In this excerpt from "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift, which important issue does the writer deal with using a satirical tone?
Some persons of a desponding spirit are in great concern about that vast number of poor people, who are aged, diseased, or maimed:
and I have been desired to employ my thoughts what course may be taken, to ease the nation of so grievous an incumbrance. But I am
not in the least pain upon that matter, because it is very well known, that they are every day dying, and rotting, by cold and famine, and
filth, and vermin, as fast as can be reasonably expected. And as to the young labourers, they are now in almost as hopeful a condition.
They cannot get work, and consequently pine away from want of nourishment, to a degree, that if at any time they are accidentally hired
to common labour, they have not strength to perform it, and thus the country and themselves are happily delivered from the evils to
come
A.
Old, sickly people cannot be hired as laborers because they don't have the physical stamina required for the job.
B.
Old, sickly people and young laborers are useless to the nation because they cannot be productive citizens.
C.
The economy of the nation is burdened by the poor, the old, and the sickly who survive on charity and handouts.
The living conditions of the poor and their lack of employment opportunities are serious concerns for the nation.
D.
the living conditions of the poor and their lack of employment opportunities are serious concerns for the nation
Answer:
The correct answer is option B. Old, sickly people and young laborers are useless to the nation because they cannot be productive citizens.
Explanation:
In this excerpt we can see how the author addresses the issue of how old and sick people cannot get a job and not only that, they starve and die of cold.
The author also ironically remarks how young workers "are now in almost as hopeful a condition." and talks about how they can't get a job either.
Exactly the use of this irony is what is considered as "satirical tone".
Given this information we can say that the correct answer is option B.
How is Old Major characterized in this passage?
O He is content with the animals' current situation on
the farm.
Is it not crystal clear, then, comrades, that all the evils of
this life of ours spring from the tyranny of human beings?
Only get rid of Man, and the produce of our labour would
be our own. Almost overnight we could become rich and
free. What then must we do? Why, work night and day,
body and soul, for the overthrow of the human race! That
is my message to you, comrades: Rebellion!
-Animal Farm,
George Orwell
O He believes that the animals should move away
and find a new farm to work on.
O He desires more for the animals and thinks that they
should be equal to humans.
O He believes that the animals should reject wealth
and the material goods of humans.
Answer:
The correct answer is He desires more for the animals and thinks that they should be equal to humans.
Explanation:
Old Major is a pig who is in charge of leading this proposed rebellion. As the passage shows, he believes that humans are the threat, and animals should be treated with equal importance.
For Old Major it would be best to get rid of the humans who are the tyrants in this story.
Given this information, we can say that the correct answer is the option He desires more for the animals and thinks that they should be equal to humans.

Explanation:
Read the excerpt from "The Rosetta Stone.” Then chance stepped in. In 1798, Napoleon went to Egypt to protect its trade interests. In addition to an army, he brought along Egyptian scholars who were charged with copying the inscriptions and studying the architecture. The following year, the French bolstered their defenses by rebuilding a fort in the town of Rosetta. In the midst of the fortification, the Rosetta Stone was discovered. Ironically, this large stone tablet was found not by one of the scholars but by a soldier. Luckily, he recognized that the inscriptions must have value. Militarily, Napoleon's Egyptian campaign was a disaster—the British decimated the French navy—but historically, it was of long-lasting importance. Which best describes the primary structure of this excerpt? problem and solution chronological order list form comparison and contrast
The correct answer is B. Chronological order
Explanation:
The excerpt focuses on explaining the events related to the discovery of the Rosetta stone. Additionally, in the text, the author organizes events according to time or in chronological order, from the oldest to the most recent event. This can be seen in "In 1798, Napoleon went to Egypt" and "The following year, the French bolstered their defenses". Moreover, the chronological structure is supported through expressions such as in 1798 or the following year that show time and the way events occurred in it.

The answer would be B.

Read the excerpt below from Only Yesterday, An Informal History of the 1920's, Chapter 3 "The Big Red Scare" section 6 and answer the question. If a white girl reported that a colored man had made improper advances to her – even if the charge were unsupported and based on nothing more than a neurotic imagination – a white-sheeted band might spirit the Negro off to the woods and "teach him a lesson" with tar and feathers or with the whip. If a white man stood up for a Negro in a race quarrel, he might be kidnapped and beaten up. If a colored woman refused to sell her land at an arbitrary price which she considered too low, and a Klansman wanted the land, she might receive the K.K.K. ultimatum – sell or be thrown out. Klan members would boycott Jewish merchants, refuse to hire Catholic boys, refuse to rent their houses to Catholics.

