Question

Which sentence in this adapted excerpt from Mohandas Gandhi’s “Banaras Hindu University Speech” is an example of the use of ethos as a persuasive device?

I was present at the sessions of the great Congress in the month of December. There was a much vaster audience. Would you believe me when I tell you that the only speeches that touched the huge audience in Bombay were the speeches that were delivered in Hindustani? In Bombay, mind you, not in Banaras where everybody speaks Hindi. But between the vernaculars of the Bombay Presidency on the one hand and Hindi on the other, no such great dividing line exists as there does between English and the sister language of India; and the Congress audience was better able to follow the speakers in Hindi. I am hoping that this University will see to it that the youths who come to it will receive their instruction through the medium of their vernaculars.
