Answer: A. it is not logical; the author ignores other possibilities-that the patient is cured and the doctor still gets his fee, for example.

The justification that Ruskin gives for his argument is not a very strong one. He states that doctors would rather lose the fee they are supposed to be paid rather than kill their patient. This is probably true, but it is overly simplistic. It ignores several other possibilities, for example, the possibility of lower fees, the possibility of the patient not dying, but being uncomfortable for longer, or the possibility of changing jobs if the pay is low.

why do real-estate salespeople use the term home more often than house, even though both words mean essentially the same thing?
Setler79 [48]
That is because of the connotation. The denotation for house and home is a place of residence, however, our minds perceive the word house as neutral and generic while home is something that is close to us and brings us safety and security. That is an advertising ploy.

In writing, what are the bridges that connect ideas within and between paragraphs.
svp [43]
In writing, the bridges that connect ideas within and between paragraphs are referred to as "transitions". Transitions can be extremely important in writing to keep the reader interested and engaged in the material.
