Hello. You forgot to warn that this question is about the "Invisible Man" prologue.

Answer:

The text shows details that prove that the narrator exists without being perceived by anyone around him, so he starts to push people to prove that he exists. These details help to convey the message that not being noticed is lonely and that it makes a person doubt his own ability and relevance in the world.

Explanation:

The narrator is an invisible man. This causes everyone in the world to ignore you. His existence is irrelevant to the universe and all people follow their lives as if he does not exist and he is not noticed by anyone, this makes everyone bump into him all the time.

This makes the speaker live an extremely lonely life and makes him start to doubt his own existence and to prove that he really exists he starts to push people back.

The main message of the text is to show how human beings need attention, to validate them, to show that they are relevant. When that attention is withdrawn, human beings can respond with hostility as a way to resolve their internal doubts.

The phrase which most helps the reader conclude that the author's purpose is to persuade is:

Option D

  • Nothing is simpler.

In this selection, the author is clearly trying to persuade the audience. We know this because of his utilization of the phrase "nothing easier."

By highlighting the effortlessness of his argument, he trusts that the audience would be persuaded to consider the argument to be a basic one as well, and hence, be convinced of his position.

The sentence that best paraphrases the passage is Swift says that it is common to see devastated individuals in the roads of Ireland.

In A Modest Proposal, Jonathan Swift expounds on how Ireland is suffering for being under British rule, about how ruined couples have inconvenience feeding their kids.

Moms have to ask on the roads carrying their kids with them. It is also common to see kids begging in the city. To avoid this, Swift proposes in a satirical way that ladies should offer their kids to rich english landowners.
