Which excerpt from Silent Spring best appeals to readers' pathos? So it had been from the days many years ago when the first settlers raised their houses, sank their wells, and built their
bams
The town lay in the midst of a checkerboard of prosperous farms with fields of grain and hillsides of orchards where, in
spring, white clouds of bloom drifted above the green fields. In autumn, oak and maple and birch set up a blaze of color
that flamed and flickered across a backdrop of pines
The countryside was, in fact, famous for the abundance and variety of its bird life, and when the flood of migrants was
pouring through in spring and fall people traveled from great distances to observe them
Yet every one of these disasters has actually happened somewhere, and many real communities have already suffered a
substantial number of them. A grim specter has crept upon us almost unnoticed and this imagined tragedy may easily

- Yet every one of these disasters has actually happened somewhere, and many real communities have already suffered a  substantial number of them. A grim specter has crept upon us almost unnoticed and this imagined tragedy may easily  become a stark reality we all shall know.

Explanation:

Pathos is elucidated as one of the three persuasive devices(as stated by Aristotle, the other two being ethos and logos) in which the author emotionally appeals to the audience in order to persuade them and gain their acceptance.

The last excerpt i.e. 'Yet..shall know' from Silent Spring most aptly appeals to the readers' pathos as it discusses a 'disaster' and descriptive words like 'suffered', 'grim', 'unnoticed', 'tragedy', 'stark reality', etc. to describe it which arouses the feelings of pity and sympathy of the audience which assists the author in persuading them to believe in his claim.
