Why is the passage an example of deductive reasoning?

English

The passage is an example of deductive reasoning because:

The author is starting with a general topic and moving to more.

The author starts by saying that food prices have risen and ends by concluding that the poor will be the most affected by this occurrence. Deductive reasoning is also thought of as top-down logic, which means that one starts with the more general claims and works one's way down to specific claims. It differs from inductive reasoning, in which one starts with specific claims to reach a general conclusion. The author aims to be objective by stating facts rather than opinions and is not appealing to his audience's feelings.

Most likely that person has been doing things a certain way for so long that they're too stubborn to learn how to do it differently.

Answer: "if"

Explanation:

Signal words are referred to as the words that provide hints on what is expected to happen while one is reading.

The signal word that points to the problem in the passage is "if". From the text, we can see that Hughes knew that the meat that comes from a single cow could not make many people sick buy that the real danger was "if" the disease was passed to other cows.
