Transcript text: When we read about a child being injured this invokes pathos. mythos. ethos. logos.
Solution
The answer is: pathos.
Explanation for each option:
Pathos: This is the correct answer. Pathos refers to an appeal to emotion. When we read about a child being injured, it typically evokes feelings of sympathy, sadness, or compassion, which are emotional responses.
Mythos: This is incorrect. Mythos refers to a traditional or recurrent narrative theme or plot structure, often involving myths or cultural stories. It does not directly relate to the emotional response invoked by reading about a child's injury.
Ethos: This is incorrect. Ethos refers to the credibility or ethical appeal of the speaker or writer. It is about convincing the audience of the author's credibility or character, not about evoking an emotional response.
Logos: This is incorrect. Logos refers to an appeal to logic or reason. It involves persuading the audience through logical arguments and evidence, rather than through emotional appeal.
I don't know: This is not an answer but an option indicating uncertainty. The correct answer is pathos, as it directly relates to the emotional response invoked by the scenario described.
