Explanation:

An appeal to logic

Answer 2

Answer:

B. A false dilemma

Explanation:

False dilemma is a kind of error that produces some kind of situation when, in fact, more than just the two options mentioned in the speech are available. Notice that President Reagan states that the Soviet Union only has two choices: 'It requires or would be redundant to reform radically.' The Soviet Union has, of course, many options taking into account all of the measures that a nation might choose to pursue. Nevertheless, Reagan sounds like that's the only two choices. Like any other error, false dilemmas are used in order to persuade the audience of the opinion of the speaker. It can be deceptive, however.
