Answer:

C. It is difficult to seek treatment for depression, as it is viewed as a glorified form of sadness rather than a serious mental illness.

Explanation:

In his speech, Andrew Solomon narrated his ordeal with depression. This disease is one suffered by many who do not really recognize its difference with sadness. They see depression as a mood which is normal for all humans, and so they do not believe that it requires treatments. They believe that it is something that can be adapted to.

Andrew Solomon sees it differently. He compared sadness to an iron with little rust which can be overcome by just painting and polishing while he compared depression to an iron which has rusted by over a hundred years and has turned to "a pile of orange dust". So, depression is a serious medical condition that needs urgent attention.

Which opening sentence most strongly engages the reader and provides context?

svp [43]

Of the opening sentences that were presented here that strongly engages the reader and provides context to them would be the second one which is "We could have had a worse weekend, but it's awfully hard to beat Bigfoot and bugs."

The first and third one were just not good enough because it exposes the rest of the context to the reader and lets them have the idea of what you are talking about which usually leads to the readers not choosing to continue to read, thus taking out the reader's engagement but still provides context. The last one is better than the first and third, but it spilled the beans when it mentioned the particulars as to what made the weekend bad to worse. The answer is just right. It has the impact that would hook the reader to know more about your weekend and why is Bigfoot and bugs together in your statement. The rain wasn't mentioned which would be ideal to make the story telling take a turn to much worse which would spike up the interest of the reader.
