"<u>To be or not to be</u>", is a parallel structure, that is, when we are using the same pattern of words, to show that those words or ideas bear the same importance.
"<u>Despised love</u>", is an oxymoron, which is a kind of speech containing words that seem to contradict each other.
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.