In The Wizard of Oz, characters like Glinda the Good Witch represent the mother archetype because she looks out for Dorothy, and Toto represent the trickster, because he is always creating problems. ... Toto also causes the Cowardly Lion to growl at him, causing Dorothy to hit the Lion on the nose.
Glenda the good witch - represents the mother because she helps to take care of D and to keep her safe and on the right path.
Toto - he is the tricky one and always creating problems for D.
Lion - He is a coward - really? He just has no self - esteem. Not only is D able to instill in him that he is not a coward, but that she is not a coward either. By encouraging him, she is really encouraging herself.
Tin Man - He has so much love to give, but does not have a heart. He helps D realize that treating others with kindness and being good and helping others - as D does frequently - is all about having a big heart full of love.
Scarecrow - No brain. But he comes to realize with D's help that he is smart and that he has potential to be whatever he wants to be - even if it is to scare crows away from the fields he protects.

Hope this helps a little.....
Answer:
In the beginning of the story, Dorothy is unhappy with her life and wishes to be somewhere else. She thinks that if she could find a new place to live, all her problems would be solved. Page 96 in the text says, “Dorothy had thought of running away from home because she felt she did not really fit in on the farm. She knew Auntie Em loved her, but she still felt like a stranger out here in the countryside, and longed to be someplace that had no real problems, someplace ‘over the rainbow’ where the sky was always blue. She thought she could solve her loneliness by going to a different place.” But that all changes once a tornado hits the farm and sends her into The Land Of Oz. On her journey, she meets three of her current friends, Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Lion...
1.) Scarecrow was the first one Dorothy had met, which was in a cornfield with Scarecrow stuck on a wooden pole. When listening to Scarecrow, "My life has been so short that I really know nothing whatever," he tells Dorothy. "I was only made day before yesterday. What happened in the world before that time is unknown to me" (4.12). He came into existence when a farmer painted on his eyes, ears, and mouth. Thing was, his first day out on the cornfield didn't go well in the slightest. A crow made fun of him for not having any brains, and Scarecrow took it very very personally.
2.) Tin Man was the second character that Dorothy came in contact who went with her to the Wizard of Oz. When listening to the Tin Man, she heard his quite disturbing backstory. He was once a human who had an axe, but it was cursed by an evil witch. That caused him to chop off all of his own limbs, one by one. A metal worker who loves nearby was able to rebuild him out of tin, but the whole experience left him so angry and dissatisfied, he lost the love of his life and has been in the woods ever since the tragedy. To make matters worse, a year before Dorothy and the Scarecrow found him in the woods, he got caught in a rainstorm and rusted into place, unable to move due to all the rust on his joints. During that long and painful year, he had a lot of time to think on love and loss, and now the Tin Woodman wants, (or as he says, needs) a heart. He's tired of not being able to show emotions (not true!) and loosing his loved ones. He wants to love again.
3.) Lion was the last companion Dorothy had come across, and he made a bad first impression of biting Scarecrow! "You are nothing but a big coward," she tells him. "I know it," says the lion. "I've always known it. But how can I help it" (6.11-6.12). "Being a coward is my great sorrow, and makes my life very unhappy," he tells Dorothy. "But whenever there is danger my heart begins to beat fast" (6.26). As a male lion, he is supposed to show dominance and be brave, and be the king of the forest, but to him he believes he is more of a fraud than a ruler. "I am terribly afraid of falling, myself," he tells them. (but then continues to jump the large ditch with his three friends on his back)"
When she comes into account with the Wicked Witch, Dorothy is frightened and wishes her friends from the farm were there to help her. After experienceing that, she started to reconsider how "great" home was, and makes her reconsider that maybe her life wasn't all that bad after all. Dorothy's ultimate. statement is when she says "There is no place like home; There is no place like home" (p. 320). Once Dorothy returned home, her attitude was different and she now appreciated the farm and her Aunt and Uncle so much more, after realizing that her life wasn't the bad she thought it to be.
After arriving in the Land of Oz, meeting everyone, listening to her three friends, helping others, having others help her, all of those things changed her perspective on things that were going on around her and at home! Especially meeting Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion, and going up against the Wicked Witch! Everything in the movie/book changed the way she thought and saw alot of things, especially with her farm. Dorothy wanted to run away, but after meeting everyone in Oz, those thoughts were gone and everything changed for the better, and made her realize that her life is not all that bad!
(((I am TERRIBLY sorry it took so long! i was trying to find evidence and do my work at the same time! i really wanted to help you haha)))
What moral lesson can be drawn from The Shivering Tree? How is the story a cautionary tale?
Answer:
Explanation:
The main problem of the story is Nanabush's arrogance. he leans his lesson after losing his eyes. aka dont be arrogant
Even that would be sufficient. The story's fundamental issue is primarily caused by Nanabush's conceit. Nanabush discovered his lesson soon after the circumstances that led to the loss of his eyes. He was so conceited that he had to learn a lesson.
Who is Nanabush In this story the shivering tree?An old wise man named Nanabush was out strolling one Autumn day when he stopped to rest by a river and met a sorcerer by the name of The Juggler. Because he had previously seen The Juggler in the woods, Nanabush didn't trust him, but as he grew to respect his abilities, he did.
A story's moral is the lesson it imparts about how to conduct oneself in society. The moral is derived from the Latin word for habit, mores. A story's lesson is meant to help you become a better person. When moral is used as an adjective, good or ethical is meant.

