The correct argument is A;

To build ethos by showing he understands the other side.

By showing that he understood the opposing argument, Thomas Paine demonstrated his great understanding of America under British rule. This allowed him to gain credibility, since he is well-versed and knowledgeable in many areas, not just when it comes to supporting his own argument.
