Correct Answer: rhetoric


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

Rhetoric refers to the use of language to persuade or influence others, often with an emphasis on style and expression. In the context of the sentence, it implies that if the political rhetoric (communication or discourse used in politics) is not stopped, it may lead to a civil war.

The meanings of other options are as follows:

  • Anaphoric refers to a word or phrase that refers to and depends on a preceding word or group of words.

  • Aleatoric refers to music or other forms of art involving elements of randomness or chance.

  • Historic refers to history or historical events.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: "If someone does not stop the political rhetoric in that country, a civil war is likely to break out soon."
