Widespread use of the Internet has led to an increase in certain crimes such as information theft and to new crimes like hacking. ████ █████ ████ ██ █████ ██ █████ ██ ███ ██████████ ██████ ██ ███ █████████ ██████ ████ ██ ████ ████ ████ ██ ████ ██████ ███████ ███ ████████ ████ ██ ███████ ██████████ ████ ██████ ████ ████ ███████ ███████████ ████ ████ ███ ███ █████████ ███ ████ ███████ █████ ██████ ██ █████ ██ ███████ ██████ █████ ███ ███████ ███ ██ ███ █████████
Objective: Build the Premise → Conclusion Bridge
The author advocates for more education on the ethics of Internet use to reduce crimes like information theft and hacking. Why should we take this approach? Because people feel a lack of moral responsibility for their actions online, which leads them to more readily harm others over the Internet.
To justify the reasoning, we're looking for a premise-to-conclusion bridge that fills in a gap in the argument. In this case, there are two gaps we could address. First, the author assumes that we should take steps to reduce the occurrence of Internet crimes. Second, even taking for granted that fixing the issue is worthwhile, the author doesn't explain how ethical education will help to fix the lack of moral responsibility people experience on the Internet.
The correct answer needs to bridge at least one of those gaps. It could be worded in a variety of different ways, but in some form it will better connect the author's premises and conclusion. An answer that bridges the first gap would tell us that it is actually important to reduce the occurrence of Internet crimes. To bridge the second gap, the correct answer would confirm that ethical education increases people’s feelings of moral responsibility on the Internet.
