Explanation:

The sentence "In the following pages I offer nothing more than simple facts, plain arguments, and common sense" uses parallelism. Parallelism is the repetition of grammatical structures in a series. Here, "simple facts", "plain arguments", and "common sense" have a similar grammatical structure (adjective - noun). There is no emotional language, metaphor, or rhetorical question in this sentence.

Answer:

C. Parallelism
