Select the correct text in the passage. Which excerpt from paragraph 5 contains an example of the author using pathos to convey his point of view?
(5) Certainly there were passionate voices on both sides of the issue, focusing the nation's attention on this remote mountain valley. Local
newspapers called the bill's opponents "a crowd of nature lovers and fakers, who are waging a sentimental campaign to preserve the Hetch
Hetchy Valley as a public playground, a purpose for which it has never been used." Gifford Pinchot, the former Chief Forester of the US Forest
Service, testified before Congress that the creation of a reservoir in the valley was "the greatest good for the greatest number" in reference to
not only the water use but the increased accessibility that the development would certainly provide. John Muir, who led the opposition, wrote
beautifully about the valley, calling it "one of Nature's rarest and most precious mountain temples." He appealed to the nation, asking what
else might be at stake if we allowed the creation of a "water tank" in this national park.
