On their first date, Rebecca asked Andy what he did for a living. Andy responded vaguely, "Oh, I work in retail." Rebecca had to ask Andy "What types of stores?" and "What types of positions have you held?" in order to get him to provide any specific details. We would categorize Andy's initial highly abstract response as equivocation. A. TrueB. False.

    Answer:B

    (Equivocation occurs from a reasoning error other than a flaw in the logical form of the communication. In the case of the question, Andy only gave little detail but did not display ambiguity. This had nothing to do with how the sentence was structured or its grammar.)
