Answer:

It presents an argument for treating children like livestock, which the reader isn't meant to take seriously

Explanation:

A Modest Proposal is how Jonathan Swift's satirical essay got to be known for. The actual name of the essay is: <u><em>A Modest Proposal For preventing the Children of Poor People From being a Burthen to Their Parents or Country, and For making them Beneficial to the Publick</em></u>. This essay suggests that poor people from Ireland can diminish their money problems by selling their kids as food for rich people.

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try and help as best I can.

The only way to answer this question is to read this text in full. However, from the context of the question we can see that Jane and Bella will react very differently to the the fire escape collapse and that the way they would act is related to the type of education they received. Generally speaking, we can understand that if Bella or Jane received an education focused on problem solving, tranquility and critical and solving thinking, she can act very rationally when dealing with the collapse of the fire escape, trying to solve the problems that this caused in a practical and safe way, otherwise, any of them would act in complete disorganization and nervousness, without being able to solve or act correctly in this situation. To understand this, you must read the text and identify the type of education each of them received and how it affects their behavior in adverse situations.

<span>The answer would be Letter C - I don't think so.

It is not grammitcally correct to place 'it' at the end of the sentence, and adding no word at the end makes the sentence complete. The best choice would be letter C.

Hope that helps. -UF aka Nadia</span>
