Odysseus answered well when the priests showed him a picture of those
who had honored the gods and then escaped shipwreck,and asked him
whether he did not now acknowledge the power of the gods-"Yes,"he
said,"but where are those picutred who were drowned after their
prayers?" And such is the way of superstitions;wherein humans,having
a delight in such vanities,mark the events there they are fulfilled
,but where they fail,though this happens much oftener,neglect and
pass them by.
Which one of the following contains the error of reasoning described
by the author in the passage?
A)I have discovered that Friday the 13th really is a day of
misfortune,Just this past Friday,the 13th,I locked myself out of the
house.
B)Although Napoleon and Alexander the Great were short,Abraham
Lincoln and Charies de Gaulle were tall.So short people seek
leadership in order to overcome feelings of inferiority.
C)Every semester for the past 15 years,an average of 10 percent of
Ms. Elliot's history students have dropped her course before the
exam.So,it seems likely that we can expert 10 percent to drop out
this year.
D)No reliable observer has ever actually seen a yeti.The strongest
evidence seems to be some suspicious tracks.So I think this search
for a yeti is probably a wild-goose chase.
E)I can not trust my lucky shirt any longer,I wore it to the game
today and our team lost.

absence if it does not find out that she has been offered the fellow
