vladimir2022 [97]3 years ago

Answer:

I am approaching seventy; it is in sight; it is only three years away. Necessarily, I must go soon. It is but matter-of-course wisdom, then, that I should begin to set my worldly house in order now, so that it may be done calmly and with thoroughness, in place of waiting until the last day, when, as we have often seen, the attempt to set both houses in order at the same time has been marred by the necessity for haste and by the confusion and waste of time arising from the inability of the notary and the ecclesiastic to work together harmoniously, taking turn about and giving each other friendly assistance - not perhaps in fielding, which could hardly be expected, but at least in the minor offices of keeping game and umpiring; by consequence of which conflict of interests and absence of harmonious action a draw has frequently resulted where this ill-fortune could not have happened if the houses had been set in order one at a time and hurry avoided by beginning in season, and giving to each the amount of time fairly and justly proper to it.

Which logical fallacy does the example contain?
svetoff [14.1K]

The correct option is C: Slippery slope. This type of fallacy suggests that a certain or certain events will take place with no real or sufficient evidence to prove so. This is the case, especially with events that seem unlikely to happen given the circumstances. In this example, the reasoning goes like this: if Quentin fails to pass his math test, as a consequence, he will lose the opportunity of going to college and he will have to live in his parent’s basement for the rest of his life. However, the fact that he does not pass this test is not enough evidence that those two situations will actually take place. For example, Quentin may take the test again and try passing it, or if he eventually cannot enter college, he can look for a job that is profitable and that will allow him to become independent and move from his parent’s house, etc.
