What is the meaning of this excerpt from "Everyday Use" by Alice Walker? In real life I am a large, big-boned woman with rough,

man-working hands. In the winter I wear flannel nightgowns to bed and overalls during the day. I can kill and clean a hog as mercilessly as a man. My fat keeps me hot in zero weather. I can work outside all day, breaking ice to get water for washing; I can eat pork liver cooked over the open fire minutes after it comes steaming from the hog. One winter I knocked a bull calf straight in the brain between the eyes with a sledge hammer and had the meat hung up to chill before nightfall. But of course all this does not show on television. I am the way my daughter would want me to be: a hundred pounds lighter, my skin like an uncooked barley pancake. My hair glistens in the hot bright lights. Johnny Carson has much to do to keep up with my quick and witty tongue. A. Dee and her mother look and act exactly alike. B. Dee is ashamed of how her mother looks and acts. C. The mother wishes that she looked and acted like Dee. D. Dee is proud of her mother’s capabilities. E. Dee wishes to be exactly like her mother.

Most of the following selections were taken from letters-to-the-editor columns of news papers and magazines. Identify any fallac
Furkat [3]

Answer:

Appeal to pity.

Explanation:

A fallacy is elucidated as the error or flaw in reasoning or logic of an argument that makes it invalid and unsound and affects its validity.

'Appeal to pity' is demonstrated as the fallacy or illogical reasoning in which the arguer attempts to gain support of the audience through exploitation of the opponent's emotions of pity.

In the given example, <u>'appeal to pity'</u> fallacy has been demonstrated as the <u>author illogically aims to establish the truth of his conclusion('return of anti-semitism') and win audience's support emotionally by manipulating the opposition's sense of emotion or pity</u>('find it incredibly ironic that he and other Moral Majority types conveniently overlook the fact that they, too, pack away a pretty tidy sum themselves through their fund-raising efforts which is deplorable'). Thus, <u>'appeal to pity'</u> is the correct answer.
