Answer: C. I look forward to working with a woman doctor soon.

Bias refers to an unfair prejudice a person has towards a particular group, person or thing. In this sentence, the author is showing a gender bias, as he prefers to work with women than with men. Whether that is a "positive" stereotype (women are more capable, they work harder, etc.) or a negative one (women are more attractive, easier to control, etc.), it gives an unfair advantage to one gender over the other one with no fair justification. Therefore, it  is to be discouraged in the workplace.

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

We can best infer that Sickles had good lawyers because:

C) He used the very first temporary insanity defense.

Explanation:

This question refers to Daniel Edgar Sickles, an American soldier and politician who, in 1859, short to death his wife's lover. Sickles was an influential and well-connected man. He received several visits from important people while in jail, and <u>made sure to secure very capable and efficient people as his lawyers. As a matter of fact, it was in his trial that "temporary insanity" was used for the first time in history. According to his lawyers, Sickle had temporarily lost his mind due to the rage of finding out his wife was having an affair. Therefore, he was not himself when he shot her lover to death. His lawyers also made sure to leak certain information to newspapers and get everybody talking about the case as tactics to ensure the result they wanted. They were successful and Sickles was acquitted.</u>

irina [24]

Answer:

D). As a neurologist, I advise people to consider taking 30-minute breaks every hour to help with work fatigue.

E). In a new poll, it was determined that 34 percent of people on the West Coast do not watch any type of sport.

Explanation:

Logos is characterized as the 'appeal based on logic or reason.' The arguments employing logos attempt to persuade audience logically by offering statistical, factual, or reasonable(out of common sense) claims.

As per the question, the above two claims exemplify 'logos' as they offer factual and statistical claim. <u>A neurologist is trained in his profession and thus, his recommendation can be considered reliable</u> by the audience while <u>the latter claim offers a statistical data</u>('34 percent..sport') revealed in the latest poll which the readers can believe as it is based on authentic survey. This allows the readers to associate the claim to their sense of logic or reason and believe in it.Thus, <u>options D and E</u> are the correct answers.
