This study guide has been written for students and their teachers in KS3 and KS4 in the UK but may be suitable for students elsewhere. The guide suggests ways of responding to Jonathan Swift's pamphlet A Modest Proposal for preventing the children of poor people in Ireland, from being a burden on their parents or country, and for making them beneficial to the publick. Read the text thoroughly - perhaps with some help from a teacher, and attempt one of the tasks described on this guide - or agree some other task with your teacher.
If you wish to work traditionally these activities can be done in an exercise book, or as a booklet using your own skills in illustration and writing. If you wish to use computer software for your work, this is quite appropriate. The tasks may work well as speaking and listening activities; you are encouraged to present these “live” or make use of tape-recording or multi-media software recording to show your work. In such cases, where the guide refers to writing, you may respond by speaking.
Answer:
B. Evidence
Explanation:
When you make an inference, you are doing so with the evidence and context clues you have before you. An inference is a prediction, and you can't make a prediction without knowing the information. Therefore, in order to make a proper inference, you should have evidence to back it up with.
Example:
"With this sentence, "Mary ate some frosted cupcakes, even though she is allergic to frosting.", infer what will happen next?"
It is evident that there is frosting on the cupcake, and even though she is allergic to the frosting, Mary eats it. I can infer that the will get sick and/or have an allergic reaction due to her allergy.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
This man had two sons, the younger of the two asked his father for his share of the estate, so it was given to him. He went out and spent all of his wealth in wild living. Not long after spending all of his money the land went into a severe famine and he had nothing to eat, so he went out to find work. He went to take care of someone's pigs. He was so hungry he longed to just eat some of the pig slop. Soon after that he decided to go and ask his father if he could be one of his servants because he messed up. On his way back home his father saw him in the distance and ran to him. Before he could say anything his father told one of his servants to quickly put a ring on his finger because his son who was dead is now alive again.
