“Fallacies of Argument”
 In your own words, what is fallacy of argument? Are argumentative tactics flawed by
their nature or structure because such strategies can make a principled argument
more tough and potentially hurt everyone who is involved including people
responsible for them
 In your own words, define “fallacies of emotional argument” and give three, real-world
examples? It is when writers use these statements as a powerful source to the urgency
however writers may be over dramatic and violates good values on which the stamen
argues.
For instance, labors who genuinely stress about losing employment can be persuaded
to fear immigrants who will be employed for less cost. This means, that low-income
families must do more work than middle- and upper-class society’s and are often mot
credited enough because their undocumented and don’t really have an opinion.
Secondly, seniors living on fixed incomes can be convinced that minor changes to
entitlement programs represent dire threats to their health. Because such strategies
have the effect of closing off thinking because people who are scared often act
irrationally.
Lastly, campaigns for those directed against illegal drugs can backfire if their
warnings prove to pierce or seem hysterical
 In your own words, define “fallacies of ethical argument” and give three, real-world
examples? it is when readers give their close attention to authors they respect, or trust
writers want to present themselves as honest well informed confident and sympathetic
and admirable.
First, American pundits and politicians are fond of citing the U.S constitution and its
bill of rights ultimately, the rights claimed sometimes aren’t in the texts themselves
and don’t mean what the speakers think they do.
Secondly, many academic research papers find and reflect on the work of reputable
authorities and introduce these authorities through direct quotations or citations as
credible evidence.
Finally, most constitutional matters, are debatable as volumes of court records prove
because religious believers often base arguments on books or traditions that have a
great authority in a particular religious community
 In your own words, define “fallacies of logical argument” give three, real-world examples?
pose a challenge to civil argument because they often seem reasonable and natural,
especially when they appeal to people’s self-interests
First, hasty generalization Arguments frequently make hasty generalizations because
there are many different types of "adequate" evidence. Depending on the claim
you're making and the context in which you're making it — whether it's based on
philosophy, the sciences, a political dispute, or talking about home rules for using the
kitchen — the standards for evidence may alter.

Secondly, when someone wishes to divert attention from a difficult or dangerous topic
of discussion, they frequently use red herrings as a diversionary strategy. Red
herrings, however, can sometimes occur accidentally.
Finally, Ad Hominem fallacies rely on rhetorical tricks rather than reason. This
fallacy happens when someone rejects or condemns another point of view because of
the individual holding its personal attributes, ethnic background, physical
characteristics, or other irrelevant traits. Ad hominem attacks, sometimes known as
"mudslinging," are frequently utilized in politics. Because politicians can use them to
sway voters' attitudes against an opponent without addressing fundamental issues,
they are viewed as unethical.

“A Quick Reference Guide to Mental Health on University Campus: A brief Rhetorical Analysis of
Fear” By Hawkes
1. What text does Hawkes Analyze? Statistics, images, and general information of mental
health
2. What is the genre? Protection of uni students’ mental stability
3. What is Hawkes’s argument about the text? Reflect the uncertainty that continues over
issues of mental health on campus and beyond once a tabooed topic stigmatized a
subject to awkward and unsure even fear.
4. What is the primary rhetorical appeal used by the text, according to Hawkes? What
intrigued and concerned me was a conflict in the rhetoric of the guide that nicely
reflects a historical dichotomy of care and fear that has long governed our uncertain
response to mental illness, faculty suggests awareness and care for those with mental
health issues and institutions and resources should be praised, madness which has
traditionally been seen and represented as a threat that must be contained

5. In your own words, describe one specific rhetorical strategy Hawkes identifies as
promoting that primary appeal? Stating an argument backed up with evidenced based
on the resources from the university and demonstrating images and statistics
