Entry 4_Hoàng Thị Linh_09066032



Item 1:
“Tôi cho là rất bình thường, có khác gì cắt giảm điện 1 khu phố: Hôm nay cắt bên số chẵn, mai cắt bên số lẻ. Ai cũng thấy hợp lý và phải chấp nhận. Với biển số xe càng phải thế: thành phố chắc chắn giảm được 50% số xe vào nội thành. Cứ đợi đồng thuận thì chẳng làm được gì, cũng như việc đội mũ bảo hiểm ngày nào.”

Thực hiện thành công việc cắt giảm điện giảm điện 1 khu phố: Hôm nay cắt bên số chẵn, mai cắt bên số lẻ
Thực hiện thành công việc bắt buộc đội mũ bảo hiểm

Việc thực hiện biển số xe chẵn lẻ sẽ thành công và thành phố chắc chắn giảm được 50% số xe vào nội thành.
Type of Fallacy: Fallacy of relevance – Weak analogy
Although two premises are true, the conclusion is false because cutting power, wearing helmet and banning car are three different things. Therefore, the successful implementation of the two things does not mean that the other will be successful too.

Item 2:

- Content Fallacy: Fallacy of Relevance (the considerations they offer in support of their conclusion are irrelevant to determine whether that conclusion is true or not)
- Analysis:
The ad uses the image of many people: a young couple who is students. However, the fact that they are irrelevant to determine whether this kind of cake is good or not and it is not sure that those people eat Papa Roti.In conclusion,  this ad is an irrelevant appeal.

Item 3: Sam is riding her bike in her home town in Maine, minding her own business. A station wagon comes up behind her and the driver starts beeping his horn and then tries to force her off the road. As he goes by, the driver yells “get on the sidewalk where you belong!” Sam sees that the car has Ohio plates and concludes that all Ohio drivers are jerks.

There is one fallacy of hasty generalization:
The driver is jerk
The driver drives the car that has Ohio plates.
Every other Ohio drivers are just like the above driver.
———————————————-
All Ohio drivers are jerks
Analysis: False premise: Not all Ohio drivers are like the driver in that above situation. Only Ohio driver is not enough for Sam to draw conclusion about all Ohio drivers.



2 nhận xét:

  1. in my opinion. in Item 2. it is not irrelevant appeal because the message of image is that the cake is suitable for everyone. it is not irrelevant.

  2. In item 3, you shouldn't take this example from the website in which the fallacy has been identified.
