I don't believe that the Internet can ever be a reliable source for students to use in their work, at least as long as it remains unregulated as it is now. With so many different web sites out there and no way to verify the validity of the information on them, the Internet is just too hit and miss to be of any use. It's just like a bad baseball player; if you only hit one ball out of ten, it doesn't matter if the one you hit is a homerun - the major leagues don't want you.

a. Personal Experience and Testimonial

b. Testimonial and Authority

Answer: c. Personal Experience and Analogy

Explanation:

Personal experience and analogy, are different sources of evidence that are usually applied to support factual claims. Others are intuition, personal observation, appeal to authority, case example, testimonial, survey, and research study.

Personal experience refers to what we only know based on experiences we had ourselves, such as the firsts impressions on the internet in this example.

An analogy is the comparison of two different things to show a significant similarity between them, such as the baseball player reference.
