Answer:Two candidates for the Senate had a debate. The first candidate said, “Raising taxes now would be an affront to the memories of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. I could never support such an outrage.” His opponent replied, “I see the necessity of raising taxes now. We must find a way to balance our budget, and raising

taxes will allow us to fund important programs without going further into debt.”

How did the first candidate use bias to try to win this argument?

Sly, cunning, clever, crafty, scheming..

There are many options for you to choose from. The key here is seeing the relationships of the words. The first part of the analogy is Lamb is to meek. An adjective that frequently describes a lamb's behavior is meek which means gentle, shy, submissive. This tells us that we need an adjective that describes the common behavior of a fox. Sly, cunning, clever, crafty, and scheming could all be possibilities as they are all well-known common adjectives for a fox.
