Keeping in mind the sources cited, discuss the credibility of the claim(s) made in the following passage:"Based on a survey of more than 100,000 people, Toshitaka Nomi and Alexander Besher have drawn up some startling conclusions about blood type and personality. If you are type O, you are probably aggressive and realistic. Type A? You are naturally industrious, detail-oriented, and peace-loving. Type Bs are creative and individualistic. ABs tend to be rational, but moody. YOU ARE YOUR BLOOD TYPE presents detailed analysis of the different blood types and explores the compatibility between the different types."-From a news release from Pocket Books about the first Western account "of the Japanese pop-phenomenon of blood-type analysis"
What will be an ideal response?
According to the release, the principal author, T. Nomi, is carrying on his father's work in blood-typing theory; Nomi's qualifications are that he has written many articles on the theory, has made many TV appearances, and has sold five million copies of twenty-two different books. Besher publishes translations of modern Japanese literature and contributes to the personal computer newsweekly InfoWorld. Given these qualifications of the authors and the nature of the reported results, we remain skeptical.

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
Answer the question in the following paragraph from one of the perspectives described in the text.Kevin's mother and father are divorced. Kevin is eight, and he lives with his father, John, for three months every summer. The rest of the time, except for occasional weekends, he lives two hundred miles away with his mother. John is the one with the problem: He and Kevin talked a lot last summer about getting a dog. For the first time, John is living in a house that has a backyard big enough to keep a dog and a fence around it as well. John had always used the "no place to keep it" line to avoid making promises, but that no longer applies. John finally promised to get Kevin a dog at the beginning of the next summer, and he knows Kevin is hoping to get one. In fact, John knows that Kevin is
expecting a dog with enough confidence that (a) he'll be very disappointed if he doesn't get one, even though he may not say much about it. Furthermore, (b) not getting a dog will deprive both Kevin and John of considerable pleasure, since John knows how happy it would make his son to get one. But the danger of having a dog around is that John lives alone during most of the year, and having a dog means being responsible for another creature. (c) When John travels, as his job requires him to do from time to time, who will look after the dog? He can't leave it with a friend for a week or two at a time. And he has no neighbors close by who could look after it. It looks like a difficult trade-off: Three months a year of pleasure for John, Kevin, and a dog, balanced against what might be nine months a year of frequent unpleasantness for both John and the dog. What should he do? What will be an ideal response?
