Explanation:

Inflammatory language is a kind of language often used by the politicians and speakers. It includes statements which are used to trigger an emotional response (anger, excitement, etc.) in the audience. This kind of language is also intended to make people take certain action. The most obvious example of inflammatory language is option C, where the speaker directly accuses the mayor of accepting bribes.
