I'm assuming you are referring to the Declaration of Independence.

Ethos is an appeal to ethics. The principle of it is to prove to the reader that the writer is credible and reasonable. In the Declaration of Independence Jefferson does this very skillfully in the first line when he says that the declaration is written out of respect for those that must judge the rightness or wrongness of the colonies decision to break away from Great Britain. This establishes his credibility.

Since you have not given any reference to the declaration you're talking about, i'll just go and try to help you how ethos could appeal to a speech or essay. Ethos refers to the credibility or personality/character of the speaker. For example, someone who has been through the World War II can be appeal to ethos when it comes to his experiences in it and to persuade you to do diplomatic negotiation instead.

Which best describes the type of appeal used in this part of speech
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

I believe the complete question and excerpt are:

Read the excerpt from Franklin Roosevelt's request for a declaration of war.

"It will be recorded that the distance of Hawaii from Japan makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. "

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:

  1. Pathos is the appeal to emotion. This aims to incite an emotional response (empathy, sympathy, fear, anger, love etc.) in the audience
  2. 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.
  3. Logos is the appeal to logic and reason. This involves the use of arguments, premises and evidence to persuade the audience.
  4. 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.

In the current case, Franklin Roosevelt develops an argument and presents his premises on the Pearl Harbor attack and how long the Japanese Empire had been planning it.

What are ur goals for this year? also as a student in highschool?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

This question requires a personal answer. I will give you an explanation and some examples so that you can answer it with your own goals.

Explanation:

   To answer this question you must establish what your own goals are for this year.

One talks about goal or goals in life to talk about the objectives that are intended to be achieved in life. These are abstract objectives although they may be associated with specific objectives. For example: "My goal this year is to pass all my subjects."

The goals must have the following characteristics:

  • It must be achievable. An unreal or unattainable goal ceases to be so, and becomes more of a dream, a fantasy or an imagination.
  • It must be observable. Goals must be part of a current system, that is, they must be measurable against a starting point in the subject. Otherwise it would not be possible to know when it is fulfilled.
  • It must occur in a finite time. Goals must be able to be met within a certain time frame, they cannot be eternal.
