Answer:
A). By providing a logical explanation of events.
Explanation:
Logos is exemplified as one of the 'three modes of persuasion'(as described by Aristotle), the other two being pathos(appeal to emotion) and ethos(appeal to ethics) that helps to persuade the readers by inflicting their emotions, logic, or ethics'. Logos or 'appeal to logic' is illustrated as the technique of persuasion that convinces the audience through effective reasoning or logic.
In the given excerpt, the author employs logos by proposing 'valid and logical explanation of the events' which is reflected by the quotations that substantiate the author's claim and targets the reasoning faculty of the audience and persuade them to believe in the claim proposed. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
