<em>Would a prediction be accurate if the person about to act becomes aware of the prediction prior to the act itself? </em>
This is a classic problem of the deterministic approach to action. If psychology was perfect, it is likely that this would enable psychologists to predict how a person is going to act in any situation. It would also make psychologists able to predict when this act would take place. However, for such a prediction to be useful, the psychologist would have to keep this information from the subject. Otherwise, the knowledge of the prediction could potentially make the person act in a different way, rendering the prediction obsolete.
<em>Does the fact that a prediction can be known in advance disprove the possibility of predicting accurately or is that fact just one more antecedent condition? </em>
The fact that a prediction can be known in advance does disprove the possibility of predicting accurately. The moment a prediction is made, the prediction alters the state of the components that were necessary to know in order to make a prediction. Therefore, the prediction becomes obsolete as the action might or might not happen in the way that was previously predicted.
Answer:
He opens his speech with a sentence referring to “a date which will live in infamy" to grab his audience's attention.
Explanation:
The anecdote about the Japanese ambassador is important for the idea of the Day of Infamy as it points out the nature of the happenings in the Pearl Harbour.
President Roosevelt refers to the diplomatic relations between Japan and the USA, as he was saying that the Japanese ambassador was communicating with the USA after the attack on Pearl Harbour was underway.
The main idea of this speech is the Japanese trait of the trust of the USA.
The most accurate way to describe the excerpt is to choose the option - it is a dependent clause. This means that something needs to be added - you need to finish the sentence so that it becomes an independent clause, and not a subordinate one.