Do you think Imagism has had an effect on poetry as we know it today?
Answer:
Imagism was born in England and America in the early twentieth century. A reactionary movement against romanticism and Victorian poetry, imagism emphasized simplicity, clarity of expression, and precision through the use of exacting visual images.
Though Ezra Pound is noted as the founder of imagism, the movement was rooted in ideas first developed by English philosopher and poet T. E. Hulme, who, as early as 1908, spoke of poetry based on an absolutely accurate presentation of its subject, with no excess verbiage. In his essay “Romanticism and Classicism,” Hulme wrote that the language of poetry is a “visual concrete one….Images in verse are not mere decoration, but the very essence.”

Read the two versions of the beginning of Yasmin’s narrative. Version 1: I took a long, lingering look at the tremendous beauty that surrounded me. Nature abounded as far as the eye could see, and the only sounds to be heard were the peaceful murmurs of that which existed in the wilderness. As I sat there, my tent and sleeping bag the only signs of civilization for miles, my heart swelled with relief that I had decided to take this weekend camping trip. I could feel every muscle in my body gradually relaxing with every sight, every sound, every smell within this untouched slice of tranquility. It was hard to believe that anything could disrupt the serenity of this place . . . but I could not have been more wrong. Version 2: Exhausted, I took one last look around me. I had been camping for only two short days, but I could not wait to get home and recount the adventures of my short stay in peace and tranquility.

Read the excerpt from "Code Talkers.” In World War I and World War II, American Indian soldiers played a critical role in the US military effort by using their native languages as the basis for creating successful codes. The most famous of these soldiers were a group of four hundred men known as the Navajo code talkers. These innovative and courageous soldiers developed for the United States Marine Corps a virtually unbreakable military code, which proved highly valuable against the Japanese during the Second World War. Which words and phrases from this excerpt help create a tone of admiration? Select 3 options. highly valuable developed native languages courageous critical role military code
Answer:
Highly valuable,
courageous,
critical role.
Explanation:
Code talkers are those employed by the military to help in sending and receiving secret coded messages so as not to allow the enemies to catch hold of the relayed messages between military parties. The book details how the Navajo Indians became a huge part of this code-talking community and helped greatly in the secret coding of messages.
As given in the passage, we can see that the Navajo Indians or "Navajo code talkers" were a famous group. The use of their native language in developing "a virtually unbreakable military code" helped in their successful relaying of messages across different places. The use of the phrase "highly valuable" shows how these native Americans are important for military work. Also, "courageous" and "critical role" emphasized the level of importance and bravery these code talkers constitute in the war.
Thus, the correct phrases are "highly valuable", "courageous" and "critical role".
A code talker was a member of the military who was assigned to use a little-known language as a means of secret communication during wartime.
Highly valuable, Courageous and critical role.
Code talkers are military personnel that assist in the transmission and reception of secret coded signals in order to prevent enemy from intercepting messages passed between military parties.
The book describes how the Navajo Indians became an integral member of this code-talking civilization and contributed significantly to secret message coding. The Navajo Indians, often known as "Navajo code talkers" were a well-known group, as stated in the paragraph.
Their successful relaying of signals across numerous locations was aided by their use of their own language in constructing "a virtually impregnable military code." The phrase "very valued" is used to emphasis how crucial these aboriginal Americans are too military operations.
