The answer is:

B) It makes readers more comfortable with the idea of reading the essay if they can view it as if it were their own words.

The author tries to convince the reader that this philosiphy can be made their own if the coat fits... searching for the reader to think that he shares this kind of thought and it will be easier for the reader to adopt that way of thinking.
