Read this passage from "The American Dream."

One of the first things we notice in this dream is an amazing universalism. It does not say some men, but it says all men. It does not say all white men, but it says all men, which includes black men. It does not say all Gentiles, but it says all men, which includes Jews. It does not say all Protestants, but it says all men, which includes Catholics.

Which is the most likely reason that the speaker repeats the word “men” in the passage?

“Men” functions as a keyword that helps create a rhythm.
“Men” emphasizes the subject the speaker is interested in discussing.
“Men” functions as a key point in the speaker’s logical argument.
“Men” emphasizes the differences the speaker wants to show.
