Our Town by Thornton Wilder The story is equally simple. The first act introduces us to the town, Grover's Corners in New Hampshire, seen in the early years of the 20th Century--and most particularly to the Gibbs and Webb families, who live next door to each other. The second act finds boy-next-door George and girl-next-door Emily marrying, and a flash-black shows the audience how their romance began. It is a simple tale, full of details of small town life, church choir on Wednesday night, milk delivered fresh each morning, breakfast to be made, chickens to be fed--and slowly, as the action moves forward, we are drawn into this simple way of life and its seemingly endless and trivial repetitions.

Which statement best explains why the evidence provided in the text is a fallacy? The speaker uses anecdotal evidence with phras

MrRissso [65]

Fallacy is the use of faulty arguments which are not valid and as such are rendered untrue because of the way they are presented in the argument. Some fallacies look valid, but are still fallacious because they do not satisfy an important logical premise.

As a result of this, we can see that there are various types of fallacy and they include:

Fallacy of Hasty Generalisation
Argumentum ad Baculum
Argumentum ad Hominem
Slippery Slope

For example, when we use Argumentum ad Baculum (appeal to force), we try to make use of force to silence a person who has made a very valid and logical argument.

For example, when you tell a person, "I will soon slap you if you do not close up your mouth" is an appeal to force or Argumentum ad Baculum

Please note that your question is incomplete so I gave you a general overview so that you would get a better understanding of the concept.

As far as I can see, I notice that in the first paragraph (option 1) only promotes the notion of understanding and trust. In this paragraph, Michelle tries to comfort Phillip by making him understand that the situation has got out of hand and the guitar cannot be brought back, therefore, it is better for them to maintain a healthy conversation as well as a good relationship. However, Michelle herself seems unsettling because of the earlier effort she has made to search the guitar, yet her speech embodies the value of understanding one another to build trust among all.
