Question

in paragraph 17 of the excerpt, how does lincoln use dogs to support his claim?

it appeals to logic by identifying the trait that men will be traveling

it appeals to logic by describing how men will look as they travel to the port

it appeals to emotion by describing the despair the men will feel upon returning

it appeals to emotion by predicting the excitement the men feel sharing the news

Explanation:

Logic appeals use rational reasoning. The option about describing how men will look as they travel (appealing to logic) is correct. The other options either involve emotion (which isn't the case here as "dogs" is a logical description of appearance in travel context) or incorrect logical elements.

Answer:

It appeals to logic by describing how men will look as they travel to the port.
