Which statement best explains the type of appeal the author is using in this passage millions of dollars have been appropriated by congress each year for "indian education." all you have to do is encourage your school to use these resources. my indian child has a constitutional right to learn and maintain his culture. by the same token, i believe that non-indian children have a constitutional right to learn about our native american heritage and culture, because indians play a significant part in the history of western society. a. the author is making an appeal to pathos by giving definitions and descriptions to inform the audience. b. the author is making an appeal to ethos by providing facts and evidence to support his argument. c. the author is making an appeal to logos by using strong words to evoke an emotional response in the audience. d. the author is making an appeal to ethos by referring to respected institution such as the u. s congress

The correct answer is D. The author is making an appeal to ethos by referring to a respected institution such as the U.S. Congress

Explanation:

During speeches or texts in most cases the author aims at convincing the audience or readers about one specific idea or believe for this the author can use pathos that refers to the use of emotions; logos that refers to the use of logic or ethos that is about using the ideas and beliefs people have about one institution or community to make one idea valid. Considering this, the type of appeal or technique that is using the author in the passage is an appeal to ethos when he refers to the U.S. Congress, because it uses the prestige or positive ideas about the U.S. Congress to show this organization provides the money required for "Indian Education" but the issue is on people or schools who do not ask for the resources, which means he uses the positive ideas people have on the U.S. Congress as a respected institution to show the main point in the passage.
