139相似，不同之处在于，本题还可以反驳：吸引了更多著名的演奏家参加演出是否可能会导致费用增加，从而使利润减少呢？另外， concerts-in-the-park series的上座率提升了，其他演出的情况如何呢？一定是上升的吗？】
