Hоnоrlоck Essаy #2:  Provided Argument: It is not the possible for me to buy both а Lаmborgini and an Aston Martin today. Since I have decided not to buy the Aston Martin today, I thus must buy the Lamborgini today. In an essay, respond to the following prompts in this order: Step 1: Standard Form Application: Reconstruct and summarize the content of the argument in the passage above using Standard Form (P1, P2, P3…C). Make sure to properly identify the conclusion and premises first. Also make sure to express all logical operators/terms clearly.***As usual, try not to quote each sentence, word-for-word, but rather capture the general meaning of each sentence in summary. It is also preferable to separate distinct reasons given in support of the conclusion as distinct premises. ***In constructing your argument in Standard Form, also consider whether there are any suppressed/assumed premises, and add them if/as needed. Step 2: General Form Application: Maintaining the Standard Form organization, rewrite your reconstruction of the argument above in the argument’s General Form (i.e. removing all specific content, and substituting variables/capital letters in their place). Make sure to keep any logical operators/connectives in their proper place. Step 3: Composition --Paragraph 1: Identify by name the invalid general form that you have ended up with. Explain what it is about this general form that makes it invalid, using as much detail and accurate usage of relevant terminology as you can. --Paragraph 2: Explain in general how the Counterexample Method for providing invalidity works. Make sure to clearly define and explain important terms like “substitution instance.”Step 4: Counterexample Application: Create your own Substitution Instance for the argument above, which fits all the necessary and sufficient conditions for a Counterexample, thereby proving the argument’s General Form is invalid, and thus the specific argument is also invalid.  ***Make sure the truth-values for each part of your Substitution Instance argument clearly adheres to the requirements for being a convincing/persuasive counterexample, which thus proves invalidity.
