What are logical fallacies? Name two types and explain what they are.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Logical fallacies are errors in reasoning that are based on poor or faulty logic. Two logical fallacies are a Strawman Argument and Appeal to Ignorance

Strawman Argument: of having the impression of refuting an argument, whereas the proper idea of argument under discussion was not addressed or properly refuted.

Appeal to Ignorance: It asserts that a proposition is true because it has not yet been proven false or a proposition is false because it has not yet been proven true.

Explanation:

Some of this is quoted.

Answer 2

Answer:

There are two main categories of logical errors: formal fallacies and informal fallacies. "The term 'formal' refers to the structure of an argument and the branch of logic that is most concerned with structure—deductive reasoning. All formal fallacies are errors in deductive reasoning that render an argument invalid.

In animal farm name 3 similarities between the movie scene and chapter 2?

Answers

Answer: I haven’t read or watched this movie, but from evidence I have concluded that this piece of evidence will further help you piece details or similarities from the movie. Hope it helps, have a great day!

Explanation: By the end of the second chapter, the precise parallels between the Russian Revolution and the plot of Animal Farm have emerged more clearly. The Manor Farm represents Russia under the part-feudal, part-capitalist system of the tsars, with Mr. Jones standing in for the moping and negligent Tsar Nicholas II. Old Major serves both as Karl Marx, who first espoused the political philosophy behind communism, and as Vladimir Lenin, who effected this philosophy’s revolutionary expression. His speech to the other animals bears many similarities to Marx’s Communist Manifesto and to Lenin’s later writings in the same vein. The animals of the Manor Farm represent the workers and peasants of Russia, in whose name the Russian Revolution’s leaders first struggled. Boxer and Clover, in particular, embody the aspects of the working class that facilitate the participation of the working class in revolution: their capacity for hard work, loyalty to each other, and lack of clear philosophical direction opens them up to the more educated classes’ manipulation.

The pigs play the role of the intelligentsia, who organized and controlled the Russian Revolution. Squealer creates propaganda similar to that spread by revolutionaries via official organs such as the Communist Party newspaper Pravda. Moses embodies the Russian Orthodox Church, weakening the peasants’ sense of revolutionary outrage by promising a utopia in the afterlife; the beer-soaked bread that Mr. Jones feeds him represents the bribes with which the Romanov dynasty (in which Nicholas II was the last tsar) manipulated the church elders. Mollie represents the self-centered bourgeoisie: she devotes herself to the most likely suppliers of luxuries and comfort.

Answers

Answer:

b. The sharp cries and movements of the bird's family.

Explanation:

Ted Hudges' poem "The Laburnum Top" revolves around the relationship between the tree and a goldfinch bird. The poem delves into how the two depend on each other for their survival.

The laburnum was beautiful in the autumn but quiet. But all this changed after the arrival of the goldfinch birds, with the baby birds all noisily chirping around at the arrival of the mother with food. This is revealed in the lines:

"Then sleek as a lizard, and alert, and abrupt,

She enters the thickness, and a machine starts up

Of chitterings and a tremor of wings, and trilling

The whole tree trembles and thrills"

Thus, the correct answer is option b.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The main life lesson we can learn from 'The Adventures of Tom Sawyer "is that honesty is rewarding and that it can promote very good things both personally, socially and politically. Tom takes time to understand this, but once he realizes that truth , he gets rid of a big burden in his life, that is, he has a great green feeling of freedom. In relation to honesty, we can consider that young people today have difficulties in relating to this, because they live in the world where the dishonesty is encouraged, if it benefits themselves, in addition, young people must face the lack of honesty of humans in politics, in family relationships, in communities, among others.

What is the theme of the story, "The Difficulty of Crossing a Field" by Ambrose Bierce?

Answers

Answer:

I believe the theme of the story revolves around truth and how it can be defined or changed by those who have more power.

Explanation:

Ambrose Bierce's "The Difficulty of Crossing a Field" is a one-page short story. A man named Williamson is crossing a field when he suddenly disappears. However, only two people are listened to and believed when it comes to this strange fact - Mr. Wren and his son. But most importantly, Mr. Wren and his son are white men who own some land. Williamson's own wife and the slaves working on the field are not listened to or believed at all. The wife is even said to have lost her mind. The inferiority of Africans and women is clearly shown - and let's make it clear that Bierce is criticizing such an action. Everyone saw his disappearance, everyone came up with different explanations to it, but the woman and the slaves were not considered worthy of being heard and trusted. The "truth" in the end is something chosen, established by a few.

A)
Ricardo felt great sadness
B)

C)
None of these are adjectival phrases
D)
whose big, brown eyes leaked with tears

Answers

Answer: A
I hope this helps you !

An adjective means to describe something.

C would be out of the question.

B would be a verb because it is an action, for example, run, jump, dropping your ice cream.

A is not describing, it is implying his feelings.

So we are left with D that is appropriately describing Ricardo's little sister.

So to put quite simply, you're answer would be:

D.

Wolfshiem Jordan Baker Daisy's wedding Gatsby's mansion Based on the four items in Question #1, which three belong together (and WHY), and which does not belong

Answers

Answer:

I believe the three items that belong together are:

Jordan Baker

Daisy's wedding

Gatsby's mansion

Explanation:

"The Great Gatsby" is a novel by American author F. Scott Fitzgerald.

At a certain point in the story, the narrator Nick talks to Jordan Baker, a woman who is friends with Nick's cousin, Daisy. Jordan tells Nick that around five years before, Daisy met a young officer named Gatsby, and they fell in love. Gatsby left for the war, and Daisy, due to her position in life and expectations from her family, ended up getting engaged to Tom Buchanan.

Before her wedding, however, Daisy remembers how she felt about Gatsby and almost calls it all off. She changes her mind, and marries Tom. Five years later, Gatsby reappears. He is now a millionaire and lives in mansion chosen precisely because it is located across the bay from Daisy's house.

As we can see, there is connection between the three elements "Jordan Baker", "Daisy's wedding," and  "Gatsby's mansion". Wolfsheim is Gatsby's business partner, so to speak, but he does not directly connected to the other items here.

Teddy shouted to the house: "Oh, look here! Our mongoose is killing a snake"; and Rikki-tikki heard a scream from Teddy's mother. His father ran out with a stick, but by the time he came up, Karait had lunged out once too far, and Rikki-tikki had sprung, jumped on the snake's back, dropped his head far between his fore-legs, bitten as high up the back as he could get hold, and rolled away. That bite paralysed Karait, and Rikki-tikki was just going to eat him up from the tail, after the custom of his family at dinner, when he remembered that a full meal makes a slow mongoose, and if he wanted all his strength and quickness ready, he must keep himself thin.
