English

Answer:

D. All I can say about my rival's idea is that he's a thief and he should be ignored.

Explanation:

Ad Hominem is a Latin word that means "against the man".

This particular fallacy of ad hominem is simply the act of going against sound logic when making an argument to make personal attacks on the speaker.

From the example above, there was a personal attack on the rival against his idea while bringing up the matter that he was a thief and should be ignored.

This is a very good example of Ad Hominem fallacy because he threw away sound logic while making his argument and instead chose personal attacks against his rival to score cheap points.

Which words in this sentence are the infinitive? Would you like to cook? A. like to B. to cook C. you like D. would you
AysviL [449]
B. to cook

An infinitive almost always begins with “to” and is followed by the basic form of the verb. It is usually in this form:

To + Verb = Infinitive

An infinitive is NOT a verb, so s, es, ed, or ing should not be added to the end. Infinitives can be used as nouns, adjectives or adverbs. According to the pattern of what an infinitive should be, “to cook” is the infinitive of this sentence and it functions as a noun.

All of the following are good tips to keep in mind when taking a test except:
Virty [35]

<u> C. skip the general directions and go straight to the first section.</u>

To do this may be a big mistake since the general directions of a test contains keys information and guidelines on how to answer the questions properly (For example, to use a minimum or maximum of words in a composition, to select no more than two options in multiple selections, to be aware of certain aspect of the test, etc.). If they are not taking into account, it is highly possible that the answers will be qualified as incorrect for not following the guidelines given, even if the content of the answer is correct.
