  8. Summarizing and Paraphrasing • Recounting plot events • Restating ideas or passages in one’s own words. • Copying exactly

  9. Logical Fallacies • Slippery slope: “Event X has occurred; therefore Event Y will inevitably happen.” Example: Never give anyone a break; if you do, they’ll walk all over you. • Ad-poplum: “Most people approve of X; therefore X is true.” An appeal to popularity – truth is based on popularity. • Ad-hominem: “Person A makes Claim X – “Dogs are cute”; Person B makes an attack on Person As claim, saying “No, dogs are not cute”; therefore, A’s claim is false” based on perception.

  10. Logical Fallacies Inductive Argument: Reasoning that takes specific information and makes a broader generalization that is considered probable, allowing that the conclusion may not be accurate. Example: “Will is a doctor; doctor’s are smart; therefore, Will is smart.” Deductive Fallacy: Based on premises that if true then the reasoning will be valid. Example: “All apples are fruit; all fruits grow on trees; therefore, all apples grow on tree.” This makes a reasonable deduction although not entirely true. Factual Error: A wrong statement – Christopher Columbus discovered America.

  11. Verbals Gerund: Verb + ing = always a noun. Example: Singing is fun. Infinitive: “to” + a verb – acts as adjective or an adverb, or noun. Participle: Verb + ing or ed or d or en = acts as a adjective: The boiling water on the stove is hot. AND The water boiling on the stove is hot.

  12. Parallelism • Commas in a series: I like cake, cookies, and brownies. • "Buy a bucket of chicken and have a barrel of fun.“ (slogan of Kentucky Fried Chicken) • •"We do not ride on the railroad; it rides upon us.“ (Henry David Thoreau, Walden, 1854)
