Read this passage from a message to a new friend:
Since I don't have a driver's license, I can't drive. I have to depend on my dad to take me to the party. How totally embarrassing!
Which are the two strongest appeals used in this passage?

A. Pathos and logos

B. Kairos and logos

C. Ethos and pathos

D. Logos and ethos

Respuesta :

A. Pathos and Logos. Emotion and logic

Answer: A. Pathos and logos

In this passage, the speaker uses both pathos, which is an appeal to emotion, and logos, which refers to an appeal based on logic. She first states that because she does not have a license, she cannot drive. This is a logical argument. Afterwards, she states that it is "totally embarrasing" to be driven to the party by her father. In this case, the speaker makes an appeal to pathos, or to emotions.
