Ethos is a way an author appeals to the reader/viewer. It is one of the 3 appeals...Ethos, Pathos and Logos
Ethos is based on credibility and building trust...so we are looking for facts or things that would make the author worth listening and a credible source.
Example:
Dentists across the world trust and use this toothpaste.
The fact that we know that dentists are endorsing this product adds to the appeal and credibility...it turn we trust it.

In the short tale "Emperor's New Clothes" by Hans Christian Andersen, the Emperor hires the swindlers because he loves wearing fancy clothes and a important procession is around the corner. These two swindlers promised him "the finest, best suit of clothes from a fabric invisible to anyone who is unfit for his position or hopelessly stupid". Since the Emperor's ministers didn't want to admit that they could not see the clothes, they lied to the Emperor. Eventually, the Emperor lied himself too and as a result he went naked to the procession.
Answer:
D. Repetition, anaphora, the list of three.
Explanation:
Speech writing is an art and to pursue it efficiently, it is vital to prepare an impressive speech and for that most commonly used literary techniques could be repetition, anaphora and the list of three. Repetition and anaphora would help to emphasize the value points in order to convey the message loudly and comprehensibly. The list of three would help to highlight the central idea and thought to the audience. This pattern is more commonly used to have a long-lasting impression on the minds of the audience and anaphora would play the part in sticking to their minds by reiterating the key concept.
