Hello!!!!! Read the following excerpt from a speech by a national leader:

aggressive and unprovoked manner. We cannot stand idly
by and allow this country to steal our resources, enslave
our people, and cause great harm and violence.
Which addition to the speech best uses pathos to appeal to the audience?
A. We are allowed under international law to defend ourselves, and
we will not hesitate to do so with swift and decisive action.
B. The blood stained many innocent faces, and citizens wept as they
saw the destruction,
C. Imagine a world where our sons and daughters can live freely,
without fear of poverty and starvation.
D. Because we participate in the alliance system, our allies will come
to our defense, and our invaders will soon regret their aggression

C evokes the feeling of sadness, of pity that everyone will start to relate to the issue and think. What will become of the nation for out children? From here the speaker then can appeal to the audience by making them think of the future, and pity the people of the future, (specifically their children).
