Explanation:
Non sequitur refers to a stated conclusion that is not necessarily a logical result of the facts presented. In the answer, the fact that all the houses in the area are expensive does not necessarily imply that they are well-built.
Other examples of non sequitur are:
<em>I've lived in this town for a long time and my grandfather was the first mayor, so I'm against putting fluoride in the drinking water!</em>
<em />
<em>Matt likes cooking, which involves food, so he should work at a grocery store.</em>
The operation or activity of two or more things at the same time or rate
This is what I've come up with
Answer:
Its - car
This - More and more physicians are beginning to look not just for illnesses but also for patients' habits with long-term health implications
Its - cow
Someone - no antecedent
It - antecedent not clear
Explanation:
The antecedent of a pronoun is the word or phrase whose place the pronoun takes. In some cases, the antecedent is obvious, while in others it's either missing or not clear.
In the first and third sentences, it's simple. In the first sentence, a car's transmission is mentioned. Instead of repeating the word <em>car</em>, we will use the pronoun<em> it</em> and its possessive form <em>its</em><em>.</em> It's the same in the third sentence (cow's tail - its tail).
The second example is interesting because the antecedent of the pronoun <em>this</em> is the entire previous sentence.
In the fourth sentence, the antecedent is missing. We don't know instead of what word the pronoun <em>someone</em> is used.
In the fifth, the antecedent is not clear as the pronoun <em>it </em>could be used to refer to the word <em>rain</em>, or the word <em>mud</em>.
He kills Macduff, which isn't there so D - None of the above.
