The logical fallacy used in these lines is a <u><em>red herring</em></u> because <em><u>the mention of her skill as a musician is irrelevant to whether Sally would make a good president.</u></em>

A red herring is when one point is presented to try to distract you from another. To distract you from her being good at debates, the person says she is bad at playing the sax (which has nothing to do with being class president).

This logic is incorrect because they're saying Sally would be a bad class president because of her instrument playing, which doesn't have anything to do with being a class president. It mentions she's good at debates, so there's a good chance she would be a good class president.

Common English mistakes<br>Qhamisa is my cousin sister who is the most beautiful of them all​
timama [110]

Answer:

- Qhamisa is my cousin's sister who is the most beautiful of them all.

Explanation:

The given sentence contains a grammatical error in the usage of 'cousin sister.' As per the context of the sentence, <u>the correct form to be employed would be 'cousin's sister' as it is followed by an idea that establishes a comparison. In order to establish the superlative degree, the context of the cousin's must be plural</u> to denote that they are more than two(reflected through usage of all and superlative degree). Thus, the correct sentence would read as:

"Qhamisa is my cousin's sister who is the most beautiful of them all."

How does Vonnegut most clearly create irony in his story Harrison Bergeron
Dima020 [189]

There are three types of irony, verbal, situational, and dramatic. Verbal irony is the use of words to mean something different than what the person says. Situational irony is when something different happens than what is expected. Lastly, dramatic irony is when is when the audience is aware of something the characters are not.

In the story "Harrison Bergeron," Vonnegut employs dramatic irony. The audience is aware that Harrison was murdered by the government, but the characters although they witnessed it, cannot recall mere moments later that their own son was murdered. He was murdered for rejecting the government and their control over trying to make everyone equal and the same mechanisms caused his own parents to forget him.
