<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • Sometimes people use violent means to resolve issues.
  • Poverty can lead people to do desperate things

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

THis excerpt refers to <em>The Man Who was Almost a Man</em> :

In this short story Dave Saunders is caught in a world that strips him of his own and financial power. Dave sees his life as a progression of maltreatment and embarrassments: he's compelled to comply with his folks, fill in as a field hand for pay he never gets, and continue ribbing from the other field laborers. His developing feeling of debasement gets from the social and financial powers that shield him from accomplishing his potential and seeking after his fantasies. Owning a weapon along these lines turns into Dave's outlet, an approach to rapidly turn out to be amazing and masculine. He trusts that a gun in his grasp will give him more command over others; notwithstanding, Jenny's demise just restricts his future by constraining him to reimburse Mr. Hawkins the cost of the donkey. Albeit inadvertent, Jenny's passing could be translated as Dave's oblivious want to strike out against Mr. Hawkins. By wrecking an image of Hawkins' success and power as a landowner, Dave might lash out at a financial framework and social request that he will dependably be rejected from just in light of his skin shading.

Plagiarism quiz
GaryK [48]
Something is plagiarism if one takes material from another source and uses it without pointing toward that source, thus making it appear that it is originally written.

1. No, this is not plagiarism since she herself is the original writer, thus she is not stealing content from anybody else.<span>

2. According to Casey Berry of Sciences Ltd., "Only 6% of students wash their hands after class." This first choice is not plagiarism, since the student has cited the researcher Casey Berry, and has enclosed the directly copied statement in quotation marks. In contrast, the second choice mentions "a recent study" without any direct mention of who did the study, and it copies the conclusion verbatim without using quotation marks.

3. This is not plagiarism, since she places a hyperlink to the source, thus acknowledging that what she has written is not her own original material. However, this is considered bad practice, to simply link to a source without describing what it has done or which parts specifically you have taken from it. You would not probably be sued in court for plagiarism, but it is still advisable to describe what the source has done.

4. No, this is not plagiarism. He has used quotation marks for direct quotes. The paraphrased information does not need quotation marks. Hyperlinks and attributions have been provided for each, so there are no issues with this kind of writing.

5. Yes, this is plagiarism. The BlogMutt writer got information from another post (which may or may not have been original material, we do not know), and did not attribute that post. Furthermore, this write-up is for a customer, not merely for discussion in forums, so pretending that the information on the post is his own is not only plagiarism, but it is also business dishonesty as he is stealing someone's work and selling it to a customer as his own.</span>

Match the fallacy with its name. Your grandfather died in World War II; you of all people should support veterans.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The fallacy is that veterans should be supported.

Explanation:

Fallacies are mistaken beliefs. Things that people believe in that don't make sense. In this passage, the narrator is saying to another person that all people should support veterans(people who were in a war) because their grandfather was killed in World war 2. But, that means that the grandfather was <em>killed by a veteran</em>! This doesn't make sense. The fallacy is that veterans should be supported.
