Based on this excerpt, which statement is the most accurate assessment of Churchill’s use of rhetoric???
olasank [31]
A. Churchill in this response uses strong pathos to appeal to the listener's fear of Germany. He uses strong emotional words like "crafty" "treacheries" "dirty tricks" to show that the Germans are dangerous and to make the listener even more afraid than they were before. He uses this in order to get the listeners to fully support the English efforts.
