Read the paragraph. I have been a nurse for twenty years. In that time, I have seen a great number of patients suffer because they did not have health insurance. For example, I once saw a person who broke their hand in an accident. Because they could not afford treatment, they delayed coming to the hospital and developed a serious infection. By the time I saw them for the first time, the infection could be treated but there was a high risk of permanent disability. This sort of thing should not happen to anyone. A strong universal health care system could prevent instances like this from occurring. Which rhetorical appeal is used in the text, “I have been a nurse for over twenty years”? logos, an appeal based on logic ethos, an appeal based on the author’s character pathos, an appeal based on emotion no rhetorical appeal is used
