Answer: D) Irony.

Explanation: an irony is a state of affairs or an event that seems contrary to what one expects and it often has an amusing result. So when the writer communicates his/her intent by stating its exact opposite, he/she is using an irony. A simile is a comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, this comparison is made using the words "like" and "as."  A metaphor is also a comparison but it is direct (it doesn't use the wors "like" or "as"). Imagery is a literary device that consists in the use of figurative language to evoke the senses of the reader and to create a mental picture. So the correct answer is option D.

Can someone please help me right a perfect email to my teacher !

Answer:

Dear Mr. /Miss...

I am curious about your favorite candy! Do you prefer Chocolate or Gummy bears, Chips or Candy Corn, Soda or Energy drinks? There are so many different candy's that it is almost impossible to keep track, but not just with the quantity with the quality too! You may ask what my point is. It is simple : We are checking every day on quality: Is the car good? Does my phone have a good capacity? But why don't we care how good the Candy's actually are for us? In one cane of Coke there are 17 cubes of sugar (if there is even real sugar in there, because some companies are using substitutes!) and in one flavor of gummy bears aren't even real fruits used! Why don't we care about food and especially about candy's?

Thank you for your time and have a nice day!

...

Hope that helps!

"These days, parents neglect to watch their children's social media use." This sentence is an example of which logical fallacy?
nignag [31]

In the sentence "These days, parents neglect to watch their children's social media use", we find an example of the hasty generalization fallacy.

Hasty generalization does not present enough evidence to support the argument made and, therefore, generalizes a fact. In the sentence above, there is an affirmation that parents do not watch their children's social media use. How can the speaker state this? Who are these parents: all of them? Just a percentage? What about the parents who do watch their kids' use of social media? Do they not count?

As for the other options given, let's take a look at a brief description of what they mean:

Non sequitur is when a conclusion does not follow the evidence presented. It's an absurd conclusion, considering the information given. --> People like watching movies. Movies have violence. Therefore, having some violence happen to people is desirable.

Post hoc is a fallacy in which the speaker assumes there is a connection between events simply because they happened one after the other. That is, if B happened after A, then B happened because of A. --> If it rained after I had an ice cream, then it rained because I had the ice cream.

False analogy happens when the speaker analyzes two different facts under the same point of view and conditions, drawing a conclusion that is far-fetched. --> Monica is from South America. Alice is also from South America. Therefore, Monica and Alice are from the same country.
