Answer:

The best speeches are full of logos and have very little ethos or pathos is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ethos, pathos, and logos are the elements of rhetoric and they are related even though they have different concepts: ethos is the speakers credibility, while pathos is an appeal to emotion; logos refers to an appeal to logic. So, for a speech, just the logic things wouldn't be enough to keep the audience's attention, so it is necessary to mix it with the other two elements. Due to this, the correct answer is letter B.
