Question

How does Roosevelt support his position that employees should receive compensations in case of an injury or death in paragraph 4?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is A) He appeals to the audience's emotions.

Roosevelt supported his position that employees should receive compensations in case of an injury or death in paragraph 4 in that "He appeals to the audience's emotions."

We are referring to US President Theodore Roosevelt's speech about labor legislation, delivered in March 1908. President Roosevelt said: "In addition to a liability law protecting the employees of common carriers, the Government should show its good faith by enacting a further law giving compensation to its own employees for injury or death incurred1 in its service. It is a reproach to us as a Nation that in both Federal and State legislation we have afforded less protection to public and private employees than any other industrial country of the world."

President Roosevelt tried to use Pathos, or the emotional approach to convince his audience.
