The correct answer is A. To get the reader’s attention

Explanation:

In writing, a hook is usually the first element found in a text and can be an interesting statement, a fact, a quotation or a rhetorical question that aims at introducing the topic of the essay and especially at getting the reader's attention, because this is the first element the reader encounters and because fo this it can guarantee the reader continues reading or in the opposite does not decide to read all the test. Additionally, the hook is part of the introductory paragraph that includes the hook, after this the topic of the text, the thesis statement, and purpose of it. Considering this, it can be concluded the purpose of a hook is to get the reader's attention.
