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.

Can someone help me please

Answer:this job is not the best. It stinks and almost plugs my nose. When i come home for the day, I am pretty sure I am nose blind. The garbage bags are hard on my back and I think I will need to go to the chiropractor after I take a quick nap. If I don't do this job, I will not be able to pay for this month's rent. I have to keep going. It takes up most of my homework time too. I barely get any time to sneak in some studying. The only bright side of this job is that my best friend Bono is doing this with me. He has to get out of the way of his parents sometimes. Especially when they take up almost all of his house with their jobs. Half the time they are not there and they leave a mess. Most days Bono just lives with me. I have to keep this job if I want to keep on staying under a roof.

*Write about a time when someone helped you get better at something you were struggling with. Who helped you? How did they help
aev [14]

Answer:

Life is a constant battle of dealing with a struggle, an addiction, perhaps pressure from so many sides. At some point in my life, I had to deal with at least one of these. Mine was low self-esteem. I had to constantly seek validation from others; despite my intelligence and drive for success. I appreciated the approval of people to run my life. Along life's way, I encountered a lot of people that took advantage of my vulnerability. I came to realize that people you meet always have a role to play in your life. I silently battled with my struggle until I met this individual (Mark), who on one of my insecure days told me that I did well at a particular presentation which seemed not perfect to me.

Unknown to me, he was my new Lecturer. His words meant a lot to me. The words of encouragement was a great deal because it was needed at that time. His words shaped me into a better person because I started to believe in my abilities. His words still resonate in my mind " do not fidget, always keep your chin up, you have got this, you are the best".

The most difficult part of the learning experience was when I failed a subject. I would constantly switch to my former self while trying to be strong. I would cry myself to sleep. I read my books overnight and spent hours in the Library during school hours. I just wanted to be the best. I had to double my efforts when I did not get the grades I wanted. I realized i was very intelligent and that the fears within made me fail so many times.

Study the editorial cartoon Mars Probe by Mike Keefe. On another planet, 3 aliens are playing baseball, and one holds a baseball
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The alien with the baseball bat contributes to the effectiveness of the cartoon because:

B. It uses humor to show that unknown factors keep damaging the probes humans send.

Explanation:

Keefe finds a funny and, of course, improbable explanation as to why probes sent from Earth are constantly being damaged. In his cartoon, aliens play baseball. If that weren't funny enough, they are doing it with the purpose of breaking the probes. In a way, Keefe is using something that many people have most likely wondered: What if aliens do exist, but they do things that keep us from finding out about them?
