labwork [276]

Answer:

Check the answer and explanations below

Explanation:

The author's purpose is to show how the women and blacks have been able to prove wrong the racist and sexist assumptions of the American Aviation by ensuring that they continue to remain relevant in the aviation industry.

Answer:

D. He doesn't always agree with the choices of who is honored by the public.

Explanation:

This excerpt is from Jonathan Swift's (1667 – 1745) satirical article "A Modest Proposal" - <em>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.</em>

There is also a sharp sense of satire in author's usage of words "fair, cheap and easy". Jonathan Swift's satire is aimed toward government whose policies even in matters of such great importance are economy centered.
