Quiz 1.
1. Which of the following are all conclusion indicators?
Accordingly, thus, implies that.
2. Marketing to consumers via the Internet has many advantages for marketers. It allows products and
services to be offered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It allows products to be offered globally in an
efficient manner. And it is cost efficient, saving the need for stores, paper catalogues, and sales people.
J. Paul Peter and Jerry C. Olson, Consumer Behavior and Marketing Strategy
Argument; conclusion: Marketing to consumers…for marketers.
3. The ozone layer filters out harmful ultraviolet rays from sunlight before they can reach the surface of
our planet and cause damage to humans and other life forms. Any substantial reduction in the amount
of this ozone would threaten life as we know it. Consequently, the appearance of a large "hole" in the
ozone layer over Antarctica represents a major environmental crisis.
Colin Baird and Michael Cann, Environmental Chemistry, 3rd edition
Argument, conclusion: The appearance of a large …. environmental crisis.
4. Evolution is central to vertebrate biology because it provides a principle that organizes the diversity
we see among living vertebrates. Also it helps to fit extinct forms into the context of living species.
Classification, initially a process of attaching names to organisms, has become a method of
understanding evolution.
F. Harvey Pough, et al., Vertebrate Life, 7th edition
Argument; conclusion: Classification, initially a process of attaching names to organisms, has become
a method of understanding evolution.
5. Anthropology is the most liberating of all the sciences. Not only has it exposed the fallacies of racial
and cultural superiority, but its devotion to the study of all peoples, everywhere and throughout time,
has cast more light on human nature than all the reflections of sages or the studies of laboratory
scientists.
William A. Haviland, et al., Cultural Anthropology, 11th edition
Argument; conclusion: Anthropology is the most liberating of all the sciences.
6. “Dr. Laura” Schlesinger, in her recent book, The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands, states that “If
women would show more compassion for a man’s physical needs, they would find themselves
happier…orgasms will put a smile on your face…and release a lot of tension.” Understand where she
is coming from: she’s a conservative practitioner of Orthodox Judaism who is all for “traditional”
gender roles. The book is nothing but a collection of letters and transcripts from her radio show. You
should not spend your money on it, because you can get the same information by watching a rerun of
“Leave it to Beaver.” --BC Renegade Rip, 4/30/04
Argument conclusion: you should not spend your money on itt.
7. Which of the following are all premise indicators?
For, given that, because.
8. Crocodiles aren't really dangerous at all. I've seen them on television many times, and they seem very
peaceful. And I remember seeing Paul Hogan wrestle one in the movie Crocodile Dundee. Plus,
crocodiles don't like humans.
Argument; conclusion: Crocodiles aren’t really dangerous at all.
9. The stakes in whistleblowing are high. Take the nurse who alleges that physicians enrich themselves
in her hospital through unnecessary surgery; how about the engineer who discloses saftey defects in
the braking system, or the captain who alerts authorities that the navy is polluting the ocean waters: all
of them know that they pose a threat to those who employ them and that their own careers may be at
risk if they pursue to tell someone outside the company.
Argument; conclusion: the stakes in whistleblowing are high.
10. Is an argument defined in this as "A group of statements, whereby one statement(claims to) to support
another statement." Check for precision.
False
Q2

1. Determine if this passage is an argument or nonargument:

Evolution is central to vertebrate biology because it provides a principle that organizes the diversity
we see among living vertebrates. Also it helps to fit extinct forms into the context of living species.
Classification, initially a process of attaching names to organisms, has become a method of
understanding evolution.
--F. Harvey Pough, et al., Vertebrate Life, 7th edition

Argument; conclusion: Evolution is central to vertebrate biology.
2. Determine whether this passage is an argument or nonargument:
The world economy is controlled by multinational corporations. The majority of them are based in the
United States. Their power in the underdeveloped nations perpetuates the dependency of many Third
World nations on the United States. Multinationals add to the tensions in Third World countries
through arms sales and intervention in the domestic affairs of host countries.
--D. Stanley Eitzen and Maxine Baca Zinn, Social Problems, 9th edition
Nonargument
3. Marketing to consumers via the Internet has many advantages for marketers. It allows products and
services to be offered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It allows products to be offered globally in an
efficient manner. And it is cost efficient, saving the need for stores, paper catalogues, and sales people.
--J. Paul Peter and Jerry C. Olson, Consumer Behavior and Marketing Strategy
Argument; conclusion: Marketing to consumers…for marketers.
4. After having a part time job for more than a year, I have gotten used to the fact that the government
takes money from me every two weeks to put toward Social Security. It isn't fair that I should pay for
some old person's rent in Florida. Despite my dislike of the right wing, I find the idea of privatizing
appealing. I would much rather keep that money to invest in mutual funds, stocks or my college
education.
Nonargument.
5. For a long time, Haydn's music was regarded as genial and lively, and much of its depth, wit, and
brilliance went unnoticed. This was because only a few of his compositions were performed regularly
at concerts. Nowadays, however, much more of Haydn's music is being performed, and the
extraordinary range of his achievement is being recognized.
Jeffrey Yudkin, Understanding Music, 4th edition
Nonargument
6. A full moon appears larger on the horizon than it does overhead not because of the refraction of the
atmosphere but because of an optical illusion. Objects in the foreground influence the perceived size
of objects in the background, and when the moon is on the horizon amid trees and houses the brain
interprets it as being larger than when it appears overhead in the absence of those objects.
Non argument
7. Health can be conceptualized from medical, functional, or psychological perspectives. The medical
model defines health as an absence of illness or disease, while the functional model defines health in
terms of individuals' ability to perform their assigned roles. The psychological model of health
emphasizes physical, psychological, and social well-being in measuring the health of individuals.
--Michael P. Soroka and George J. Bryjak, Social Problems: A World at Risk
Nonargument
8. Cow's milk is far from being the nutritious food that the American Dairy Association would have us
believe. To increase milk production, the cows are fed bovine growth hormone. This hormone
increases the production of insulin-like growth factor, which can cause cancer. Also, to keep them
healthy, the cows are fed antibiotics, which end up in the milk.
Argument; conclusion: Cow’s milk is far from being … have us believe.
9. The field of economics is divided into two major branches: microeconomics and macroeconomics.
Microeconomics studies the behavior of individual economic agents and how they interact with each
other in markets. Macroeconomics focuses on the overall level of economic activity in a society. It
studies such topics as unemployment, inflation, and the rate of economic growth.
--Don E. Waldman, Microeconomics
Nonargument
