Answer 2

A Fortune study on performance reviews in the tech industry found that words like ‘bossy, abrasive, strident, and aggressive’ appear in reviews of female leaders more frequently than men.

Answer 3

Based on the sentence provided, the author primarily uses the following types of rhetoric:

1. **Logos**: The sentence presents a study with specific findings, which is a logical appeal that uses evidence and reasoning to support a claim about gender bias in performance reviews.

2. **Pathos**: The mention of negative words used to describe female leaders invokes an emotional response regarding gender discrimination and the challenges faced by women in leadership positions.

Therefore, the two correct answers are:

- **logos**
- **pathos**
