read the excerpt. then choose the correct way to complete the sentence.
the rhetorical appeal found in this excerpt of the speech is
ethos, because it appeals to the moral argument for fighting germany
ethos, because churchill reminds his audience of his qualifications to lead during this crisis
pathos, because it appeals to audiences feelings of unity and patriotism
logos, because churchill describes the military preparations britain has already made

Explanation:

To determine the correct rhetorical appeal, we analyze each option:

• Ethos relates to the speaker's credibility. Churchill reminding the audience of his qualifications to lead during a crisis is an appeal to his credibility (ethos).
• The first "ethos" option's reasoning about moral argument for fighting Germany is less accurate to Churchill's typical ethos use here.
• Pathos appeals to emotions (unity/patriotism feelings), but the scenario of reminding qualifications is ethos.
• Logos uses logic/facts (military preparations), which doesn't match "reminding qualifications". So the correct option is the one about ethos and Churchill's qualifications.

Answer:

ethos, because Churchill reminds his audience of his qualifications to lead during this crisis
