Unit 4

The information that I find interesting in this unit is about what is the evidence? This topic is about the issue of evidence. There is about the cases of kidnapping of Charles Lindbergh son, it continues with the investigation and lead to the execution of Bruno Hauptman. It stress on to the reader to have deeply thinking of everything in the cases, the evidence, past event and the history that related to the cases. We need to figure out about the true meaning of evidence before make a conclusion in something. In every case, there are sometimes hard to figure out whether the evidence is concrete and in some part, the evidence can be doubted. The topic that I find hard to understand is the statistic. The topic is stress on to the reads to give more responses to the text that have facts and statistic also to show about the use and misuse of statistics. There are many place that statistic can be use on especially on the text. The statistics in the text is develop to influences the readers decision and stance toward something. It is hard to identify whether the statistics that have been used in the text is purposely to influence the reader or not. In the reading “burning out nine”, I have take approach to analysis the evidence that the writer used to influence the readers. It is by looking by any quotation and analysis that maybe appear in the text. The area that problematic is the crooked and fallacious thinking especially in context where there is intent to persuade people towards particular belief. It is hard to figure out what is the crooked and fallacious thinking to the reads because every reader is different and we did not know whether the crooked and fallacious thinking happen or not.
