Task 2: Identify the fallacy and explain: 21)This argument commits fallacy of weak analogy. Accordingly, the author realizes a same characteristic between these 2 diseases: levels of danger-serious and then he/she assumes that theyll be tackled in the same way. (quarantine patients) 22)This argument commits fallacy of division. Its clearly manifested in the assumption that a few snowy owls are spotted in Nebraska (the whole) so its also happens similarly in Omaha because its part of Nebraska 23)This argument conducts the types of fallacy of appeal to popularity. Accordingly, the parent supposes that the concepts and behaviors widely believed and made by the majority (Living with girl-friend is wrong and shouldnt be carried out) is true so he/she doesnt allow his/her son to do that 24)This argument is fallacy of ignorance. Accordingly, its assumed that activities done by Buttons top executives were lawful because there was no evidence that their practices were illegal 25)This argument commits fallacy of false dilemma. To specify, the president George Bush made a mistaken assumption that there were only 2 alternatives here: supporting of the fight against terrorism led by US or going against them. As a consequence, youre obviously left with no choice but to advocate their action 26)This argument commits fallacy of straw man. Accordingly, the child deliberately misunderstands what his/her mother said. Then

he/she synchronizes his/her mothers permit to go to the circus with her love for him/her 27)This argument commits fallacy of straw man. Accordingly, they exaggerate the ambiguous outlook of investing money in schools and from this, they attack the decision to raise tax to pay for improvements in schools 28)This argument contains post-hoc fallacy. To be more specific, the author concentrates on the basis that 83% of people dying of automobile accidents ate ice-cream before. Hence, he/she concludes that ice-cream is the culprit of automobile accidents because it precedes the accidents. However, in fact, theres no irrefutable proof of this conclusion 29)This argument commits fallacy of hasty generalization owing to the fact that the author makes mistake when he/she bases on the result of the percentages of undergraduate students fully employed in state X and then applying it to the whole nation. As such, his/her conclusion is unpersuasive as state X is unpresentative sample of the whole nation 30)This argument commits fallacy of hasty generalization. Specifically, its wrong to assert that this solution is suitable for all employees at Weibo (the whole) and will tackle the problem as its merely constructed basing on surveys conducted on some employees at Weibo (a part) and may be only true to them 31)This argument is fallacy of division. Accordingly, the author makes an erroneous assumption that the result of the survey conducted nationwide (the whole) about the percentages of teenagers complaining about the depression today is also true of all states, cities, towns, regions in the nation (the part), especially of the town of Seaside in this situation. Nevertheless, we havent yet known whether its actually true of the town of Seaside or not

32)This argument commits fallacy of ad-hominem you, too. Accordingly, the person who drinks defends himself/herself by accusing the other of the same wrong doing he/she also performs (but you havent been sober for more than a year) 33)this argument is fallacy of ad-hominem abusive because it refuses or negates the belief in Darwins theory only due to his bad treatment to his wife (undesired characteristic) 34)This argument commits fallacy of appeal to force. Accordingly, the author makes us believe in God by frightening that if we dont, well go to hell. This intimidation makes us hold strong belief in Gods 35)This argument commits fallacy of ad-hominem abusive because its purpose is mainly aimed at attacking state officials in the culture and art filed for their underside behavior (theyve never read and finished completely any book) instead of making assessment on their performance
