Which best describes the type of appeal used in this part of the speech?
The answer is:
A logical appeal
Explanation:
Rhetorical strategies are literary devices involving phrases or words that a writer or speaker uses to persuade the audience. Rhetorical appeals are of four forms:
Pathos is the appeal to emotion. This aims to incite an emotional response (empathy, sympathy, fear, anger, love etc.) in the audience
Ethos is the appeal to credibility, character or authority of the speaker. This forces the audience to think that the writer, speaker must be right because he/she is experienced, competent or of sound character.
Logos is the appeal to logic and reason. This involves the use of arguments, premises and evidence to persuade the audience.
Kairos is the appeal to urgency, circumstance or context. It involves persuasion based on the timeliness or context i.e. in light of current or near future issues.
