Explain in one or two sentences how the following statement could be unwarranted implication.
*no other vitamin or preventive measure against illness is better than vitamin c.

the claim is an unwarranted implication because it claims there is no other vitamin, or preventative measure, better than vitamin c to prevent disease.

explanation:

this statement is unwarranted because there is no scientific evidence that vitamin c is the most effective and superior preventative method available in the world. vitamin c is a great preventative method, but has never been proven to be the best. there are other very good methods that can also be used to prevent diseases and will have positive results.

the statement is an unwarranted implication because it suggests the idea that vitamin c is the best component in order to prevent potential illnesses. however, this claim is not justified, as there are other preventive measures one can take in order to prevent illness and no medical institution has come to claim that vitamin c is the best preventive measure.

themselves

an intensive pronoun is a pronoun that ends in self or selves, such as himself, herself, themselves, yourself, ourselves. since band members is a third person plural, the correct intensive pronoun would be themselves. if the band was talked about as a collective noun, itself would be the appropriate intensive pronoun. intensive pronouns are used to add emphasis to the noun it's modifying which is why it directly follows it.
