an author claims that "athletes caught using performance-enhancing drugs should be sentenced to prison." the author provides the following reason as support:

a cool article in kid's sports magazine says athletes are role models. i agree! it's heartbreaking for kids to learn that our heroes are cheaters. if players do steroids, send them to prison! they deserve to be punished for making us look stupid for cheering for them.

which choice best describes the reason the author provides?

a. it is effective. it supports the claim clearly and logically.
b. it is emotional. it expresses personal feelings that cannot be backed with research.
c. it is irrelevant. it discusses a fact that is off topic and does not support the claim.
d. it is unverified. it does not cite a source to show where the information was located.

the answer is the government.

since most of current immigration into the u.s., both legal and illegal, is coming from latin america. it would be very difficult to imagine or rationalize a country my fellow citizens are trying desperately to flee into, would pose a threat to my prosperity or freedom. since the u.s. has a long history of intervention, but no record of permanent occupation, i would not feel oppression is the main objective.  

the largest free trade nation, along with the largest gdp in the world wanting to expand it's economic policy on us, and including us, could only be positive. the u.s. government has no interest in, or way of simply forcing american culture on us. and has no track record of it. other nations that adopted american social culture, or "americanization" did so voluntarily, mainly through the choice of allowing american businesses and u.s. citizens to come into their nations, as free operatives.
