'A Modest Proposal,' written by Jonathan Swift in 1729, begins by deploring the sad fate of the poverty-stricken Irish who have to spend all their time trying to feed their large families. As a solution to the poverty in which these families are forced to live, by virtue of having so many mouths to feed, Swift suggests that these poor Irish families should fatten up their children and sell them to the rich English land owners.
He argues that children could be sold into a meat market as early as the age of one, giving poor families some much needed income, while sparing them the expenses of raising so many children. With 100,000 Irish children out of the population being set aside for dinner, his solution, he reasons, will also help to resolve the issues of overpopulation and unemployment in Ireland, giving the Irish economy a much needed boost, while making it easier for England to deal with its unruly Irish subjects.
Swift then goes on to offer statistical support for his proposal and specific data about the number of children to be sold, their weight and price and the projected eating patterns of their consumers. He even suggests some recipes for preparing this delicious new meat, reasoning that, with innovative cooks generating ever more and delicious new dishes, it will expand and improve the culinary experience of the wealthy, resulting in a healthier and happier population as a whole.
'A Modest Proposal' ends with the argument that the practice of selling and eating children will have positive effects on Irish family morality: husbands will treat their wives with more respect, and parents will value their children in ways as yet unknown. His proposal, he argues, will, if implemented, do more to solve Ireland's complex social, political and economic problems than any other measure that has yet been proposed

Answer:
1. Comics vs. Story books
Comics relay stories chronologically with artwork and text in speech bubbles, whereas story books relay stories through their written word and little to no illustration. Both are similar in the fact that they are meant to share stories with the reader.
2. Flowchart vs. Essay
A flowchart is a diagram that represents a workflow, process, or idea. Similarly, essays describe the same thing. Though unlike flowcharts it relays this information through organized paragraphs.
3. PowerPoint Presentation vs. Word Format Explanation
Both PowerPoint presentations and word format explanations aim to explain a topic or idea to the reader or watcher. Though the difference between the two is one does so through a visual slide show meant to make the information engaging to the watcher. On the contrary, a word format explanation delivers the information through text that a person must read to understand.
4. Advertisement in pamphlet vs. Advertisement in television.
Advertisement in pamphlets and television are meant to show off the benefits of a product to potential buyers. Both do very similar things, but television advertisements usually last just a few seconds, and show clips of people either discussing the product or happily showing it off. Advertisements shown on pamphlets are arguably much shorter, consisting of a single page with large pictures and typically bolded words that aim to convince potential customers to buy into the product.
