Why would Swift write such a proposal?
What do believe motivated him to present such an argument?
He wished to invoke pity for the Irish and to create immense dislike for the narrator, who he wrote to be an apathetic member of the upper class. Swift was motivated to present this argument because of the economic troubles and famine the Irish were facing at the time, as well as the lack of support from the British.

Read the excerpt from "Healthy Eating."
But no one can ignore the damage being wrought by all this bad eating. More than one out of three adults in the United States -- 37.5 percent -- are obese, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Some of the leading causes of death -- heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes -- are directly linked to obesity. And childhood obesity has tripled in the last 30 years. With more than a third of kids between 6 and 19 considered obese, the CDC reports, they are at substantially more risk for developing cardiovascular disease, diabetes, bone and joint conditions, and cancer.
The author's argument that a poor diet can be harmful to a person's health is
ineffective, because it lacks clear and reasonable evidence.
ineffective, because it leaves the reader with questions.
effective, because it addresses and refutes a counterclaim.
effective, because it includes facts from a credible source.
Answer:
ineffective, because it lacks clear and reasonable evidence.
Explanation:
The numbered tips at the end of "Healthy Eating" are an important aspect of the author's case because they inspire people to act; however, they are unsuccessful because they leave the reader with questions.

MeccaRamadanBurkaquranmosqueExplanation:
Culture is a broad concept that can be conceived anthropologically and that is understood as a set of knowledge, beliefs, values and habits of a specific people and that identifies it. From the words mentioned in the question, it is possible to identify the culture of which country is being mentioned.
Culture is extremely important for each person, because through the cultural group a person has his / her perception of the world, of his / her moral and ethical values.
Currently we live in a globalized environment, where there is an increasingly strong multiculturalism, with people mixing in an environment looking for new work opportunities and better living conditions, so it is essential that there is respect for the culture of each person, their habits and values, so that there is a peaceful and equal coexistence of all individuals as a society.
Which excerpts from Things Fall Apart provide evidence to support Okonkwo’s contradictory feelings about showing affection when the priestess takes Ezinma to the shrine of the Oracle? Select all that apply. "But the Hills and the Caves were silent as death." "Okonkwo was also feeling tired, and sleepy, for although nobody else knew it, he had not slept at all last night. He had felt anxious but did not show it." "It was only on his fourth trip that he had found Ekwefi, and by then he had become gravely worried." "Okonkwo and his wife followed at a respectful distance."
Answer:
"Okonkwo was also feeling tired, and sleepy, for although nobody else knew it, he had not slept at all last night. He had felt anxious but did not show it."
"It was only on his fourth trip that he had found Ekwefi, and by then he had become gravely worried."
Explanation:
Chinua Achebe's "Things Fall Apart" revolves around the family life of Okonkwo and in general, the life of the Igbo tribe in Africa. The novel deals with themes of family relations, traditions, beliefs, change, social transformation, colonialism, etc.
When Priestess Chielo came to take Ekwefi to the Agbala, the Oracle, Okonkwo at first pleaded to let the child sleep and they will come after that. Despite maintaining himself as a manly, 'emotionless' man in the eyes of everyone, Okonkwo still worries and cares about his family, especially in this case, for his daughter. He had not slept peacefully the previous night and now, he was looking for his wife and the priestess that took his daughter. He followed his wife who had done the same thing, following the priestess despite the curses that Chielo had uttered. Okonkwo came with a machete to replace his wife in waiting at the mouth of the cave, a sure sign of his worried state for his daughter.
Thus, the two pieces of evidence that show how worried Okonkwo was, contrary to his feelings about showing affection, are the second and third options.
"Okonkwo was also feeling tired, and sleepy, for although nobody else knew it, he had not slept at all last night. He had felt anxious but did not show it."
"It was only on his fourth trip that he had found Ekwefi, and by then he had become gravely worried."
(1) In 1751, the Philadelphia Provincial Assembly had a bell made. (2) It was for the new State House. (3) The bell weighed more than 2,000 pounds. (4) The bell was 12 feet in circumference around the bottom. (5) It came to be known as the Liberty Bell because it was inscribed with a motto about liberty. (6) Unfortunately, the Liberty Bell cracked in 1752 during a test ring. (7) To fix the bell, the Philadelphia Assembly had it recast. (8) Some people say the bell cracked again in 1835. (9) It was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral. (10) However, that is probably just a legend. (11) It is a fact that on February 22, 1846, the bell cracked again. (12) That crack could not be fixed. (13) The Liberty Bell has had a crack in it ever since. Which is the most effective way to combine sentences 8 and 9?
A.Some people say the bell cracked again in 1835 while it was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.
B, Cracked again in 1835, some people say while tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.
C. Some people say the bell cracked again in 1835 and was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.
D. Although some people say the bell cracked again in 1835, it was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.
Most people frown about #4. It is a comma splice which means that 2 main clauses hung together by a comma. The better way to do it is with a ; since the two statements are unrelated. In this case it is a very fine point of grammar which is more annoying than wrong.
#1 is wrong because there is no main clause. The bell is the beginning of the main clause.
#2 is passive. It's not wrong, but the writing style could be better.
#3 <<<< answer The and is the proper way to connect 2 predicates.

What is a verb?In a sentence, an action or state of being can be communicated through the use of a word known as a verb. Because it gives the most important details about what is being said or depicted, it is frequently regarded as the most important component of a phrase or clause. When referring to the time at which an action took place, verbs can be expressed in a variety of tenses, including the present, the past, or the future.
In addition, verbs can be classified as transitive or intransitive, based on whether or not the action they describe requires the participation of an object. It's also possible for verbs to be regular or irregular, and this distinction is based on whether or not they follow a typical pattern of inflection. Verbs, in general, are extremely important tools for conveying meaning and constructing sentences that are comprehensible and efficient.

What is a poem ?These are the words and feeling or the expressions expressed in poetry.
A poem's rhyme scheme is the pattern of end rhymes in its lines. It is often represented using letters of the alphabet to indicate which lines rhyme with each other. For example, if a poem has a rhyme scheme of "ABAB," it means that the first and third lines rhyme with each other, and the second and fourth lines rhyme with each other.
There are many different types of rhyme schemes, and they can be used to create different effects in a poem. Some common examples include:
AABB: The first and second lines rhyme with each other, and the third and fourth lines rhyme with each other. This is sometimes called a "couplet" rhyme scheme.
ABAB: The first and third lines rhyme with each other, and the second and fourth lines rhyme with each other. This is sometimes called a "cross" rhyme scheme.
ABBA: The first and fourth lines rhyme with each other, and the second and third lines rhyme with each other. This is sometimes called a "enclosed" rhyme scheme.
AAAA: All four lines rhyme with each other. This is sometimes called a "monorhyme" or "aaaa" rhyme scheme.
Therefore, Rhyme schemes can also be more complex, with multiple sets of rhymes or variations within a single poem.
