1 answer:

8 0

The argument that uses a non sequitur fallacy is C, "Regulations on motorists should be lifted because factories are a bigger source of pollution"

Explanation: Non sequitur fallacy is when the conclusion doesn't follow the premises. That said in different words, the premises is an irrelevant reason to support the conclusion.

So, as true as it is that factories are a bigger source of pollution, the conclusion does not follow from the premises. The fact that regulations on motorists should be lifted, does not necessarily mean that the reason to do that is that factories are a bigger source of pollution.

1. In a response of no fewer than two paragraphs, discuss the theme of Sara Teasdale's "Barter" and the poetic devices she uses

vitfil [10]

Barter tries to convince the reader that there is beauty in life. All of the similes and metaphors used in the poem illustrate this. "Music like a curve of gold," "Blue waves whitened on a cliff," "Holding wonder like a cup," "one white singing hour of peace" all serve as examples for the beauty that can be found in simple moments and sensations.
The poem is written in rhymed iambic tetrameter. This helps the poem sound more musical.
Hope this helps.
