Abby is giving a speech to persuade her audience that animal testing is wrong. she tells a story about the pain and torment that an animal went through during the testing of a perfume. which component of aristotle’s classical model of persuasion is she using?

She is using pathos.

Explanation:

According to Aristotle's classical model of persuasion, there are three appeals that can be used to persuade an audience: logos, ethos, and pathos.

Logos is appeal to logic, ethos to ethics, pathos to emotions. Pathos usually focuses on sad emotions, or emotions related to pity, in order to persuade. That is precisely what Abby is doing when she tells the story of the pain and torment an animal went through. She is appealing to the audience's capacity for empathy, for feeling the animal's pain, for feeling sorry for the animal. She expects their emotions will persuade them to stop animal testing.

dramatic irony occurs when the reader/audience knows more about a character's situation than the character does. the one main effect is that it gives the reader a sense of superiority, or detached superiority. the reader not only seemingly discovers what is revealed, but feels superior for doing so.
