There is no italicized pronoun, but since there is only one present in the sentence, I give you this answer:

When chicken eggs are hatched, they are weak and barely able to move around. They here should refer to the "chicks" However, in the sentence it looks like it refers to the "chicken eggs". This is incorrect. The pronoun, then, is an (2) implied antecedent and needs to be stated. Instead of the given sentence, one should say: When chicken eggs are hatched, the chicks are weak and barely able to move around.

Read this excerpt from Frankenstein: It is impossible to communicate to you a conception of the trembling sensation, half fearfu

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The full question is:

Read this excerpt from Frankenstein.

It is impossible to communicate to you a conception of the

trembling sensation, half fearful, with which I am preparing

to depart. I am going to unexplored regions. ... Shall I

meet you again, after having traversed immense seas, and

returned by the most southern cape of Africa or America? |

dare not expect such success, yet I cannot bear to look on

the reverse of the picture. ... Remember me with

affection, should you never hear from me again.

Which words best describe the overall tone of this passage?

A. Calm and contemplative

B. Excited and cautious

C. Tentative and curious

D. Resentful and angry

The answer is B. Excited and cautious.

Explanation:

Going through the text, the writer's excitement is communicated with words like "trembling sensation". He is excited about the journey he is about to take but he is also aware of the dangers, therefore cautious.

So as he writes, he takes care not to expect much success. He also anticipates that he may not return, hence the line "should you never hear from me again".

He is clearly excited about his journey but cautious about the dangers and cautious enough not to ignite hope about his return to whoever he is writing to.

Which statement best explains why the evidence provided in the text is a fallacy? The speaker uses anecdotal evidence with phras

MrRissso [65]

Fallacy is the use of faulty arguments which are not valid and as such are rendered untrue because of the way they are presented in the argument. Some fallacies look valid, but are still fallacious because they do not satisfy an important logical premise.

As a result of this, we can see that there are various types of fallacy and they include:

Fallacy of Hasty Generalisation
Argumentum ad Baculum
Argumentum ad Hominem
Slippery Slope

For example, when we use Argumentum ad Baculum (appeal to force), we try to make use of force to silence a person who has made a very valid and logical argument.

For example, when you tell a person, "I will soon slap you if you do not close up your mouth" is an appeal to force or Argumentum ad Baculum
