Your answers are partly correct.
12. The correct answer is: an advertisement for corn seed that shows a farmer and his family standing next to a tractor with their farmstead behind them. This visual argument contains an ethical appeal by showing a positive image of the farmer and implying that using the corn seed is the morally right choice.
13. The correct answer is: a bar chart of 2003 housing construction sales per state. This visual argument contains an appeal to logic by presenting data in a logical and organized manner, allowing viewers to make informed conclusions and compare different states' sales.
14. The correct answer is: a bar chart of 2003 housing construction sales per state. This visual argument contains an appeal to logic because it presents quantifiable data that can be analyzed and interpreted logically.
15. The correct answer is: more common in verbal arguments than in visual arguments and often harder to detect. Logical fallacies are more commonly found in verbal arguments where speakers can manipulate language and reasoning more easily. Visual arguments, on the other hand, rely more on visuals and less on explicit reasoning, making it generally harder to spot fallacies.
To answer these questions, you need to identify the types of appeals being made in each visual argument.
For question 12, which visual argument contains an ethical appeal, you need to analyze the options:
- A bar chart of 2003 housing construction sales per state: This does not directly appeal to ethics; it is based on factual information.
- An advertisement for corn seed that shows a farmer and his family standing next to a tractor with their farmstead behind them: This could possibly contain an ethical appeal, as it may evoke positive emotions regarding family values and the hard work of farmers.
- A designer label on a piece of clothing: This does not contain an ethical appeal; it is more focused on aesthetics or status.
Based on this analysis, the correct answer is the advertisement for corn seed that shows a farmer and his family.
For question 13, which visual argument contains an appeal to logic, you need to analyze the options again:
- A bar chart of 2003 housing construction sales per state: This appeals to logic by presenting numerical data in a clear and organized manner.
- A designer label on a piece of clothing: This does not contain an appeal to logic.
- An advertisement for corn seed that shows a farmer and his family standing next to a tractor with their farmstead behind them: This does not directly appeal to logic; it may rely more on emotional appeal or visual cues.
Based on this analysis, the correct answer is the bar chart of 2003 housing construction sales per state.
For question 14, which visual argument contains an appeal to logic, you need to re-analyze the options:
- An advertisement for corn seed that shows a farmer and his family standing next to a tractor with their farmstead behind them: This does not directly appeal to logic.
- A designer label on a piece of clothing: This does not contain an appeal to logic.
- None of the above: If none of the options contain an appeal to logic, this may be the correct answer.
- A bar chart of 2003 housing construction sales per state: This appeals to logic by presenting factual data in a visual format.
Based on this analysis, the correct answer is none of the above or possibly the bar chart of 2003 housing construction sales per state, depending on how you interpret the options.
For question 15, logical fallacies tend to be more common in verbal arguments than in visual arguments and often harder to detect. Therefore, the correct answer is "more common in verbal arguments than in visual arguments and often harder to detect."
