Question

Persuading your audience that you can protect them from harm is an example of a(n) ____________ appeal based on the desire for _____________.
a.
logical; safety
b.
safety; emotional
c.
logical; emotional
d.
emotional;safety

Answer 1

The first blank has to be either logical or emotional, so you can rule out B. Next-the second blank. The second black cannot be "emotional", it just doesn't make sense, so you can rule out C. Now we're left with A and D. So is the appeal logical or emotional? The question says that you persuade your audience, and persuading requires using logic more so than in emotion(in most cases). I'd say your best bet is A.
