The Case Against Helping the Poor" is D. trying to scare the audience with the lifeboat scenario.
Pathos has to do with appeal to emotions, so that is the only option where emotions are even remotely mentioned. The other options are just facts.

Answer: D) the author provides the population rates of the United States and several other countries.

The author in this text uses logos by providing the population rates of the United States and several other countries. Logos refers to an appeal that is based on arguments and logic, and which is backed up by evidence. In this case, the last statement is the only one that is supported by evidence. The other statements provide either opinions or appeals to authority.
