Question
2

The reasoning in the argument is flawed because the argument

uses the inherently vague term "beautiful" without providing an explicit definition of that term

attempts to establish an evaluative conclusion solely on the basis of claims about factual matters

concludes, simply because an object possesses two qualities that are each common to all works of art, that the object is a work of art

presumes, without providing justification, that only objects that are beautiful are instructive

fails to consider the possibility that there are many things that are both beautiful and instructive but are not part of the natural world
