"Auld Lang Syne" is traditionally sung at the conclusion of New Year gatherings in Scotland and around the world, especially in English-speaking countries. It is common practice that everyone joins hands with the person next to them to form a great circle around the dance floor. At the beginning of the last verse, everyone crosses their arms across their breast, so that the right hand reaches out to the neighbour on the left and vice versa. When the tune ends, everyone rushes to the middle, while still holding hands. When the circle is re-established, everyone turns under the arms to end up facing outwards with hands still joined. In countries other than Scotland the hands are often crossed from the beginning of the song at variance with Scottish custom. The Scottish practice was demonstrated by the Queen at the Millennium Dome celebrations for the year 2000. The English press berated her for not "properly" crossing her arms, unaware that she was correctly following the Scottish tradition. Which of the following cannot be correctly concluded from the passage? OPTIONS     1) Auld Lang Syne is sung at the conclusion of New Year gatherings in the United States.   2) The Scottish and the English have different ways in which to perform Auld Lang Syne.   3) In a circle, while performing Auld Lang Syne, at the end of the song, everyone walks towards the centre of the circle.   4) The Millennium Dome is in Scotland.   5) At the beginning of the last verse, everyone crosses their arms across their breast. discuss | yesterday's solution | more questions Tip of the Day In Fact, Inference, Judgement questions, it helps to take the elimination route rather than the selection route.

The title "Degradation of logical form" is meant to emphasize the immense loss of status I take logic to have undergone in recent decades, and to suggest something about its causes. Courses in so-called 'critical thinking' are, with rare and noble exceptions, only a further illustration of the point, for many of them, if not most, say nothing at all about logical form and formal logic, and proceed as if thought and discourse could be critically understood and appraised in total ignorance of their formal aspects. "Logic" as a special field of study is regarded as something which they can omit without harm to their work in philosophy because it has no essential connection with anything they must be responsible to in their practice. But the decline is also seen within the field of philosophy itself, where logic - thought not long ago to be the very heart of philosophy - has become an area of arcane specialization, and most students and faculty have as little to do with that as possible. This loss is most obvious in the context of higher education, where almost no post-secondary institutions now have effectual general requirements in standard formal logic, as that was easily understood thirty or more years ago.
