Answer:
A. Non sequitur
Explanation:
Non Sequitur is a type of logical fallacy that forms a conclusion or response that is not logically connected to the previous statement.
From the example, <em><u>Ever since the new casino opened unemployment in this city has gotten out of control </u></em>, there is no logical connection between the increased unemployment in the city and the new casino.
There would have been a logical conclusion if the statement was written like this,
<em>People who are caught gambling are fired, so since the new casino opened, the unemployment in the city has gotten out of control.</em>
<em></em>
People who are caught gambling are fired is the premise and connects the next statements about unemployment rates increasing and the new casino in town.
Therefore, the logical fallacy that takes place is Non sequitur as it has no logical connection to the premise.
The best example of a story's historical context is A. the economic situation the author lives in.
<u>The historical context of a story refers to the background and surrounding situations that affect that story</u>. In that way, it is related to the social, cultural, economic and political circumstances that surround that text and that are linked to specific historical moments. <u>As the economic environment is included as part of the historical context of a story, the economic situation in which the author lives in is the correct answer. </u>
