Explanation:

4. Appeal to authority is a technique used in argument by quoting what an authority figure said. They then firm a conclusion based on what the authority said.

Option A is the best answer. The person is quoting an authority figure to persuade the audience into accepting his argument.

5. Appeal to reason simply involves making logical statements, or giving reasons why something occured in a logical manner, in an attempt to make the audience accept the argument.

Option D appeals to reason. It simply gives a reason why people should vote against the mayor's plan.

6. Appeal to mention only merely seeks to touch the emotions of people, and thereby sway and seek the support of the audience.

Option B is a perfect example, as the statement would move the audience to pity rather than reasoning.
