Which excerpt from "There’s a Man in the Habit of Hitting Me on the Head with an Umbrella" illustrates why the man most likely c

ontinues to hit the narrator?
"It was the very same man who now, as I'm writing, keeps whacking me, mechanically and impassively, with an umbrella."
"On that occasion I turned around filled with indignation: he just kept on hitting me. I asked him if he was crazy: he didn’t even seem to hear me."
"Many times I have let him have it with punches, kicks, and even - God forgive me - umbrella blows. He would meekly accept the blows. He would accept them as though they were part of his job."
"And this is precisely the weirdest aspect of his personality: that unshakable faith in his work coupled with a complete lack of animosity."

The line "And this is precisely the oddest feature of his personality: that unshakable trust" describes why the man keeps hitting the narrator. thus, option D is correct.

<h3>What about the man is revealed in the excerpt?</h3>

According to the passage from the fourth answer option, the man displays "unwavering faith" and "absence of hatred." Another way to describe him is as having a stubborn personality but still being vulnerable to attack.

In light of this, we can select snippet four as the right response. Ironically, it also explains why the narrator beats the man while he continues to hit the man.

The excerpt illustrating why the man continues to hit the narrator is "And this is precisely the weirdest aspect of his personality: that unshakable faith..."

<h3>What does the excerpt reveal about the man?</h3>

The excerpt found in the fourth answer choice reveals that the man has "unshakable faith" and "lack of animosity." Another way to put it would be to say that he has a stubborn personality but, at the same time, easy to attack.

With that in mind, we can choose excerpt four as the correct answer. It explains why the man continues to hit the narrator and, ironically, why the narrator also beats the man.

Fallacies are a part of every valid argument.
nignag [31]
This is incorrect because for an argument to be valid it's premises have to be truthful. Fallacies are logical errors which make the premises untruthful and should therefore be avoided. There are various types of fallacies but most commonly they are divided into inductive and deductive fallacies.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

People do change.  Life experiences and maturity change people.  If anyone thinks back to what he was like at eighteen and what he is like at thirty, it would be miracle if changes had not been made in his personality and behaviour.  

There are so many events in a person's life that will alter his behaviour and even his/her way of looking at things: marriage, children, jobs, parents' deaths, money problems, divorce, health problems. All of these occurrences will alter the way a person acts and thinks.  

Every stage of a person's life will bring different attitudes and changes in what a person does.  Sometimes, the changes are for the better. There are instances when a person becomes bitter as he ages. As a person ages, his priorities change. Health issues move to the forefront. Health insurance and doctors become a part of life.

The point is that everyone changes as life events occur. No one stays the same.
