The correct answer is A. To encourage readers to recognize and embrace diversity
Explanation:
In essays and other texts, the purpose is the main reason or motivation for the author to write a text. This purpose is usually expressed through main ideas and sub-ideas during all the text.
In the case of Mora's essay the purpose is "to encourage readers to recognize and embrace diversity" this is because form the beginning Mora refers to diversity, this can be seen in "One-third of this nation now traces its heritage to regions other than Western Europe", which shows the importance of diversity. Also, this idea is supported when the author invites readers to embrace this diversity by stating "I urged... all of us to ponder the strength of the mountains around us" considering the "mountains" represent the diversity and heritage.
Having a good attitude is truly helpful when going through difficult moments. I want to provide an example about someone who has been important in my life:
My grandpa suffered a stroke at his 70 and his face ended up partially paralyzed. He was positive and confident that he would recover from this and that he would be able to have full control over his face muscles. He started some kind of physical therapy and with his determination and proper attitude, he was finally able to make gestures with his face in two months (without a single trace of facial paralysis).
