D. He uses pathos to appeal to Russian's sense of pride and survival. (Apex)

Catalina Pittman · Answer 2

The correct answer would be A)

We know it isn't C or D because pathos means to invoke pity or sadness, which is not what he is doing.

And in B it says he uses their cultural past, which isn't used which leaves A) as the correct answer.
