Species are disappearing at an accelerating rate through human action, primarily habitat destruction but also pollution and the

introduction of exotic species into residual natural environments. I have said that a fifth or more of the species of plants and animals could vanish or be doomed to early extinction by the year 2020 unless better efforts are made to save them. As the last forests are felled in forest strongholds like the Philippines and Ecuador, the decline of species will accelerate even more. In the world as a whole, extinction rates are already hundreds or thousands of times higher than before the coming of man. They cannot be balanced by new evolution in any period of time that has meaning for the human race. What message does the author convey in this excerpt?

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

No; Warren weakens her point by claiming that the Paycheck Fairness Act would "give women the tools to combat wage discrimination." No; Warren weakens her point by noting, "Today, a woman can get fired for asking the guy across the hall how much money he makes." Yes; Warren supports her point by noting, "Pay inequality also means a tougher retirement for women."

Explanation:

In addition to the aforementioned answer, the rhetoric that women make less simply because of discrimination, is factually inaccurate and is not supported by any data. In fact the difference in income is always drawn back to the job choices that women choose. Women are more art/literature bound for jobs whereas men choose higher paying jobs such as STEM, engineering, etc...

Well we can look at this question and eliminate Rhetorical Question due to the fact the excerpt above isn't asking anything. We can also eliminate an allusion because this is not an allusion it is a dream. We can then eliminate Logo's because it is a Greek word meaning logic. Pathos makes no sense because there is not pity or sadness involved. So the only option left is A)Ethos. I hope this helps
