Answer :

In the context of a text with an agenda, the best example would be:

D. A website that gives users a 100-question personality test, but holds back the results until users submit their phone number and email address.

Explanation:
1. This option clearly demonstrates a text with an agenda because it aims to gather personal information (phone number and email address) from users in exchange for providing the test results.
2. The agenda here is to collect users' contact details for potential marketing purposes or data collection rather than solely focusing on delivering the personality test.
3. The condition of withholding results until users submit personal information highlights a clear underlying motive or agenda behind the text, which is not transparent or straightforward.
