Explanation:
Machiavelli uses words like "because" to persuade by using a "cause and effect" structure. The quote, "there are three courses for those who wish to hold them" indicates the second answer. The passage lacks humor and suspense, so the only right answer is "to inform the reader" for the third question. He provides explanations in his "cause and effect" structure and explains why things happen.
