109"The purpose of many advertisements is to make consumers want to buy a product so that they will ’be like’ the person in the ad. This practice is effective because it not only sells products but also helps people feel better about themselves."

159"The human mind will always be superior to machines because machines are only tools of human minds."

Argument:

165The following appeared in a business magazine.

"As a result of numerous consumer complaints of dizziness and nausea, Promofoods requested that eight million cans of tuna be returned for testing last year. Promofoods concluded that the cans did not, after all, contain chemicals that posed a health risk. This conclusion is based on the fact that the chemists from Promofoods tested samples of the recalled cans and found that, of the eight chemicals most commonly blamed for causing symptoms of dizziness and nausea, five were not found in any of the tested cans. The chemists did find that the three remaining suspected chemicals are naturally found in all other kinds of canned foods."
