2. Three relatable examples
You choose a restaurant to eat at based on the color of the sign or the decor of the establishment, even though the quality of the food has nothing to do with the appearance of the restaurant.

You decide to attend a particular college because of the campus layout or the weather in the area, even though the quality of education or job prospects after graduation are more important factors.
