Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The correct answer is A. Positive references to the audience's sense of right versus wrong.


B is incorrect because this would be the appeal to emotion, which is pathos, rather than ethos. C is incorrect because this is the appeal to logic, which is logos, rather than ethos. D is incorrect because this won't appeal to the audience much.

This leaves us with A, because ethics has to do with morals, with your understanding of what is right and wrong.

Answer 2
Answer: An appeal to ethics can best be described as (A) Positive references to the audience's sense of right versus wrong. The appeal to ethics is also known as ethos.
