Answer:

D) Circular reasoning

Explanation:

Circular reasoning is a type of fallacy in which person starts an argument with what they are trying to end. In other words the start and end of the reason argument is the same.

In this statement reader expects that they statement should end somewhat like this, "giving students more days to study on their own and still spend some time with family" etc. But the statement ends on from where it started i.e. closing schools on Mondays or Fridays (in addition to usual Saturdays and Sundays) making it a three-day weekend.

Another example of circular reasoning can be "he was sick because he had temperature".

Bandwagon fallacy is an assumption that something is valid because majority of the people think so.

Example: Investing in stock exchange is beneficial because everyone thinks so.

Ad Hominem fallacy is attacking the character or circumstances of an individual who is about to give some argument.

Example: Don't believe him, he is a liar"

False causation fallacy means assuming an event to be the cause of some other even just because one occurred after the other.

Example:

Last Sunday, I invited Joseph and it rained; now I will never invite him on Sundays.
