Answer:

B. Passage 1 appeals to ethics by drawing on the speaker's work experience, while passage 2 appeals to emotion by using strong wording.

Step-by-step explanation:

The above is the statement that best compares the ways that the two arguments use appeals.

In passage 1, we discover that it appeals to ethics by drawing on the work experience of the speaker. The teacher uses her work experience to make the reader know the credibility of her claim. In ethical appeal, the speaker tends to convince the audience on his/her credibility in order to show that he he/she is worth listening to on the matter.

In passage 2, we see that the strong wording used by the speaker appeals to emotion. The speaker uses words like "gossip", "lazier", "pointless", "meaningless", "good-for-nothings" to appeal to the emotion of the audience. This appeal to emotion is known as pathos. It is used by speakers/authors to invoke the emotion of their audience.
