The phrase which most helps the reader conclude that the author's purpose is to persuade is:

Option D

  • Nothing is simpler.

In this selection, the author is clearly trying to persuade the audience. We know this because of his utilization of the phrase "nothing easier."

By highlighting the effortlessness of his argument, he trusts that the audience would be persuaded to consider the argument to be a basic one as well, and hence, be convinced of his position.

The sentence that best paraphrases the passage is Swift says that it is common to see devastated individuals in the roads of Ireland.

In A Modest Proposal, Jonathan Swift expounds on how Ireland is suffering for being under British rule, about how ruined couples have inconvenience feeding their kids.

Moms have to ask on the roads carrying their kids with them. It is also common to see kids begging in the city. To avoid this, Swift proposes in a satirical way that ladies should offer their kids to rich english landowners.
