In Testing an Enthymeme for Validity, the Logician Must

Question 20

Multiple Choice

A) supply any missing information that logic requires and then treat it exactly as any other syllogism.
B) be careful to remember not to "read into" the material anything that is not explicitly stated.
C) supply any missing parts to the argument making allowances for the fact that this may make the argument slightly less plausible than might be desired.
D) supply any missing premises required by the logic of the argument, but remem- ber not to supply a missing conclusion; this is the same mistake committed
when the conclusion is diagrammed with a Venn diagram.
