The correct answer is D. Spend as much time developing the mind as developing the body.

Explanation:

The purpose of the author in a text is the main goal the author wants to achieve with the audience, common general purposes include to inform, to entertain, to persuade or to explain. Additionally, the author general purpose is usually linked to some idea or topic developed during the text. In the case of  the text presented the author first explains several actions people do to look after their body and after this the author questions this previous practices by using a rhetorical question that mainly ask the audience why they do all these actions for their bodies but not for the minds, which means the author is questioning the amount of time spent in developing the body and the little time in developing the mind and at the same time the author invites the audience to start spending time to develop and look after their minds.

This means the author main purpose is to convince the audience to " Spend as much time developing the mind as developing the body" as the author emphasizes in the time and actions people do for their body and the need to do as many actions for developing one's mind, also the author's words are a direct invitation to the audience to take action and look after their minds and not only their bodies, which mains the main goal is to persuade and this purpose is linked to the idea of developing the mind.

den301095 [7]

The author uses the parenthetical clause in the passage to assert that hope is important regardless of whether it comes to fruition.

<h3>What is a parenthetical clause?</h3>

A parenthetical is a short sentence that is not essential to the rest of the sentence but does not mean that it is not important to the sentence.

The clause of parenthetical are separated from the rest of a sentence but adds an extra information without changing the meaning of a sentence.

Therefore, the Option B is correct.

Missing options <em>"A. convince the audience that the pursuit of happiness is futile B. assert that hope is important regardless of whether it comes to fruition C. discourage the audience from indulging in unreasonable expectations D. highlight the positive and negative aspects of hope E. imply that the value of hope depends on its close connection with delusion</em>

The Renaissance was a period of tremendous achievements in the fields of art, politics, literature, and philosophy. It was a tim
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Women's lives did not improve at all if anything they were worsened. Rich woman during the renaissance had very little say in anything and was taught to help their husband run a business and take care of him and the house. The poor woman had no say in anything they only had to choices at life, they could either be a housewife and take care of the kids and the house ore they had to become a nun. The poor woman could not be single or have any rights.

The role of women was very scarce. Women were supposed to be seen and not heard. Rarely seen at that. Women were to be prim and proper, the ideal women. Females were able to speak their minds but their thoughts and ideas were shaped by men. Mostly everything women did had input given by men. Women were controlled by her parents from the day she is born until the day she is married, then she would be handed directly to her husband so he could take over that role. In the time of the renaissance, women were considered to legally belong to their husbands. Women were supposed to be typical ‘housewives.'

Though women were inferior to men, women in different classes had different roles. Low-class women were expected to be housewives and take care of everything to do with the house. The expectation of working-class women was a little bit different. These women were expected to work for their husbands and help them run their business. They would work alongside their husbands and then go home and take care of the household. Upper-class women may have had servants and workers working for them but the women were still expected to take care of the household.

Women could not work by themselves. Neither could they live alone if they were not married. If a woman was single, she was made to move in with one of her male relatives or join a convent and become a nun. There was no other option at this time for women.

In conclusion in different classes of women, the only women that were allowed to express themselves were upper-class women, but not sufficiently. The existence of women was there but it was a marginal existence. Very rarely would a woman of less than upper class be seen or heard expressing herself. It was unheard of. When women did express themselves, what they would express was tainted by male influence.
