Answer 1

@Whitemonsterbunny17 I think it's C. Blaming

Answer 2

Think, for a moment, that you are trying to persuade someone.

Perhaps, you'd like a cookie from the cookie jar.
Your mother says no.
What would you do?

Answer 3

A

Answer 4

You'd likely try to appeal to emotions, such as begging "pleeeeease, I'll love you forever!"

Answer 5

Hold on, we're just guiding you to the answer.. It's not A.

Answer 6

Another strategy to persuade may be to scare... "I'll turn into a cookie monster if I don't have that cookie!!"

Answer 7

And you may also use intellect to persuade... "a little sugar a day keeps the mind running.."

Answer 8

But you definitely would NOT want to use blame.

So, yes. \(\normalsize\bf\color{lime}C\) is correct. (:
