The correct answer is D. Yes, because the claim is the same as its premise
Explanation:
Begging the question is a type of fallacy, this means the use of incorrect reasoning, in which the premise or argument is not supported but instead a conclusion is taken from the argument itself, this implies in begging the question the premise is assumed to be true and the conclusion derives from it, in this way the premise is used to support itself. In the case of " it's time to go to bed because it's bedtime" the premise is "it's time to go to bed" but there is no argument or reason to support the premise, but the premise itself is assumed as true "because it's bedtime" which leads to the argument and the conclusion being the same. This implies this is a begging question because the claim or conclusion is the same that the premise as the premise is assumed to be true by itself.
I think its B unless you're talking college wise then it would be C.
Answer and Explanation:
1. The character who faces the conflict is Mike, who is the protagonist of the story and the narrator of the story, that is, we know all of this according to Mike's eyes and his view of what is happening.
2. Mike faces an internal conflict that is related to the very thoughts he has and the feelings he feels about the conflict he is experiencing.
3. Mike went to visit his grandmother at the nursing home and she mistook him for her ex-husband and started asking him for forgiveness for the things she did in the past. Mike pretends that he is actually the grandmother's husband, but faces a big problem, as he feels extremely guilty for cheating on her like that, but he doesn't have the courage to show her that he is not who she thinks.
4. The character solves this problem by going home and removing what caused him to be confused with his grandmother's old husband, the mustache. With that, the character shows that he is leaving this story behind and will not think about it anymore.
Answer:
In “Technology: Using it Wisely,” the author claims that technology limits children’s brain development and that it negatively impacts the way people exercise.
To support the claim that technology limits children’s “healthy brain development,” the author cites evidence from “scientists and researchers” who state that technology “limits growth and creativity.” The author goes on to say that most computer games and forms of digital entertainment are not “intellectually challenging.” The author also implies that these types of games and entertainment could actually be harmful to childrens’ ability to think creatively.
To support the claim that technology negatively affects the way people exercise, the author provides details in the form of generalizations. For example, the author states that “many people” exercise indoors in gyms. The author goes on to state that people’s bodies are not being properly nourished because they aren’t spending enough time exercising outdoors. Additionally, the author states that a “walk in the woods” or an “open-air run” is vastly more effective than spending time “running on a treadmill.”
I believe the author’s credible evidence related to the first claim that technology limits “growth and creativity” in school-aged children. However, the author doesn’t include any credible evidence to prove that the additional details used to support that first claim are accurate. Personally, I have seen many computer-based activities and games that actually do help students learn new information and skills. The author’s second claim is also not supported by any data or credible evidence, so I find it hard to believe that working out in a gym offers significantly fewer benefits than walking or running outdoors. Therefore, based on the lack of evidence and credible details provided, I disagree with the author’s claims.
