Read the excerpt from The Republic by Plato. Suppose then that we invite him to accompany us in the argument, and then we may hope to show him that there is nothing peculiar in the constitution of women which would affect them in the administration of the State. By all means Let us say to him:Come now, and we will ask you a question:-when you spoke of a nature gifted or not gifted in any respect,did you mean to say that one man will acquire a thing easily, another with difficulty; a little learning will lead the one to discover a great deal; whereas the other after much study and application, no sooner learns than he forgets; or again, did you mean that the one has a body which is a good servant to his mind, while the body of the other is a hindrance to him?-would not these be the sort of Which type of reasoning or device best supports the speaker's claim that women are as qualified as men manage the state? abductive reasoning, because the speaker expla how women make decisions deductive reasoning, because the speaker provides examples of how women are qualified kairos, because the speaker calls for immediate equality for women in government ethos, because the speaker describes the women he thinks deserve to be leaders

Answer 1

The type of reasoning or device that best supports the speaker's claim that women are as qualified as men to manage the state is:**deductive reasoning, because the speaker provides examples of how women are qualified**In the excerpt, the speaker uses deductive reasoning by presenting a general principle about natural abilities and then applying it to both men and women. The argument suggests that if individuals (regardless of gender) possess the necessary qualities and abilities, they should be equally capable of managing the state. This logical approach supports the claim that women are as qualified as men for leadership roles.
