- Letter A serves as ethos. Ethos depends on the writer's credibility to convince readers of his point of view.
- Letter B serves as pathos. An account of a tornado sweeping a small town will have readers empathize. It will address shared emotions and cultural values that allow everyone to relate to what happened.
- Letters C and D serve as logos. To logically convince readers of something, presenting studies and statistics is a must. It gives the argument the support and structure to convince readers that the writer's conclusion is the logical one.
