Item 1:
Markets will rise and fall, but this is the United States of
America. No matter what some agency may say, we’ve always been and always
will be a AAA country. For all of the challenges we face, we continue to
have the best universities, some of the most productive workers, the most
innovative companies, the most adventurous entrepreneurs on Earth. What
sets us apart is that we’ve always not just had the capacity, but also the will
to act -- the determination to shape our future; the willingness in our
democracy to work out our differences in a sensible way and to move forward,
not just for this generation but for the next generation.
Fallacies of presumption:
_False dilemma: There are not only two choices: Rise or fall
( false premise)
_Hasty generalization: ‘ we’ve always been and always will
be a AAA country’,
Assuming that things will be unchanged overtime (false
premise).
Item 2:
_Fallacies of relevance: Appeal to popularity: Everyone
think that 100% fresh and pure milk is best for health.
The advertisement tries to make people like vinamilk.
_ Fallacies of ambiguity: The advertisement says that
Vinamilk is 100%fresh and pure milk but it doesn’t provide where and how this finger
comes from. Therefore it is not convincing enough.
Item 3:
Hasty generalization: Listerine kills germs and also
eliminates bad breath. But you will have
24 hour protection, but right next to that it says that you need to use it 2x a
day for it to be that effective.
One day has 24
hour.
Listerine kills
gems and also eliminate bad breath.
Listerine works
for 12 hour.
Use Listerine 2
times a day.
ð
=>You have 24 hour
protection.
-As far as i'm concerned, there is no fallacy in your first item at all:
ReplyDelete+ "market will rise or fall":I think in this statement the author just wants to show the nature of the market in general.
+ And I don't think:"we’ve always been and always will be a AAA country" is hasty generalization, either.Because after this sentence the author indicates clearly factors which demonstrate the US'development.
- In terms of iterm 3: in my opinion,your analysis is not clear enough, so I couldn't see the fallacy of hasty generalization in this argument.
i think in ur item 3, the poster ads is OK and i do not find anything having argument errors!
ReplyDelete- In my opinion, I also suppose that all your three items don't have any argument fallacies.
ReplyDelete- in your item 2, I don't think it has fallacies of relevance (Appeal to popularity because this advertisement just show that Vinamilk is 100%fresh and pure, not everyone's thought. And I also can't detect fallacies of ambiguity in this advertisement.
in item 3, it doesn't have the fallacy of relevance: Appeal to popularity. It is the ads that show Vinamilk is 100% fresh and pure to convince the consumer, not the consumers' thought. And about ambiguity, i think the picture of the cow is clear enough :-?

hi. in your item 3, I also think that it has no fallacy at all. Hasty generalization is when you suppose what is true for someone is also true for the whole group. However, I can't find anything the author means that all people will have protection thanks to Listerine
ReplyDeleteitem 3: i think it is not hasty generalization
