Read the following argument made by a concerned citizen at a town meeting:
are we supposed to stand idly by while our town
government wastes millions of dollars? while we pay
higher and higher taxes, our leaders are stuffing the money
into a bag that's riddled with holes! we cannot continue to
support this senseless waste. we cannot accept tax
increases as inevitable. and we cannot allow our elected
officials to retain their positions without fixing this broken
system.
which of these sentences is the most accurate evaluation of the structure of
the argument?
o
a. the suggestion that people reject elected officials who are
incompetent is too divisive.
o
b. the repetition of the word "higher" creates an emotional effect
that is convincing.
o
c. the image of stuffing money into a holey bag makes the point
clear and engaging.
o
d. the idea that tax increases can be avoided is not grounded in
reality and common sense.
