Answer:
The author's purpose suggested by the text is:
C. to inform readers about an infectious disease called mononucleosis.
Explanation:
Let's summarize the passage by dividing it into topics:
- there is a disease called mononucleosis;
- the virus that causes it is the Epstein-Barr;
- it spreads through saliva;
- the symptoms include fatigue, fever, sore throat, etc.;
- a blood test can confirm the disease;
- the symptoms last a few weeks.
As we can see, the passage gives us some general knowledge about the disease. It does not focus on how the virus was discovered at all. Even though it mentions the symptoms of mono, it is incorrect to say that the passage's purpose is to describe how it feels to have the disease. That is not its focus, it is just one of the many topics it discusses. Therefore, the best option is letter C:
C. to inform readers about an infectious disease called mononucleosis.

Explanation:
The sentences have possessive adjectives. In other words, they are pronouns followed by a noun. When we want to add a person's name in the sentence, we have to replace the possessive adjective with the name in brackets. Then we and add the 's, which is the genitive case.
For example, in the sentence These are her keys (Susan), the possessive adjective is her, and the noun that follows is keys, so we write Susan's instead of her. These are Susan's keys.
The possessive case and the genitive case both show possession. Another way to show possession is by writing the word of. To do so, we first identify the possessive pronoun and the noun. Then we change the possessive pronoun by the and, then we write of and the person. For example, In Its dinner is here, it becomes the dinner of the dog is here.

It is long since I wrote to you, because I know you must be where you could not receive my letters: and perhaps it may be some time before I write to you again, on account of a contagious and mortal fever which has arisen here, and is driving us all away. It is called a yellow fever, but is like nothing known or read of by the physicians. . . . All persons who can find asylum elsewhere, are flying from the city: this will doubtless extend it to other towns, and spread it through the country, unless an early winter should stop it.

The Tinker's Willow
Edward W. Frentz
One day, when my Grandfather Gifford was about seven years old, he looked across the road to his father's blacksmith shop, and seeing someone sitting on the bench by the door, went over to learn who it was.
He found a little old man, with thick, bushy eyebrows and bright blue eyes. His clothes were made all of leather, which creaked and rattled when he moved. By his side was a partly open pack, in which grandfather could see curious tools and sheets of shiny tin. By that he knew that the man was the traveling tinker, who came once or twice a year to mend leaky pans and pails, and of whom he had heard his mother speak.
The old man was eating his luncheon - a slice or two of bread, a bit of cold meat, and a cold potato; and because it seemed so poor a luncheon, grandfather went back to the house and brought two big apples from the cellar. The old man thanked him and ate the apples. Then he got up, brushed the bread crumbs from his leather breeches, and taking a little tin dipper from his pack, went down to the brook for a drink of water. When he had had his fill, he came back to the bench and sat down.
Which of the following describes the characters in this excerpt?
a young boy and his father the blacksmith

Public forum.
