Excerpt from No Cons, All Pros for Reality Shows
Dontavious Tindell
My mom claims that reality shows have made young people more rude and aggressive, but without reality shows, young
people would be even more aggressive and rude because they wouldn't have a legitimate outlet for their anti-social impulses.
My mom refuses to recognize that reality shows dominate the airwaves because they are so popular. If they're so corrosive
and decadent, how could millions of people tune in every week to watch these shows? Can millions of people be wrong?
What I truly can't understand is why my mom isn't excited about the money I could bring home from 'The Coolest Kid in
School-almost $100,000 that could go straiglt to my college fund! If for no other reason, my mom should be excited about
me getting on a reality show because I'm now going to be on a reality show.
The line "My mom claims that reality shows have made young people more rude and aggressive, but without reality shows, young
people would be even more aggressive and rude because they wouldn't have a legitimate outlet for their anti-social impulses," is
an example of which logical fallacy?
A)
ad hominem
B)
red herring
C)
false causation
D)
straw man

This is the story one Friday morning

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Hello. Although you have informed the text to which this question refers, you have not informed the specific part of the text to which you are asking and referring, which makes it impossible to answer that question in a specific way.

However, when it comes to "One Friday Morning" we can consider disappointment as the climate of history as a whole. That's because in these stories we are introduced to a black girl who was prevented from following her dreams and had her talent reneged and devalued because society was racist. In this way, the reader is disappointed by a very promising young black woman who was prevented from pursuing the goals she had.

The story is about a girl who was discriminated against in her school because she was black. The correct option is C:-disappointment

Describes the mood of the selection at the beginning?

In The HIke how does the narrator depict the character of Mr.arseno?​

Answers

Answer:

Mr. Ben was depicted as an adventurous man, who did not listen to warnings.

Explanation:

In "The Hike", by Drew Magary, the main character, Ben was a business man who left his wife Teresa and three children to go on a trip to Philadelphia. There, he decided to go on a hike even after he was told that there was no path or trail for people to go on a hike by the woman who managed the hotel.

His insistence resulted in a troublesome adventure where he encountered so many weird incidents like the dog-faced men who killed people. He met his former school mate who disappeared in the morning and an old woman named Mrs. Blackwell who promised to lead him to Courtshire. In summary, it was a very scary adventure that caused him to get lost in the path.

In “The Hike” written by Drew Magary, the narrator depicts the character of Mr. Arseno as a fun and easy-going guy. He is also described as an adventurous guy, but he never listened to any warnings.

“The Hike” written by Drew Magary

The answer is further explained as given below:

• The main character Ben was an adventurous person, who left behind his life to go on a hike. He was also a little careless, as he did not listen to the warning given to him that there was no path for hiking, in the area which he was headed to.

• After not listening to the warnings, Ben had a lot of weird incidents happen to him and he faced a lot of things in his path, and he also lost his path due to it.

Therefore, the correct answer is that the narrator describes Mr. Arseno as a fun-loving guy who could be a little careless sometimes.

When World War II ended in Europe in 1945, the victorious Allies, as part of the peace treaty, divided Germany into four parts—one each for the United States, England, France, and Russia. The Soviet Union gained control of the eastern part of the country, while the other three Allied nations controlled the western part. (Eventually these sections became East Germany and West Germany, respectively.) This division of the country was also duplicated in the capital city of Berlin, with the Allied section in the western part of the city and the Soviet section in the east.

Multiple new sources have printed stories about secret government programs. Why do some people see the papers’ actions as patriotic whereas others think the publishers should be tried under the Espionage Act?

Answers

Answer: People may view these actions as patriotic because the papers’ are putting things that the government have been dishonest about into question. This may also be viewed as patriotic, becuse it is putting these programs out into the open, so that the public is aware of the things that the government may have been trying to hide. Others may veiw these actions as wrong because they may think that the govenment has a right to hide certain things. Some may think that the publishers should be tried under the Espionage Act because they may veiw the story as being disloyal to the government, as well as invading the governments privacy.
