Many of the poorest performing schools in the country are also located in some of the most economically disadvantaged areas.
It's pretty safe to say that poor performance in school is caused by poverty. Government funding for education should be distributed
in such a way that poorer school districts get more money than the districts where parents earn higher incomes.

How is this passage an example of faulty cause and effect reasoning?
A. It implies that students at poor schools are not as intelligent as other students.

B. It assumes that poverty alone is the cause of poor school performance.

C. It reasons that schools in impoverished areas should receive more funding.

D. It suggests that children whose parents make more money should suffer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: B. It assumes that poverty alone is the cause of poor school performance.

Explanation:

The passage states that poor performance in schools is cased by poverty. This is faulty because it is solely ascribing poor performance to poverty when in fact there could be other factors that are contributing to the poor performance.

The passage therefore oversimplifies the problem and draws a conclusion from a faulty cause assumption as a result. If the writer did not want to do the appropriate research, they could have used simpler wording such as ''poverty contributes to poor school performance'' which would imply that other factors are involved.

How can imitating an author's stylistic
choices help to understand a piece of literature and improve one's writing?

Answers

Answer:

It helps one understand writing better.

Explanation:

If you imitate the writing of a specific author, you are opening your mind to new ideas and your brain will grow by trying something new out. Scientific evidence shows that when you write something down, you remember it better. This also goes for imitating writing. You will understand the new idea of writing and it will improve your own writing because you have experienced different things. The only way to get better at writing is to write.

Answers

Answer:

1. Deists → believed man could find truths as God sees man as good

2. Rationalists → believed Man could survive smallpox with a vaccine

3. Puritans → believed God controlled all actions

Explanation:

I have been able to match the terms.

Deism is known to be a natural religion that accepts that religious knowledge is inborn in every man. Those that practice Deism known as Deists believe that religious knowledge is acquired through use of reason. They believe that man can find truths.

Rationalism believes on ethical and philosophical ideas that have beeen tested by facts and experiences. So, that is why the rationalist believe that man could survive smallpox with a vaccine.

Puritans believe that God is in control of the universe. They believe that since God is in control that he controls the actions of all men.

please help I will give brainliest ​

Answers

Answer:

It is approaching December, and at the opening of the chapter, Jonas thinks he may be frightened. He realizes quickly, however, that 'frightened' is not the correct word. He remembers feeling 'frightened' a year ago when an unknown aircraft flew over his community twice.

Jonas recalls feeling only interest in the aircraft when it first appeared. It is 'against the rules for Pilots to fly over the community,' and so Jonas had never seen a plane up close before. But when he and others realized it was not the typical cargo plane delivering supplies, they became frightened by the unexpected sight. A voice through the speakers had instructed everyone to immediately go into the closest building.

Read the passage from The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.
"What’s that noise?” said Lucy suddenly. It was a far larger house than she had ever been in before and the thought of all those long passages and rows of doors leading into empty rooms was beginning to make her feel a little creepy. "It’s only a bird, silly,” said Edmund. "It’s an owl,” said Peter. "This is going to be a wonderful place for birds. I shall go to bed now. I say, let’s go and explore tomorrow. You might find anything in a place like this. Did you see those mountains as we came along? And the woods? There might be eagles. There might be stags. There’ll be hawks.” –The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, C. S. Lewis

Now, Wenner's pavement art has changed. It's 3-D. It creates an illusion. Viewers feel as if they're in the picture.

Wenner's newest piece is "Grand Canyon Illusion." Viewers feel as if they're at the top of a path. The path drops quickly. It goes into a deep valley.

Wenner only makes about 12 new pieces each year. Why so few? They take a long time to make. "Grand Canyon Illusion" took about 150 hours.
