13The twofold focus of virtue ethics is on [blank_start]character[blank_end] (how we are on the inside) and on [blank_start]virtues[blank_end].
- Acharacter
- Bvirtues
14The two assumptions of virtue ethicists are:
- Athat a virtuous person's actions fall within the range of what is right and fair
- Bthat virtuous person behaves morally because that's just how they are
- Cthat a virtuous person behaves morally because they know its the right thing to do
- Dthat a virtuous person's actions are morally right all the time
15Why be virtuous? Aristotle on Eudaimonia. [blank_start]Virtue[blank_end] is necessary to attain eudaimonia, total [blank_start]well-being[blank_end].

- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
17Being virtuous has to be our number one priority
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
18Being virtuous is the number one priority of some (moral saints).
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
19Most of us have interests and talents worth developing that have nothing to do with virtue. Our lives should be big enough to develop both our virtuous aspiration as well as our non-virtuous ones.
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
20Because virtue ethics offers a more adequate account of moral motivation...

21[blank_start]Virtue ethics[blank_end] corrects the impartiality of [blank_start]action-based ethics[blank_end]. That is, [blank_start]virtue ethics[blank_end] makes a place for the partiality we naturally feel toward some people, like our family members, our significant others, our neighbors perhaps. [blank_start]Action-based[blank_end] theories do not allow for this partiality.
- AVirtue ethics
- Baction-based ethics
- Caction-based ethics
- Dvirtue ethics
- Evirtue ethics
- Faction-based ethics
- GAction-based
- Hvirtue ethics
22The view that virtue ethics is independent of action-based ethics is complete in itself and therefore we have no need for action-based ethics is called [blank_start]radical[blank_end] [blank_start]virtue[blank_end] [blank_start]ethics[blank_end].
- Aradical
- Bvirtue
- Cethics
23The main problem with radical virtue ethics is the problem of [blank_start]incompleteness[blank_end].
- Aincompleteness
24The possession of a particular virtue—say, honesty—means that one does not lie. Some people say this means that a person who is honest simply follows the rule, Do not lie. But it can reasonably be asked why following such a rule is important. And the answer to this question , it is argued, must resort to some sort of [blank_start]action-based[blank_end] theory concerning what makes certain acts right and certain acts wrong. In the case of honesty (following the rule, Don’t lie), reasonable answers to the question Why Not Lie? might be such as “It promotes the general welfare.” This is clearly a utilitarian explanation of why it is important to follow a rule like Do Not Lie.
- Aaction-based
- BVirtue-based
25So one way radical virtue ethics is incomplete is that
- Awe need a theory of rightness in order to justify the rules of behavior that accompany the possession of virtues
- Bit does not allow you to possess a virtue, like honesty, but sometimes lie
- Cit explains why you choose to possess the virtues
26Virtues are acquired through m[blank_start]oral[blank_end] e[blank_start]ducation[blank_end], h[blank_start]abituation[blank_end], and aiming at the m[blank_start]ean[blank_end] in f[blank_start]eelings[blank_end] and p[blank_start]assions[blank_end] and actions.
- Aoral
- Bducation
- Cabituation
- Dean
- Eassions
- Feelings
27First:
- Awe're not born with virtues in our character, nor vices
- Bour characters are a product of our experience, education, aspiration, all after we come into the world
- Cwe're born with virtues and vices in our character
28When we are born, our characters are [blank_start]like blank slates[blank_end].
- Alike blank slates
- Balready formed
29Moral education is what most people get from older family members, teachers, etc.
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
30Moral education by itself [blank_start]does not[blank_end] make you a virtuous person.
- Adoes not
- Bdoes
31The limiting thing of moral education is that through moral education we learn what qualities of character we ought to have, but just having an intellectual recognition that they are characters you ought to have doesn’t make you a (fair, benevolent, just, etc.) person.
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
32Through habituation, we become a fair [or whatever virtue] person
- Aby behaving fair enough times and eventually becoming a fair person
- Bbecause we were born that way
- Cafter learning to become a fair person through moral education
33Through habituation you [blank_start]make a habit[blank_end] to become whatever virtue you want to become.
- Amake a habit of it
- Bmake a choice
34Habituating ourselves also means aiming at the means in passions and actions
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
35Aiming at the mean in passions and actions does not bring into play our human intellectual capabilities
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
36Finding the mean in the situation is the practical [blank_start]role[blank_end] of [blank_start]reason[blank_end] in ethics.
- Arole
- Breason
37Aristotle would say it's wrong to say you [blank_start]can't[blank_end] control your emotions.
- Acan't
- Bcan
38Reacting appropriately to someone punched your friend means not reacting the way you would react if someone killed your friend (too much) or reacting the way you would if someone accidentally bumped into you (too little). This is an example of
- Amoral education
- Bhabituation
- Caiming at the mean in passions and actions
39Being virtuous
- Amay be difficult at first, but gets easier
- Bmay be difficult and too challenging for some people
- Cis easy for everyone
40Being virtuous is pleasurable for the truly [blank_start]virtuous[blank_end] person.
- Avirtuous
41Radical virtue ethics is also incomplete because it is difficult to see how [blank_start]unsupplemented[blank_end] virtue theory could handle cases of moral [blank_start]conflict[blank_end].
- Aunsupplemented
- Bconflict
