D. Parable is the correct answer
Answer:
This is an example of a failure of deductive reasoning.
Explanation:
Deductive reasoning is one that first analyzes two premises to reach a conclusion. If the text shown in the question above were an example of deductive reasoning done correctly, we should read: "we do not know B, nor C and therefore we cannot say that they are equal to A."
However, we see the narrator of the text presenting conclusions without evaluating the premises, presenting a false conclusion. This is an example of inductive reasoning failure.
Self-Sacrifice and Love could be possible themes of the story "The giving tree". The story shows that to make people that you love happy you may need to give something up which is important to you. The Giving Tree would be a touchy-feely story full of kindness and generosity. There's definitely kindness and generosity to be found in the story, but it's pretty one-sided. Sure, in the beginning, the tree loves the boy and the boy loves the tree, but things go kind of sideways from there. The boy doesn't always treat the tree well, but never the less the tree continues to love and give to the boy in order to keep him happy.
