TFY chapter 5 ASSUMPTION'S SUMMARY

Assumptions is a statement that is assumed to be true and from which conclusion can be drawn.
We can find an assumption in cartoons , stories etc.Well, there are different types of assumption they are; conscious or unconscious, warranted or unwarranted assumptions.Assumption that are only recognised after circumstances revealed their errors are known as unconscious and if a family invites u for a dinner , you can assume that you will not pay for the meal and in other hand if you go to restaurant , it would be unwarranted to expect a free meal.
Hidden assumption are unconscious assumptions that greatly influence a line of reasoning and another type is value assumption which means belief that unconsciosly influence our thinking .
There are three types of layer of pyramid value of assumptions , on the top layer is Explicit reasoning, layers of hidden assumption and hidden basic belief or value assumption.We percieve incongruities when we observe situations that donot meet our expectations or assumptions.
In this chapter we learn about an assumption which means what we expect when we see something or what we think when someone says something to us.Assuming is important to understand someone or something.By assuming we can have belief or trust on other.Different people have different opinion on assumptions.
