Explanation:

The terms used here are fallacies and they have been correctly matched to the statements above.

A fallacy is the use of faulty, invalid or inaccurate reasoning to make an argument.

Fallacy is used by us many times in our day to day correspondence with others. We use it to try and 'win' an argument with someone without even knowing we are committing a fallacy.

For example, telling someone that because you cheated in a test and got high grades, therefore, everyone that gets high grades in a test cheated is a fallacy of hasty generalization.

Proofread the following text and correct the three subject-verb disagreements.
Softa [21]

Answer:

Answer is in the explanation.

Explanation:

In grammatically correct sentences, subject and verb must agree in person (first, second, third) and in number (singular, plural). The given passage has three disagreements:  

1) ...<em>the fate of the diamond were unknown</em>...

Since <em>the fate</em> is third-person singular it needs to be followed by a verb <em>was </em>

2) <em>neither men or conflict have dimmed... </em>

It is a general rule that when we have a neither/nor (either/or) construction, the verb agrees with the closest subject ( in this case<em> the conflict</em>) which is in the third person singular, so it needs to be followed by the verb<em> has</em>

3) ... <em>the twin eighty-year-old brothers suggests.</em>..

The subject here is<em> the twin brothers</em> (they) which is third person plural, so the following verb must be <em>suggest</em>
