Each time I've exercised without stretching, I've gotten sore. Therefore, I get sore because I do not stretch before exercising. Which part of this statement is the generalization?

Therefore, I get sore because I do not stretch before exercising.

Explanation:

A generalization is simply taking one fact or a number of facts and then using that to make a broad universal statement. For example, when you say all dogs chase cats, because you have a dog that chases cats, then that is a generalization. From the question, we see that because the writer as gotten sore a couple of times without stretching during exercise, he or she generalizes that "I get sore because I do not stretch before exercising".
