Answer:

D).  A shoplifter like you could never have a wise opinion.

Explanation:

Non Sequitur fallacy is elucidated as the fallacy in which the conclusion is not logically supported by its premises. It makes the argument flawed and affects the validity of the argument.

The last argument involves a non sequitur fallacy as the conclusion 'you could  never have a wise opinion' does not follow the premises 'a shopkeeper like you.'  <u>The reason fails to justify the conclusion logically which makes the argument flawed and affects its validity</u>. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

Answer:

B. Elect me as mayor because I have the most money.

Explanation:

<u>Non sequitur fallacy is a type of fallacy that is illogical</u>. This type of fallacy fails to follow a reasonable pattern in making its conclusion. the conclusion given or arrived at has no connection to what has been stated in the previous statements.

In the given sentences, the one with a non sequitur fallacy is the one in which the statement presents a person asking to be elected mayor because of his wealth. There is no connection between the mayorship and money, which leads to the fallacy that the conclusion of being elected mayor is illogical and unrelated to one's financial condition.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

In the story, Phoebe considers herself American while her grandfather views her as Greek. What contributes to how someone views
prisoha [69]

According to a different source, this question refers to the story "Blue-Sky Home" by Lisa Papademetriou.

In this story, Phoebe is half-Greek, but she was born in America, and she does not consider herself to be Greek. However, her grandfather considers her to be Greek. The main factor in this is the fact that Phoebe is not acquainted with Greek culture. What contributes the most to how someone views himself is the cultural practices that they grew up with. If someone follows particular culinary or religious practices and celebrates traditional holidays, it is more likely that the person will feel identified with that culture. Other factors can include being fluent in the language of the place, or visiting this country regularly.

How would you describe how the death of their four-year-old son set off a disastrous chain of events for the family
Dimas [21]

It would give the mother and father depression, causing them to be too sad for work. They’d cry on their papers and probably refuse to do them. Then they’d get fired, and would’nt get a payment. Without money, they can’t pay taxes or bills, so they get kicked out of their apartment or home. Then they’d become homeless, and an aunt, uncle, or grandparent would have to take care of them and let them live with them, but handling people with depression would be too difficult, causing the relatives to overwork, not getting enough sleep.
