Answer:

B) interviewing the parents of a child who has died of cancer

Step-by-step explanation:

Pathos is the greek word used to make reference to the use of emotions and appeal to the feelings of the audience in order to convince them of doing something, so from the options the only one that would use pathos, or an appeal to the emotions and feelings of the audience to cause a response, would be an interview with parents of a child that died of cancer.
