Is this a valid argument?"People have been trying for centuries to prove that God exists. But no one has yet been able to prove it. Therefore, God does not exist."
-
No. It is an argument from ignorance. Not finding something doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
-
Yes. If God exists we should have found Him by now.
Correct Answer
A. No. It is an argument from ignorance. Not finding something doesn't mean it doesn't exist.Explanation
The given answer is correct because it accurately identifies the argument as an argument from ignorance. The argument assumes that because no one has been able to prove the existence of God, it means that God does not exist. However, the absence of evidence does not necessarily prove the non-existence of something. Just because something has not been proven or found yet does not mean it does not exist. Therefore, the argument is flawed and not valid.Rate this question:

There were to/too/two many books to/too/two read and not enough time to read them.
-
To, too
-
Too, to
-
Two, too
-
To, two
-
Two, to
Correct Answer
A. Too, toExplanation
The correct answer is "too, to". "Too" is used to indicate excess or more than is needed, while "to" is used as a preposition before a verb or as part of an infinitive verb form. In this sentence, "too" is used to convey that there were an excessive number of books, and "to" is used to indicate the purpose or intention of reading them.Rate this question:

I’d rather eat plain/plane yogurt instead of vanilla.
-
Plain
-
Plane
-
Either
-
Neither
Correct Answer
A. PlainExplanation
The correct answer is "plain" because the sentence is expressing a preference for eating yogurt without any added flavor (plain) over eating yogurt with vanilla flavoring. The word "plane" does not make sense in this context, as it refers to an aircraft. "Either" and "neither" are not applicable as they do not convey a preference for one option over another.Rate this question:

-

-

-
Neither.
Correct Answer
A. Hole.Explanation
The correct answer is "hole" because the sentence implies that Micah dropped his pacifier into a specific location, which is a hole. The word "whole" means complete or entire, and it does not make sense in this context. Therefore, "hole" is the appropriate choice.Rate this question:

That movie had really cool special affects/effects.
-
Affects.
-
Effects.
-
Neither.
-
Either.
Correct Answer
A. Effects.Explanation
The correct answer is "effects." In this sentence, the word "effects" refers to the visual or audiovisual elements used in the movie to create a sense of realism or enhance the storytelling. The word "affects" is a verb that means to have an influence on something, while "effects" is a noun that refers to the result or consequence of something. Therefore, "effects" is the correct term to describe the special visual elements in the movie.Rate this question:

What's wrong with this sentence?Andrea Dworkin has written several books arguing that pornography harms women. But Dworkin is an ugly, bitter person, so you shouldn't listen to her.
-
"harms" should be "harm."
-
Her appearance and character don't have anything to do with the validity of her argument.
-
"pornography" should be capitalized.
-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. Her appearance and character don't have anything to do with the validity of her argument.Explanation
The correct answer is that her appearance and character don't have anything to do with the validity of her argument. This is because the sentence is making a fallacious ad hominem attack by attacking the personal characteristics of Andrea Dworkin rather than addressing the substance of her argument. The validity of an argument should be evaluated based on the evidence and reasoning presented, not on the appearance or character of the person making the argument.Rate this question:

What's wrong with this sentence?I work on my math homework as I talked on the phone.
-
"work" should be "worked."
-
There should be a comma after math.
-
"math homework" should be capitalized.
-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. "work" should be "worked."Explanation
The sentence is in the past tense because "talked" is in the past tense. Therefore, the verb "work" should also be in the past tense to maintain consistency.Rate this question:

True or False: It’s ok to borrow someone else's words and/or ideas without footnotes.
-
True
-

Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
It is not okay to borrow someone else's words and/or ideas without footnotes. This is considered plagiarism, which is the act of using someone else's work without giving them proper credit. Plagiarism is a serious offense and can have severe consequences, both academically and professionally. It is important to always cite your sources and give credit to the original author or creator of the ideas or words you are using.Rate this question:

-
Right
-

-

Correct Answer
A. WriteExplanation
The correct answer is "write" because it is the correct spelling for the action of putting words on paper or another surface. "Right" means correct or the opposite of left. "Rite" refers to a religious or ceremonial act. "Wright" is a surname or a term for a skilled worker or craftsman. Therefore, "write" is the only option that fits the context of the sentence.Rate this question:

Is this a valid argument?"Giving money to charity is the right thing to do. So charities have a right to our money."
-
Yes. Right means right. Therefore, it is right for charities to have our money.
-
No. The word "right" can refer to different things like morally correctness or something that is deserved.
Correct Answer
A. No. The word "right" can refer to different things like morally correctness or something that is deserved.Explanation
This explanation correctly identifies that the word "right" can have different meanings. In the given argument, the phrase "charities have a right to our money" could be interpreted as meaning that charities morally deserve or are entitled to our money. However, the argument does not provide any justification for this claim, so it cannot be considered a valid argument.Rate this question:

What's wrong with this sentence?They used to go to the deli but now they goes to eat fast food.
-
"fast food" should be capitalized.
-
"goes" should be "go."
-
"deli" should be capitalized.
-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. "goes" should be "go."Explanation
The verb "goes" should be changed to "go" in order to agree with the subject "they". The sentence is talking about a plural group of people ("they") who used to go to the deli but now go to eat fast food. Therefore, the correct form of the verb should be "go" to match the plural subject.Rate this question:

