3 modes identified + dominant labeled + audience reasoning = 4; 3 modes identified only = 3; 2 modes = 2; <2 or no audience reasoning = 1
Hints
  1. ETHOS = credibility (her authority as survivor + Nobel laureate). PATHOS = emotion (children worldwide). LOGOS = reasoning (statistics + structured argument).
  2. Audience = Nobel committee + global. Which mode lands for that audience?
Misconceptions to watch
  • Treats one mode as automatically best regardless of audience.
  • Confuses pathos with manipulation or ethos with arrogance.
