    The document discusses arguments and their structure. It defines an argument as having premises and a conclusion. It also defines deduction and induction. Deduction reasons from general statements to specific conclusions, while induction reasons from specific observations to general conclusions. Three forms of arguments are identified: (1) if all A are B and C is A, then C is B; (2) if p then q, and p is true, then q is true; (3) if p then q, and not q is true, then not p is true. Examples of each argument form are given with premises and conclusions to be filled in. The document also provides examples of incomplete arguments to be completed.
