Answer: a. the people who do not support the new library building must be uneducated and stupid.

Explanation: "Ad hominem" means "against the man" and when used in a discussion, it means to attack a person, or a group of persons, to shoot down their argument instead of using a logic argument. In the given sentences the one that uses "Ad hominem" is option a, because it attacks the people who do not support the new library building, by saying they are "uneducated and stupid" instead of giving a logical argument to why the new library should be built.

svlad2 [7]

A. a style of jazz developed in Harlem.


One of the things that helps in determining that “boogie-woogie” refers to a style of jazz developed in Harlem is the third word of the first line—“daddy.”  What daddy is referring to is the term “daddy-o,” which was a term for a male commonly used in the jazz era in the Harlem area among others, but its origin is certainly attributed to the jazz culture.
