we never had any crime until mr. jones was elected to office, so it's definitely his fault.

The correct answer is B. If we don't elect Mrs. Smith to the senate, we will definitely see a rise in taxes.

Explanation:

In language, the logical fallacy "fear" occurs when the speaker appeals to fear or some situation people are afraid of with the purpose of convincing people about an idea. This means, the speaker does not provide reasons or evidence but relies on the aspects people want to avoid. This occurs in the sentence "If we don't elect Mrs. Smith to the senate, we will definitely see a rise in taxes" because in this case the speaker appeals to the fear of people on more taxes to try to persuade them about not voting for Mrs. Smith; however, this is not a valid argument but is only based on fear.

"everyday

use" was written by alice walker. this is a story about two sisters, dee

and maggie wanting to have the handmade quilt. maggie wants to use the thing

for its purpose, while dee appreciates it for being “her heritage”.   the quilt represents family heritage. it was

believed that only dedication and years of hard work can represent a  quilt. 

mama decided to give

the quilts to her less fortunate daughter, maggie because she believed that dee

could not hold the true meaning of their family heritage and   that she would not use the quilts for their

purpose. however, dee believed that maggie can’t appreciate the quilts just as

how she sees them, and she thought that the quilt will be put to “everyday use”

by maggie and within 5 years or so, the quilt will turn into a rag. in the story, dee strongly believed that maggie do not deserve the quilts.
