Nezavi [6.7K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: In Merchant of Venice, Portia is a beautiful woman and obedient daughter, while Jessica is defiant and unreliable.

Explanation:

<em>The Merchant of Venice</em> is a comedy written by William Shakespeare. The main heroine of the play, Portia, is wealthy, beautiful, and so loyal that even after her father passed away, she respects the lottery protocol for potential suitors that her father set forth in his will. Jessica, on the other hand, disappoints her Jewish father (Shylock) by running away with a Christian (Lorenzo) and stealing his ducats, thus also abandoning her religion.

Write a report account to your new headteacher on how your school prefect was elected.​
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Responsibility. I loved taking on challenges, leading, and helping others. To me, being a prefect was a joy. I chose to go to the hardest dorm to prefect (the younger kids’ dorms) for my prefecting years. These kids often struggled with simple things like laundry and keeping to a good study/play schedule as well as were constantly home sick. I loved helping them establish a strong base to progress through high school with and making them feel welcome.

Working with School Leadership. As a young adult, I relished the opportunity to work with the adults in charge of my school. As a prefect, I had lots of time to talk to, spend time with , and learn from them. It is also a great way to get letters of reference from teachers…

Self-improvement. By volunteering myself as a figurehead for younger kids, I force myself to improve every day for them. I have to learn how to reinforce positive habits and weed out negative ones. I needed to learn to work with people with drastically different goals and perspectives.

Explanation:

In essence, leadership, responsibility, and self improvement.

Which best identifies the logical fallacy of this example
nata0808 [166]

This logical fallacy is called "ad hominem", which means "to the man" in latin. It means that, instead of debating about the specific question, you rather attack the person, in an attempt to discredit him and his words.

It is a logical fallacy because, when debating about anything, you should always and only talk about the actual point, instead of considering who said what.

If a serial killer claims that 2+2 equals 4, you can say something like "don't listen to him! He's a serial killer!". Yes, he may be one of the worst human being to have ever lived, but it doesn't change that this specific claim he made is true.
