Question

Faith opened her speech by asking her classmates, "Would it surprise you to learn that you probably expose yourself to the leading killer of college-aged Americans at least three times a week?" What type of introduction was Faith using?

Answer 1

Answer:

using a rhetorical question

Explanation:

A rhetorical question is styled to make an effect or to lay emphasis on some point and not in a need for real answer. In literature, it is used as an impressive persuasive device. For example, if someone asks " who is better than me" not to get an answer but to enforce that he is the best. In the above-mentioned question, Faith posed this question as a taunt to her classmate and not to obtain an answer.
