Question

which statement primarily appeals to ethos to support the position that celebrities should be more involved in politics? although it is true that most celebrities lack political experience, this drawback is less important than the advantage gained from their name recognition, which could be used to do good in society. celebrities should follow the example of actress and filmmaker angelina jolie, who has served as a u.n. goodwill ambassador, among other things. celebrity activists can make a world of difference in raising awareness of and support for the worlds most exploited, abused, and needy.

Explanation:

Ethos appeals to credibility or established examples of moral/authoritative figures. The correct statement uses a well-known celebrity (Angelina Jolie) with a verified, respected political/activist role (U.N. Goodwill Ambassador) to set a credible precedent for celebrity political involvement. The other statements focus on name recognition benefits (practical appeal) and general impact (emotional/ practical appeal), not ethos.

Answer:

Celebrities should follow the example of actress and filmmaker Angelina Jolie, who has served as a U.N. Goodwill Ambassador, among other things.
