This poster is trying to persuade the citizen that in order to win the war they must not say anything.

Answer 14

There are three types of appeals:
Logos - the logical appeal
Pathos - the emotional appeal
Ethos - the moral appeal

Logos appeals to someones rationality. You should donate to the Humane Society because it is more cost effective to have us get strays off the streets, than having them cause car accidents.

Pathos appeals to the emotions of the reader. You should donate to the Human Society because....

*Depict images of dogs in poor conditions, sad faces, sick, hurt, etc

Ethos appeals to the morals of the reader. You should donate to the Humane Society because it's the right thing to do.

Answer 15

Answer 17

They use logos: Essentially, 'talking will undermine the war effort' which is a logic based appeal. Spreading information = consequence

Pathos is used as well, since the character depicted in the background looks like an evil man. Thus morality compels me to combat that evil.
