Answer 2

A. The article is written to convince others to agree with the author.

C. The author uses emotional language to support a claim.

D. The author includes a persuasive conclusion at the end of the article.

Step-by-step explanation:

An editorial is an article where the author gives their opinion on an issue, with intent to persuade. Or in other words, to convince others to agree with the author. Emotional language is a type of persuading technique, and most likely contains bias. Editorials will more often than not use emotional language. The author, when including a conclusion in their editorial, is basically calling for action to the reader.
