English
1 answer:
exis [7]3 years ago
6 0

1) Accuracy. Verify the information you already know against the information found in the source. Look also for disclaimers as to the accuracy of the content. You may also want to double-check the information against a source that you already know is trustworthy. Even though a source may use technical language, the content may be misleading.

2) Authority. Make sure the source is written by a trustworthy author and/or institution. If you are using a webpage, you can usually identify the owner/publisher by the URL, or check for a copyright statement near the bottom of the page. Make sure the author has the proper credentials on the subject matter. Also, determine if the source is biased. For example, if it is medical information from a drug company, that company will provide information in support of its product. Be aware of the objectivity of the author and his/her viewpoints.

Which statement is an example of an appeal that uses pathos?
pshichka [43]
The correct answer is C. <span>The beautiful weather in San Diego will lift your spirits and make you feel alive.
Pathos refers to emotional appeal, which means that the narrator will use words which will appeal to the feelings of the readers or listeners. A, B, and D just state facts, and will more likely use logos or ethos rather than pathos.</span>
