Answer:

Habituation

Explanation:

Habituation is the term that refers to the progressive decrease of a response of the organism due to repetitive stimulation. In other words, habituation happens when a body is exposed to a stimulation so many times in a row that it causes an accustomment that progressively decreases the response of that body to the stimulus. An example of this can be seen in the question above. That's because Miron has become so used to the noises that his neighborhood has that these noises no longer disturb him.

_____ is a persuasive strategy of appealing to emotions in order to convince others to support your position.
faltersainse [42]
I believe the answer is: Pathos

Pathos could be initiated by various strategies. For example, the speaker could appeal to the emotions by telling an emotional story about his/her past experience, but still related to the topic of the speech.
Other strategy would be to build the persuasive case on the culture/tradition that could be related by most of the audiences.
