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.

What is Identity? What words or indicators would you use to tell someone who you are?
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Identity is a set of characteristics of a person or a group that allow them to be distinguished from the rest.

Explanation:

Identity is essential to evaluate who we are, how we feel, how we act and what vision we have of life.

When we allow emotions, circumstances, or other external influences, such as the concept of others, culture, the media, to guide and condition us to a way of life, we lose our own identity and adopt another that do not corresponds to us.

The recognition of who we are makes a difference, allowing us to be individual and unique beings, establishing our identity on real and true foundations.

To tell someone who I am, I would talk about my peculiarities, my beliefs, what I feel, what I think, my gender and how I identify with it, as well as my fears and insecurities.
