To determine the type of argument used in the speech, we need to analyze the content of the passage. Since the passage is not provided, I can give you a brief overview of each type of argument:
- Logos refers to logical reasoning, where the author uses facts, statistics, and rational arguments to persuade the audience.
- Ad hominem attacks the character or motives of the person making an argument rather than addressing the argument itself.
- Syntax refers to the arrangement of words and phrases to create well-formed sentences, but it is not a type of argument.
- Pathos appeals to the audience's emotions, using emotional language or anecdotes to elicit feelings in order to persuade.
If you can provide the passage, I can help identify which argument is used. Otherwise, you can choose based on these definitions!
