Answer: The Elenchus
Explanation: Socrates' method of philosophy is most commonly known as The Elenchus or the dialectical method. Knowledge gained from this method was considered by Aristotle to be 'dialectical knowledge'. Dialectical knowledge was said to form the boundary between the theoretical and the practical aspects of knowledge.
The method of the Elenchus was (and still is, I assume), the following:
1. Raise the most important question (a kind of 'theory' or later 'thesis').
2. Investigate the question thoroughly to make sure that the very best answer is reached, by raising further questions, answering each of them ("they being smaller questions, it will be easier to answer them" --- paraphrasing Plato)
3. At the conclusion of the inquiry, to declare if the problem is solved, and if so, in what way of definition.
4. To continue philosophizing.
However, in Athens, Socrates' particular application of the Elenchus earned him the reputation of a 'gadfly' --- someone who perhaps didn't have the best good in mind (although, according to Plato, Socrates was always a helpful person, and didn't ask for any payments).
Breathe deeply and think positively. Breathing deeply will help to calm his nerves and clear his mind and help him to compose himself and thinking positively will allow him to see how he has been successful and what are the reasons for his success to share with the audience and realizing that since it is impromptu the audience will probably be more forgiving than if he had a prepared speech.
Answer:
sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
Explanation:
Newton's first law states that, if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.
Counter:
Most zoos treat animals very well. They also provide protection to the animals and have the ability to help endangered species.
Rebuttal:
Zoos are inhumane. It is wrong to keep living creatures captive. Animals in zoos usually do not have the ability to survive in the wild due to being fed by humans.
