The correct answer is "Ethos".

"Ethos" is a Greek word that means "character". It is also used to make reference to beliefs or ideas that characterize a group of people. This term is often used to describe the persuasive technique of being able to reach someone's behavior or morals and influence them in order to obtain the desired result.

In this case, Laurel is trying to convince them that she has a strong sense of responsibility, as she has worked as a baby sitter before despite having the option to go out with her friends.

Change the phrase "shooting the breeze" because it is too informal and cannot be understood literally.

When doing a research on your a topic , when you find out you have too much information for the three page essay what do you do?

That's an enviable position to be in.

The best thing to do is limit your topic sentence so you can cut some of the material out of the essay.

I don't remember who said it, but there was a film director who commented once that the best film was on the floor. He meant that what he cut out of the film was better than what he released.

You could also hand in more than was asked for, but it had better have been good. In general teachers don't like that because it is not handled well. Sometimes too much material is not better than not enough.
