Question

Select the correct text in the passage.

Answer 1

Answer:

To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.

Explanation:

Rhetoric, simply put, is an art of leading an argument; persuading someone to believe in your arguments.

Even Aristotle gave three basic rhetorical devices, one of which is logos.

Logos is an appeal to logic, or more elaborate, providing evidence and facts to convince someone.

"Declaration of Independence" is filled with examples for all three rhetorical devices. Considering logos, the best example of it, from this excrept would be stating all the injustice treatments and rights violated by King George, in order to justify the fight for independence.

Before stating them, he says he will prove this by stating facts. By emphasizing that these claims are facts he gives them weight and meaning.
