Read the passage from an argument essay that argues against putting in a new compost bin behind
the school to recycle food waste.
Composting seems like a good idea, but I don't think it can work in a school environment. Students
are lazy. They will not want to separate food from the other trash. I definitely saw trash in the paper
recycling bins. That will probably happen with compost, too.
Why is the author's reasoning not sound in this passage?
O The author uses red herring and straw man fallacies.
O The author does not show a valid cause-and-effect relationship.
O The author includes ad hominem and slippery slope fallacies.
O The author uses incorrect facts about student behaviors.
