Answer:

A). The slideshow with photos of injured players.

Explanation:

'Pathos' is characterized as one of the three persuasive devices(as stated by Aristotle) which aims to persuade the audience to accept and believe in the claim by evoking their emotions.

As per the question, the scenario of 'displaying the photos of injured players' exemplifies the use of pathos as it attempts to persuade the audience by evoking the emotions of sympathy and pity from them through these pictures. The other examples offer logical claims as they display the factual or statistical content to gain acceptance from the audience. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
