Explanation: When writing, an author can use several rhetorical devices in order to persuade, inform or impact the audience in the desired way. Three of the must used rhetorical devices are ethos, logos, and pathos. Ethos is an appeal to the audience's ethics, logos is an appeal to the audience's logic and pathos is an appeal to the audience's emotions. In the given excerpt from "Common Ground and Common Sense" we can see an example of the use of ethos in the phrase "They work hard every day, I know. I live amongst them. I'm one of them" because the speaker is emphasizing in the fact that he understand and has lived the situation of which he is speaking, which makes him more believable.
