Read the following argument made by a speaker at a parent-teacher conference:
I'm a bank manager and parent of two high school
students, so I know just how important financial literacy is
for teenagers. College students today are graduating with
an average student debt of $24,800, yet only 1 in 5 high
schools nationwide are providing any type of financial
education. It's time for Springville High to start offering its
students financial education that is personal, practical, and
principled.
Which is the most effective characteristic of this argument?
O A. The speaker identifying his or her credentials and authority
O B. The optimistic view of college education and its benefits
O c. The use of strong emotional appeals to persuade the audience
o repetition of the key words "students' and 'education
