The correct answer is D. To persuade

Explanation:

In writing, common purposes in texts include to inform, to entertain and to narrate that mainly depends on the objective and author has with a text and the information included on it. In the case of texts whose purpose is to persuade, these texts aim at convincing the reader to believe or support a certain idea or take a certain action that is suggested by the author and usually supported with reasons. This is the case of the passage presented as the author of it "If you are looking for a pet, you should consider getting a Guinea pig" that suggests the main purpose of the author is to convince readers to get a Guinea pig and not other pet, also the author provides details such as "clean and easy to care for" that give reader reasons to support the idea of the author. Therefore, the passage is a clear example of a text used with the objective of persuading.

Read the stanza.
Grace [21]

Answer:

He is sold to his employer by is father.

Explanation:

William Blake's poem <em>"The Chimney Sweeper"</em> from his <em><u>"Songs of Innocence,"</u></em> tells the story of how a small boy was forced into employment as child labor which was a common practice in England of that time. This poem is a generalization of the prominent case of child labor through which some families get their incomes.

Narrated from the small boy's perspective, the first stanza reads

<em>When my mother died I was very young, </em>

<em>And my father sold me while yet my tongue </em>

<em>Could scarcely cry " 'weep! 'weep! 'weep! 'weep!" </em>

<em>So your chimneys I sweep & in soot I sleep</em>

It is clearly evident to see that the young boy's employment came at the death of his mother. <u>His father sold him to be a chimney sweeper</u> even before he could barely talk or speak.
