HELP ME PLEASE
Read the passage. (1) Fights have been a part of hockey for decades, but should they continue to characterize the sport? (2) For my part, I believe that fighting should not be allowed in hockey. (3) Hockey fights lead to injuries for the players, such as pulled muscles and concussions. (4) Hockey fights are often staged to encourage people to attend the events, and then they set a poor example for fans watching, particularly children. (5) If we let children watch this kind of violence, they will think it is acceptable to act that way at school. (6) These athletes know that children look up to them, and they do not worry about the message their careless fights are teaching. Which sentences should be removed or revised to eliminate logical fallacies and improve clarity? Select three options. sentence 2 sentence 3 sentence 4 sentence 5 sentence 6

Answer 1

Answer:

C. sentence 4

D. sentence 5

E. sentence 6

(Photo for proof at the bottom.)

Explanation:

A logical fallacy is an error in reasoning. Sentences 4, 5, and 6 are all assumptions that lack evidence and clarification.

Sentence 4 assumes that hockey fights set a poor example for fans, without presenting any evidence. We don't know that hockey fights are really setting a poor example for fans or not.

Sentence 5 is similar. The type of logical fallacy in sentence 5 is called slippery slope, which is when one event is assumed to trigger the next one, despite the lack of evidence. Sentence 5 assumes that children watching hockey fights will think it's acceptable to act that way in school. There is no evidence backing this up.

Sentence 6 is also similar. It assumes that hockey players know children look up to them, then assumes that hockey players don't worry about messages their careless fights are assumed to be teaching children. Again, this lacks evidence. No evidence proves that the hockey players think this way. No evidence proves that their fights are wrongly teaching children.

Here's a photo of the review just incase.