Is this a valid argument?Grading this exam on a curve would be the most fair thing to do. After all, classes go more smoothly when the students and the professor are getting along well.
-
No. Fairness has nothing to do with classes going smoothly.
-
Yes. Grading on a curve is always fair.
Correct Answer
A. No. Fairness has nothing to do with classes going smoothly.Explanation
The given answer is correct because it correctly identifies that fairness and the smoothness of classes are two separate issues. Grading on a curve may or may not be fair, but its fairness does not guarantee that classes will go smoothly. The argument in the question assumes a connection between fairness and smoothness, which is not necessarily true.Rate this question:

What's wrong with this sentence?President Jones raised taxes, and then the rate of violent crime went up. Jones is responsible for the rise in crime.
-
Should be "rised taxes"
-
Unsupported connection between the raising of taxes and the crime rate.
-
Comma should come after Jones.
-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. Unsupported connection between the raising of taxes and the crime rate.Explanation
The correct answer is "Unsupported connection between the raising of taxes and the crime rate." The sentence suggests that President Jones raising taxes caused the rate of violent crime to increase. However, the sentence does not provide any evidence or explanation to support this connection. It is important to have evidence or a logical explanation to establish a cause-and-effect relationship between two events. Without this support, it is not valid to conclude that Jones is responsible for the rise in crime.Rate this question:

What's wrong with this sentence?Guns are like hammers--they're both tools with metal parts that could be used to kill someone. And yet, it would be ridiculous to restrict the purchase of hammers--so restrictions on purchasing guns are equally ridiculous.
-
There should not be a comma after yet.
-
The similarities between guns and hammers do not have anything to do with the main concern of gun safety.
-
Ridiculous is not used properly.
-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. The similarities between guns and hammers do not have anything to do with the main concern of gun safety.Explanation
The given correct answer states that the sentence is wrong because the similarities between guns and hammers do not have anything to do with the main concern of gun safety. The sentence is discussing the idea that restrictions on purchasing guns are equally ridiculous as restricting the purchase of hammers. However, the argument is flawed because it fails to address the main concern of gun safety and the potential harm that guns can cause. The comparison between guns and hammers is irrelevant in this context.Rate this question:

-
By, bye
-
Bye, buy
-

-
By, buy
-
Bye, by
Correct Answer
A. By, buyExplanation
The correct answer is "by, buy" because the sentence is asking someone to stop at the store in order to purchase some cheese. "By" is incorrect as it does not make sense in this context, and "bye" is also incorrect as it is a farewell word and does not fit the sentence. "Buy" is the correct word to use in this sentence as it indicates the action of purchasing the cheese.Rate this question:

-
A comma should go after Christianity.
-

-
A comma should go after culture.
-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. A comma should go after culture.Explanation
The given sentence is incorrect because it is missing a comma after the word "culture." The correct sentence should be: "In today's culture, Christianity has created its own sterile sub-culture." The comma is necessary to separate the introductory phrase "In today's culture" from the main clause "Christianity has created its own sterile sub-culture."Rate this question:

Is this a valid argument?I know the exam is graded based on performance, but you should give me an A. My cat has been sick, my car broke down, and I've had a cold, so it was really hard for me to study!
-
Yes. The professor is logically obligated to award the student an A.
-
No. People who have hard weeks are not entitled to A's.
Correct Answer
A. No. People who have hard weeks are not entitled to A's.Explanation
The answer states that people who have hard weeks are not entitled to A's. This implies that the student's argument, which is based on personal difficulties, is not a valid reason for receiving an A. The answer suggests that the professor should not be logically obligated to award the student an A based on the circumstances mentioned.Rate this question:

Is this a valid argument?Feminists want to ban all pornography and punish everyone who reads it! But such harsh measures are surely inappropriate, so the feminists are wrong: porn and its readers should be left in peace.
-
No. It exaggerates the feminist position and then discredits the exaggeration.
-
Yes. Harsh measures indicate that the person or group is completely wrong.
Correct Answer
A. No. It exaggerates the feminist position and then discredits the exaggeration.Explanation
The given answer is correct because the argument presented in the statement is a straw man fallacy. It misrepresents the feminist position by exaggerating their stance on pornography and punishment. By discrediting the exaggerated version of the argument, it does not address the actual position of feminists and fails to provide a valid argument against their beliefs.Rate this question:

Ran is past-tense.
-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. Ran is past-tense.Explanation

Should every footnoted source also appear in the bibliography?
-
Yes.
-
Only the ones you think are important.
-
No.
Correct Answer
A. Yes.Explanation
Every footnoted source should also appear in the bibliography because the bibliography is a comprehensive list of all the sources that were consulted and cited in the work. It allows readers to easily locate and verify the sources used by the author. By including all footnoted sources in the bibliography, the author ensures transparency and credibility in their research.Rate this question:

