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.

Remember

By Christina Rossetti

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
