Hello. You forgot to show the answer options. The options are:

A. an appeal to emotion

B. an appeal to ethics

D. an appeal to the author’s character

C. an appeal to logic

Explanation:

The text presented above shows an appeal to logic as the rhetoric used to demonstrate how censorship can silence the powerless. This is because the narrator states that she describes how a high school class burned books that they believed were inappropriate. These "improper" books portrayed subjects that had a strong social impact and were considered dangerous because of the ideas they emitted. However, they were just books, they could not fight or defend themselves, they were powerless and therefore, it was logical that they were annulled through censorship.
