Instructions General Instructions:

Quiz 3 consists of 10 questions. You are given 1 (one) hour to complete this quiz.

Questions 1­10:

You need to determine whether each of the given passages contains an Ad
Ignorantiam argument. If yes, you need, just like in the previous quizzes, to further
determine whether it involves an Ad Ignorantiam fallacy (i.e., whether it is a fallacious
argument). You also need to indicate whether there is the fallacy of complex question
present in each of the cases. Answer Y (Yes) or N (No) in the corresponding blanks.

IMPORTANT:
Please note that the quiz must be finished and submitted before the corresponding
deadline as in the schedule, not just started ­ once the deadline is reached, the system
will automatically stop the quiz and you will no longer be allowed to continue with the
quiz (so you might lose your points for the quiz). Also, when you are done, make sure
you press the Submit button ­ unless you do so, the quiz may not automatically be
submitted to the system (and you risk losing all the points for this quiz)!

If, while taking the Quiz, you experience any technical problems which prevent you
from completing the Quiz, you must immediately report your issue to the IT­people
responsible for the technical issues (not the instructor!) by following the "DL Help
Desk" link on the main course menu. The Help Desk people monitor and record the
current situation and they will then send their report to me, the instructor, with all the
relevant information. If not reported to the DL Help Desk, I, the instructor, will not be
able to verify any issues with the Quiz, and, as such, will not be able to change your
grade or give you any other attempt to finish the quiz.

Question 2 3 out of 3 points

[Joe McCarthy] announced that he had penetrated “Truman’s iron curtain of secrecy” and
that he proposed forthwith to present 81 cases. Cases of exactly what? “I am only giving the
Senate,” he said, “cases in which it is clear there is a definite Communist connection…
persons whom I consider to be Communists in the State Department.” Of Case 40, he said,
“I do not have much information on this except the general statement of the agency… that
there is nothing in the files to disprove his Communist connections.”
