Question
Read this letter to the editor of a local newspaper. As an audiologist, I am well aware of the danger of hearing loss from noise pollution and leaf blowers are a terrible form of noise pollution. Furthermore, leaf blowers that operate on gas instead of electricity pollute the air. So I'd like to propose a half to the use of leaf blowers this autumn. Raking is good exercise. Respect your ears and your overall health. Show some love for yourself and the environment by putting down that leaf blower and picking up a rake! What type of appeal does the writer make to support his or her call to action? A. pathos only B. logos only C. ethos and pathos D. logos, pathos, and ethos
