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.

I would say it's A, because like the question stated, his curiosity, tends to overcome his judgement. But the thing about this is that this leads into C, because his curiosity comes before his judgement, so he is risking his life, to be curious...
Hope this helped!! :)
