passage 1:
he must have said it at breakfast one morning when she had gone out on to the
terrace--peter walsh. he would be back from india one of these days, june or july,
she forgot which, for his letters were awfully dull; it was his sayings one remembered:
his eyes, his pocket-knife, his smile, his grumpiness and, when millions of things had
utterly vanished-how strange it was! -a few sayings like this about cabbages.
(from mrs. dalloway by virginia woolf)
passage 2:
ravi sat back on the harsh edge of the tub, deciding to hold out a bit longer. what fun
if they were all found and caught-he alone left unconquered! he had never known
that sensation. nothing more wonderful had ever happened to him than being taken
out by an uncle and bought a whole slab of chocolate all to himself, or being flung into
the soda man's pony cart and driven up to the gate by the friendly driver with the red
beard and pointed ears.
(from "games at twilight by anita desai)
passage 3:
the ghost of christmas yet to come conveyed him, as before though at a different
time, he thought: indeed there seemed no order in these latter visions, save that they
were in the future into the resorts of business men, but showed him not himself.
indeed, the spirit did not stay for anything, but went straight on, as to the end just now
desired, unbl besought by scrooge to larry for a moment.
"this court," said scrooge, through which we hurry now, is where my place of
occupation is, and has been for a length of time. i see the house. let me behold what i
shall be in days to come.
the spirit stopped; the hand was pointed elsewhere.
(from a christmas carol by charles dickens)

in "people in peace, not profit and war" chrisholm uses inductive reasoning for her argument against defense spending by stating that the new administration, like most americans, wanted to invest in social objectives, so they must not want to prioritize defense spending. mr. nixon said "we can delay no longer in launching new approaches to the problem that beset them", but chrisholm points out that the programs were delayed anyways.
