This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question:

Read the quotation from "Ain't I a Woman?" I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could head me! Which statement best explains why this is an example of ethos, or an appeal based on character and credibility?

A. It places Truth in a position of moral superiority.

B. It shows that Truth has experiences to support her claims.

C. It accentuates Truth’s belief in the importance of hard work.

D. It suggests that Truth considers herself stronger than others.

The answer to this question is B. It shows that Truth has experiences to support her claims.

Explanation:

The Ethos appeal focuses on explaining or proving the credibility of the speaker, this includes mentioning the experience or education of the speaker to show he/she is an expert in the topic, and therefore the speaker's ideas are credible. This appeal is the one used by the activist Sojourner Truth in "I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns..." because by mentioning her experience at work she shows her abilities are equal to those of men, and therefore her claim about equal rights for women proposed in this speech is valid.

Australia’s Great Barrier Reef may be on the verge of a massive outbreak of coral bleaching caused by sea temperatures soaring for the third time in six years.

“The entire reef has been in a bleaching hotspot for the past month, and excessively hot water is still spreading and intensifying,” says Tom Goreau of the Global Coral Reef Alliance in Cambridge, MA who issued the first warnings of the last bleaching epidemic two years ago. The sea is currently up to 2°C warmer than normal.

Goreau predicts that this bleaching “will be the worst yet,” and will extend across the South Pacific to the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and New Caledonia.
