The use of rhetorical questions in the excerpt advance the speaker's purpose of persuading the judge to give a lighter sentence is the rhetorical questions imply that a harsher sentence would only serve to make people crueler.

Speaking, writing and reading are an integral part of everyday life, where language is the primary tool of expression and communication. Studying how people use language—what words and phrases they unconsciously choose and combine—can help us better understand ourselves and why we behave the way we do.

Hence, the correct answer is “the rhetorical questions imply that a harsher sentence would only serve to make people crueler.”
