Answer:

A. Ad hominem

Explanation:

In Latin, <em>Ad hominem</em> means ‘to the man.’ It is a logical fallacy that attempts to win an argument by undermining or insulting an opponent instead of focusing on the subject of the discussion or on disproving the soundness of what the opponent is actually saying. This fallacy often looks to deviate people's attention from the subject of discussion, and prove that since the opponent has such despicable characteristics, then what he or she is saying is not valid or unworthy of attention.

Make a hyperbole related to thanksgiving.

slava [35]

Hi there!
Thank you for posting your question on Brainly!

So, to put it simply, a hyperbole is a statement, but it’s not supposed to be taken literal. It’s an exaggeration. And you want one for thanksgiving... so it could be something like:

“The thanksgiving feast at my house was so big, it could’ve fed an army.”

Now we know that this person didn’t have enough food at that feast to feed an actual army, but from this hyperbole, we know that there was a lot of food at this feast.

Have a nice night and please contact me with any questions!

You can write a letter asking your pastor to come by the house to talk to your parents and remind them of their commitment, as explained below.

<h3>Writing a letter to your pastor</h3>

The following steps will help you write a letter to your pastor asking him to intervene as your parents have been quarreling in the house:

Begin by writing the date and the words, "Dear Pastor (name)."

Start the first paragraph with "I am writing to..." and then state your purpose. Make it clear that you need his help and that you wish he could come by your house.

In the second paragraph, explain the situation. Tell him your parents have been quarreling lately and how that has affected you and your siblings.

In the last paragraph, suggest day and time when the pastor could come over. Make it clear that his help and intervention would be much appreciated. Ask him to remind your parents of their commitment to each other and their family.

End the letter with, "Best regards," and your name.
