Question

read the excerpt from \how the internet and other technologies came about.\
in a scenario of two dazed boxers lying flat on their backs, slowly regaining consciousness, the winner of wo
war iii would be that country which could stand on its feet first (and so go on to win world war vi). therefore
the pentagons priority was to provide scientists with a way to rebuild the country as fast as possible,
unimpeded by unnecessary restrictions.
which type of rhetoric is used most in this excerpt to convince readers of the authors point of view?
○ an appeal to logic
○ an appeal to the authors character
○ an appeal to emotion
○ an appeal to ethics

Explanation:

El autor presenta un argumento lógico: en un escenario de dos países debilitados (como boxeadores aturdidos), el que se recupere primero (reconstruya rápidamente) ganará (en términos de "Guerra Mundial III"). Esto es un razonamiento lógico basado en una analogía y una consecuencia lógica (reconstruir rápido = ganar). No hay apelación a la emoción (sin palabras emotivas), a la ética (sin valores morales) ni al carácter del autor (no se menciona su credibilidad personal).

Answer:

an appeal to logic
