Answer:

The correct answer is the last part of the excerpt

Explanation:

The part of the excerpt from President Obama’s remarks on the Buffet Rule that uses the logical fallacy of false dilemma is: “Either you’ve got to borrow more money to pay down a deeper deficit, or you’ve got to demand deeper sacrifices from the middle class, and you’ve got to cut investments that helps us grow as an economy.”

A fallacy of false dilemma is when an idea is falsely claimed to be a situation of “this or that”. When the idea is “this thing can happen or the other thing is going to happen”. But the truth is that there is another option that can be contemplated. Just like the case of Obama´s words.

The Buffet Rule was a tax plan of President Barak Obama in 2011, that wanted to make a fairer tax system.

Read the excerpt from an adaptation of "To Build a Fire."
Igoryamba

Answer:

The man will realize the wisdom of the old-timer’s warning.

Explanation:

"To build a fire" is a short story by Jack London, this story is about a man who travels to the Yukon ignoring the warnings from an old-timer about the deathly Yukon winters (where temperatures can reach 40 below)

In this excerpt we can see the man saying he was safe, remembering the old-timer warning and thinking that the old-timers were "rather womanish". We can see that he thinks that the warning was not real and that he was safe and will be able to survive and deal with the subzero temperatures of the Yukon, thus, the best prediction based on this excerpt is that he will likely won't be able to continue with this streak of "safeness" and he will realize the wisdom of the old-timer's warning.
