Specifically, it DOES OR DOES NOT commit the fallacy of equivocation, and it DOES OR DOES NOT commit the fallacy of amphiboly.

Answers

Answer:

Passage A commits a fallacy but does not commit a fallacy of equivocation or amphiboly.

Passage B commits a fallacy and specifically commits a fallacy of equivocation.

Passage C commits a fallacy but does not commit a fallacy of equivocation or amphiboly.

Passage D does not commit a fallacy

Passage E commits a fallacy and specifically commits a fallacy of amphiboly.

Explanation:

A fallacy is an argument that isn't sound because it has a faulty logic. There are many different types of fallacies. The fallacies dealt in our example here: fallacy of equivocation and fallacy of amphiboly both deal with fallacies stemming from ambiguity of words or sentences such that they can mean so many things at the same time. While fallacy of equivocation deals with fallacies resulting from ambiguity caused by use of a word that could mean so many things, fallacy of amphiboly deals with fallacies from ambiguity of phrases and sentences.

Analyze the sentence to determine whether it contains a dangling construction or is written correctly. While driving to school, the front tire blew out.

Answers

Answer:

This sentence has a dangling construction.

Explanation:

A dangling modifier in a sentence is a word or phrase that is supposed to modify another word. A dangling modifier is one that does not refer to anything in specific, which makes it ambiguous. Let's take a look at the sentence:

"While driving to school, the front tire blew out."

The modifier is "while driving to school". Because of its position, it may initially sound as if the front tire was driving to school. We know that to be impossible, and that this modifier refers to a person who was driving. However, that person is not mentioned in the sentence, and that is precisely the problem here. The modifier is not referring to the word it should. One possible way to correct this dangling construction is to add the person who was performing the action to the sentence:

- While I was driving to school, the front tire blew out.

Which sentence would best fit in the recommendations paragraph of a report on ocean pollution?
This report proposes an investment in technologies aimed at preventing plastic from entering the oceans.
x Ocean cleanup companies have developed new technologies that can be used to remove garbage from the sea
One key finding in this report is that plastic pollution in the oceans is on pace to double in the next ten years.
This report will examine the impact of ocean pollution on climate change while examining what can be done to
combat it.

Answers

Answer:

One key finding in this report is that plastic pollution in the oceans is on pace to double in the next ten years.

Explanation:

These all COULD be in a report about this topic, but this one most directly relates, giving data about the main idea as opposed to data about how the main idea is related to another thing. This explians the elination of the 1st 2 options. I elimated the third option because that is not what the report is supposed to be about; it should be about ocean polution directly, not about howocean pollution effects cliamte change.

Hope this helps!

We can actually see here that the sentence that would best fit in the recommendations paragraph of a report on ocean pollution is: This report proposes an investment in technologies aimed at preventing plastic from entering the oceans.

What is report?

Report actually refers to a written or spoken account of an event, incident, problem, challenge or solution that one gives. Reports are given to inform, educate motivate.

Thus, we see here that the first option gives the best recommendation paragraph of a report on ocean pollution.

Punctuation refers to the marks, such as full stop, comma, and brackets, that are used in writing in order to separate the sentences and their elements and to clarify meaning. It refers to the tools used in writing to separate sentences, phrases, and clauses so that their meaning is clear.

Types of themes of The doll’s house Katherine mansfieldd

Answers

Answer:

One of the themes in this short story centers around the idea that every person ultimately craves inclusion.

The Kelvey girls are excluded from the social circles at school because of their poverty. They are "always by themselves," and the other girls ridicule them about their prospects of becoming servants when they grow up. They endure the mocking jeers of Lena, who drags one foot behind her, giggling behind her hand, as she attempts to engage Lil Kelvey in demeaning conversation. And every other girl gets invited to see the glorious doll house except the Kelvey girls.

They don't beg for an invitation like the other girls because they are used to rejection and exclusion. Yet when a chance opportunity presents itself, they follow Kezia "like two little stray cats" to share in the same experience that the other girls have enjoyed.

Explanation:

Based on this particular scene from Shakespeare's Macbeth, Macbeth is haunted by the ghost of Banquo who he murdered in the presence of guests and he begins to act strangely. He regains his composure and makes this speech, toasting to Banquo and saying he "miss" him and wish "he were here".
