Identify which logical fallacy takes place in the example.

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.

Read the chart.
stepladder [879]

Answer and Explanation:

The answer that makes the most sense is D) Text Details.

A isn't the answer because this is something we would hear/read about first to know what is happening and to get details of who the character is before diving into the story. This is information about a character.

B isn't the answer because conclusions would be made near the end or middle of the story, where we make inferences and conclusions of what happens when the story ends. This would be Inference.

C isn't the answer because we are being told the traits of a person. This answer and A could possibly be background knowledge, as we get to know the character before the story begins so we aren't lost, we could learn about these during the story as well. This is information about a character.

D is correct because we are given text details about the story/character. We would be given things like how they ended up in the beginning situation, where they are from, why they are here, etc.

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Mindfulness allows one to be completely aware    

Explanation:

The activity of mindfulness is from the category of meditation that allows the person to observe their environment and surrounds without thinking about the meaning or definition. It also allows the person to experience the presence without any judgement.  

This is useful in everyday life since there are a number of interactions that may be interpreted as different ways by different persons. All these different schools of thought may cause conflict to arise but it the person practices mindfulness, there may be a way to overcome these difficulties.
