The passage given above clearly uses the rhetorical device which is ETHOS. Ethos is one of the appeals of logic. The main aim of the appeals of logic is to persuade the readers or audience. Ethos is a Greek word which means "character"; therefore, using Ethos as a rhetorical device means persuading or convincing others using the character of the persuader. The answer for this is option B.