-

-

-
1/1/2009.
-
01/01/9.
Correct Answer
A. 01/01/9.Explanation
The date format "01/01/9" is not acceptable because it does not include the full year. The standard date format usually includes the month, day, and four-digit year. In this case, the year is written as "9" instead of "2009" or "09", which is not a commonly used or recognized format.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. Between 300 and 600 words, not counting the cover page or bibliography.Explanation

A. Cite, siteExplanation
In a formal paper, it is important to properly cite any sources that were used. This includes web sources. The correct way to cite a web source in a formal paper is to use the word "cite." Additionally, when referring to a specific website or webpage, the word "site" should be used. Therefore, the correct answer is "cite, site."Rate this question:

What's wrong with this sentence?We should abolish the death penalty. Many respected people, such as actor Guy Handsome, have publicly stated their opposition to it.
-
Actor should be capitalized.
-
"Abolish" is not used properly.
-
Mr. Handsome's opinion does not necessarily make something true.
-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. Mr. Handsome's opinion does not necessarily make something true.Explanation
The given correct answer states that "Mr. Handsome's opinion does not necessarily make something true." This is a valid explanation because the sentence is implying that the death penalty should be abolished based on the opinion of actor Guy Handsome. However, just because a respected person like Mr. Handsome opposes the death penalty, it does not mean that abolishing it is the correct or universally accepted decision. Public opinion alone does not determine the validity or correctness of an argument or statement.Rate this question:

Correct Answer

Correct Answer
A. "is representing" should be represents.Explanation
The correct answer is "is representing" should be represents. The verb "represents" should be used instead of "is representing" to maintain proper subject-verb agreement. Since "Jerusalem" is a proper noun, it should be capitalized. Additionally, a comma should be placed after "Jerusalem" to separate the subject from the verb.Rate this question:

The statement "There are many fields of study that will be harder than others when it comes to being a Christian" is vague and does not provide specific examples or explanations. Additionally, the statement "Even though there are harder fields, it takes the same amount of work for the easier ones" is contradictory and does not make logical sense.

What's wrong with this sentence?The seriousness of a punishment should match the seriousness of the crime. Right now, the punishment for drunk driving may simply be a fine. But drunk driving is a very serious crime that can kill innocent people. So the death penalty should be the punishment for drunk driving.
-
It makes drunk driving more serious than it is.
-
It assumes the innocence of humanity.
-
It makes the death penalty seem like the only proper punishment.
-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. It makes the death penalty seem like the only proper punishment.Explanation
The given sentence suggests that the death penalty should be the only punishment for drunk driving, which implies that no other forms of punishment, such as imprisonment or license suspension, are appropriate. This assumption is problematic as it fails to consider alternative methods of punishment that could effectively deter and rehabilitate offenders. Additionally, the severity of the death penalty may not align with the seriousness of the crime for everyone, leading to potential ethical concerns.Rate this question:

What's wrong with this sentence?Animal experimentation reduces our respect for life. If we don't respect life, we are likely to be more and more tolerant of violent acts like war and murder.

-
Animal experimentation does not actually lead to war or murder.

Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. Animal experimentation does not actually lead to war or murder.Explanation
The given correct answer explains that the sentence "Animal experimentation does not actually lead to war or murder" is incorrect. The sentence in the original passage suggests that if animal experimentation continues, it will lead to a lack of respect for life, which in turn will lead to tolerance of violent acts like war and murder.

Correct Answer
A. Popular opinion doesn't determine morality.Explanation
The given sentence implies that the immorality of gay marriages is based on the fact that 70% of Americans think so. However, the correct answer states that popular opinion doesn't determine morality. This means that the moral judgment of an action or belief should not be solely based on the majority's opinion.

A. It is a vague sentence that doesn't say anything.Explanation
The opening sentence "There are many views on politics" is considered a vague sentence that doesn't convey any specific information.

-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. "kept" should be "keep."Explanation
The sentence is describing a past action of continuously spending money on the speaker's family.

Is this a valid argument?Active euthanasia is morally acceptable. It is a decent, ethical thing to help another human being escape suffering through death.
-
No. The second sentence just repeats the first sentence without proving its merit.
-
Yes. Since helping other human beings is ethical, euthanasia is also ethical.
Correct Answer
A. No. The second sentence just repeats the first sentence without proving its merit.Explanation
The given answer is correct because it accurately identifies the flaw in the argument. The second sentence merely restates the first sentence without providing any evidence or reasoning to support the claim that active euthanasia is morally acceptable. In order for an argument to be valid, it must present logical and convincing evidence to support its claims. However, in this case, the argument fails to do so, making it invalid.Rate this question:

-
Philosophy isn't hard.

There was not enough evidence to support that conclusion.
-
The evidence is invalid.
-
Nothing.
Correct Answer
A. There was not enough evidence to support that conclusion.Explanation
The given correct answer is "There was not enough evidence to support that conclusion." This is because the sentence presents a hasty generalization by assuming that all philosophy classes must be hard based on the experiences of two individuals. However, the experiences of just two people cannot be generalized to the entire population of philosophy classes. Therefore, there is not enough evidence to support the conclusion that all philosophy classes are hard.Rate this question:
