This question is incomplete. I was able to find the complete question online. It is the following:

Read the excerpt from Ronald Reagan's "Tear Down This Wall" speech.

I understand the fear of war and the pain of division that afflict this continent-and I pledge to you my country's efforts to help overcome these burdens. To be sure, we in the West must resist Soviet expansion. So we must maintain defenses of unassailable strength. Yet we see peace; so we must strive to reduce arms on both sides.

Which statement best describes the impact of rhetorical techniques in this excerpt?

A. The use of loaded language creates the need for immediate action in Europe.

B. The use of repetition reminds the audience of the obstacles they must defeat.

C. The use of inclusive language emphasizes hope for a better relationship in the future.

D. The use of exclusive language shows the contrast between the two countries.

The statement which best describes the impact of rhetorical techniques in the excerpt is:

C. The use of inclusive language emphasizes hope for a better relationship in the future.

Explanation:

Ronald Reagan (1911-2004) was the 40th president of the United States. "Tear Down This Wall" is a speech Reagan gave in West Berlin in 1987. The wall he refers to is the Berlin Wall, built with the purpose of dividing Berlin into two sides: one capitalist, the other socialist.

In the particular excerpt we are analyzing here, Reagan is using inclusive language. That is especially evident when he uses the subject "we". "We" is basically the same as "you and I", which means the president was including the West Berlin when he spoke of the actions that must be taken. It is not "we the United States", it is "we, our countries" working together to bring peace and resist Soviet expansion. With that in mind, we can choose letter C as the best option:

The use of inclusive language emphasizes hope for a better relationship in the future.

Read this excerpt from white fang by jack london. the qualities in his kind that in the beginning made it possible for them to come in to the fires of men, were qualities capable of development. they were developing in him, and the camp-life, replete with misery as it was, was secretly endearing itself to him all the time. but white fang was unaware of it. he knew only grief for the loss of kiche, hope for her return, and a hungry yearning for the free life that had been his. which quotation from the paragraph supports the story’s theme of homesickness? “the camp life . . was secretly endearing itself to him all the time.” “but white fang was unaware of it.” “he knew only . . a hungry yearning for the free life that had been his.” “the qualities in his kind . . were qualities capable of development.”
