English

Nostrana [21]3 years ago
6 0

A). An appeal to emotion is used to make people feel guilty if they do not support the legislation.

B). A false dilemma is used to claim that legislation is the only way to protect the environment.  

D). A bandwagon appeal is used to suggest that every American wants to help endangered species.

Explanation:

Fallacies are described as the flaw in the reasoning of an argument that makes it invalid or sound.

In the given passage, the author emotionally manipulates the audience to gain acceptance from them instead of logically persuading them. The statements like 'All Americans realize...If Congress fails to address this today, then we all lose' makes the audience feel guilty while going against the legislation. The a<u>uthor develops a false dilemma that misleads the readers regarding 'legislation being the only way to safeguard the environment</u>.' The bandwagon fallacy is displayed when the author makes an assumption that 'every American wish to help endangered species' on the basis of the majority which may not be valid all the time. Thus, <u>options A, B, and D</u> are the correct answers.

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

I had to do this project and its probably different from your experience but ill put my essay.

Explanation:

In 2019, if somebody told me that next year the world would be shut down and nobody could get within six feet of each other, I would have brought that person to a mental facility. The coronavirus is the most unimaginable, crazy period of time I (and probably the rest of the world) have ever lived through.

I’ve missed out on many things such as vacations, events, birthday parties, and fun activities. Towards the end of the sixth grade, there were all these fun activities and field trips planned since we were graduating elementary school. Only a week before all those activities were to start, the schools shut down and all we got was a driveby graduation at our school which I did actually enjoy but let's face it, that little event did not make up for the loads of things our grade was so very excited to do. My family was also supposed to go to Martha’s Vineyard with my aunt, cousin, and her fiance which we had started doing every summer, but we had to cancel it. The summer was nice though, as I went downtown a lot with my friends, went on my boat a lot, practiced sports, and swam in my  pool. I think we can all agree that the summer probably would have been better without a global pandemic to worry about.

Although it’s been hard, the coronavirus has had some upsides to it. I’ve been recently focusing on improving myself/health and if the pandemic hadn’t happened, I wouldn’t have as much time daily and throughout the year to make these improvements for myself. For example, I’ve been going to the local CrossFit gym every day after school and I even participated in a nutrition challenge and won! It built up my self confidence a lot and I'm as fit and as healthy as I've ever been thanks to the extra time I've had to better myself. A lot of people have been saying things about the coronavirus making them have depression, anxiety, and social anxiety and I suppose I gained a bit of that (who hasn’t?) but it’s been really nice to get to focus on myself for a whole year and try new things I've always wanted to do but haven’t had time for. The pandemic has changed me, in some ways for the better because I take things less for granted now and really care about my health, state of mind, and wellbeing much more.

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

A Conditioned stimulus.

Explanation:

'A Conditioned stimulus' is elucidated as the stimulus that was previously neutral eventually leads to evoke a learned response with training. Such a stimulus is contradictory to unconditioned or naturally occurring stimulus which triggers a specific response naturally while the former elicits a response through learning from the various factors.

As per the question, the 'opening of refrigerator' exemplifies a 'conditioned stimulus' as it evokes a learned response from the 'dog' as it runs to the kitchen every time 'refrigerator is opened'. Therefore, 'it demonstrates a conditioned stimulus' as Jasmine learns with time that 'every time the door is opened, he gets some food'.
