areas. As a result, the streets are very narrow, hous overcrowded and completely without windows. The people have been made to live in such crowded places for so 1ong that they have become ud to this kind of overcrowding; since they can expect nothing better, they no longer bother about it. The Jews was an oppresd minority in this colonial country. Their fate was even wor than that of the natives.

Lesson 4
1.Can you find any evidence to support the view that the writer is satirizing a bright but lf-satisfied young
man?
The whole story is satirizing a smug, lf-conceited freshman in a law school. The freshman is made the narrator of the story who goes on smugly boasting and singing prais of himlf at every chance he could get. From the very beginning in paragraph 4, he begins to heap on himlf all the beautiful words of prai he can think of such as “cool, powerful, preci and penetrating”,etc.At the same time the narrator takes every opportunity to downgrade Petey Bureh. For example, he calls him "dumb", "nothing upstairs ", "'unstable ", "impressionable" and "'a faddist ".And as for Polly Espy, she is "a beautiful dumb girl", who would smarten up under his guidance. It proves to be a big irony for the narrator when the dumb girl goes back to her former dumb boyfriend Petey Burch,just becau the latter has a raccoon coat.
2.Why does the narrator consider Petey Burch dumb as an ox?

The fallacy of "Dicto Simpliciter" is committed by an argument that applies a general rule to a particular ca in which some special circumstances ("accident") makes the rule inapplicable. The narrator shows it with the example: Exerci is good. Therefore everybody should exerci." In fact, “Exerci is good” is an unqualified generalization. For instance, if you have heart dia, exerci is bad, not good. Many people are ordered by their doctors not to exerci. You must qualify the generalization. You must say exerci is usually good, or exerci is good for most people.
5.What does Post Hoc mean? What example does the narrator give? What is Polly’s first reaction to this argument? The fallacy of Post Hoc mislocates the cau of one phenomenon in another that is only emingly related. The most common version of this fallacy mistakes temporal quence for causal connection. The narrator gives an example: Let’s take Bill on our picnic. Every time we take him out with us, it rains." She remembers a girl back home--Eula Becker. Every single time we take her on a picnic it rains.

the example? What does it show about her?
The fallacy of Ad Miricordiam is committed when the conclusion changes the point that is at issue in the premis, such as, when a trial lawyer, rather than arguing for his client's innocence, tries to m
ove the jury to sympathy for him. The narrator gives the example of a man applying for a job. When the boss asks him what his qualifications are, he replies that he has a wife and six children at home, the wife is a helpless cripple, the children have nothing to eat, no clothes to wear, no shoes on their feet, there are no beds in the hou, no coal in the cellar, and winter is coming." Polly is moved to tears by the poverty and miry of the worker. She is a simple, nice girl with the right feminine emotions.

Fal Analogy is committed when the two items don't have strong enough similarities to predict that what happens in one will happen in the other.Poisoning the Well means people speak against the man rather than to the issue. The premis may only make a personal attack on a person who holds some thesis, instead of offering grounds showing why what he says is fal
9.Why does the narrator say, “I was not Pygmalion; I was Frankenstein”? (Para.135)
