This question is missing the excerpt and the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

The second doctor watched for contagious and infectious diseases. He looked especially for infections of the scalp and at the eyelids for symptoms of trachoma, a blinding disease. Since trachoma caused more than half of all medical detentions, this doctor was greatly feared. He stood directly in the immigrant’s path. With a swift movement, he would grab the immigrant’s eyelid, pull it up, and peer beneath it. If all was well, the immigrant was passed on.

How does the author's use of concrete details such as "stood directly in the path," "swift movement," and "grabbed" affect the reader’s impression of the doctor?

a. These details describe how the doctor felt about doing trachoma inspections.

b. These details provide information about medical examinations from the doctor’s perspective.

c. These details describe the doctor’s actions as direct and focused.

d. These details provide a list of medical examinations.

Answer:

The author's use of concrete details affects the reader's impression of the doctor because:

c. These details describe the doctor’s actions as direct and focused.

Explanation:

<u>Details such as "stood directly in the path," "swift movement," and "grabbed" convey a certain impression of the doctor being described in the passage. We can sense how precise he was, how straightforward and accurate his examination of the immigrants was. There is no doubt in his moves, no hesitation in his manners. He knows what he is looking for - signs of trachoma - and he knows what to do to find it.</u>

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Letter to a friend.

Explanation:

674, Boulevard Appartments,

New York City, US

Dear Alice,

How are you doing? I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am doing good but facing some problems at school.

You know that our school is regarded as the best and top-rated schools in our city, but there are some practices that I don't like. For instance, there is no practicality in our studies. All we are imparted with is theoretical knowledge. No practical learning skills are being practiced in this school. The second problem is that there is a load of subjects to study. I mean, first, they already teach us only theory, then, they don't give us any choice in subjects, we have to study a lot of subjects. And, lastly, we hardly get any time to freshen our minds. We seldom get sports periods in a week. Many times our sports periods are also taken up by our subject teachers as a substitute.

I am thinking to send an email to our board members because it is really stressing out all students.  Such tireless teaching is making our brain process slow. What do you say about this? I hope to listen from you soon.

With love,

Tina

sergey [27]

Answer:

Passage A commits a fallacy but does not commit a fallacy of equivocation or amphiboly.

Passage B commits a fallacy and specifically commits a fallacy of equivocation.

Passage C commits a fallacy but does not commit a fallacy of equivocation or amphiboly.

Passage D does not commit a fallacy

Passage E commits a fallacy and specifically commits a fallacy of amphiboly.

Explanation:

A fallacy is an argument that isn't sound because it has a faulty logic. There are many different types of fallacies. The fallacies dealt in our example here: fallacy of equivocation and fallacy of amphiboly both deal with fallacies stemming from ambiguity of words or sentences such that they can mean so many things at the same time. While fallacy of equivocation deals with fallacies resulting from ambiguity caused by use of a word that could mean so many things, fallacy of amphiboly deals with fallacies from ambiguity of phrases and sentences.
