I'm not sure you've included a set of statements to choose from.
However, remember that there are three modes of persuasion: pathos, logos, and ethos.
Pathos; pathological; an appeal to the audience's emotions.
Ethos; ethical; an appeal to the audience's ethics.

Analyze your answers and see which ones employ the modes of pathos and ethos; cross those out. You should be left with the correct answer.
