Answer: the correct answer is A. Sarcastic.

Explanation: In the poem "the Lady's Dressing Room" by  Jonathan Swift, the author depicts a woman grooming herself. She uses many ointments and creams and things that aren't so clean. The author uses sarcasm because if the woman were a beauty or a goddess, she wouldn't use so many ointments.

The correct answer is option A ("Sarcastic").

In this short excerpt from Jonathan Swift's poem "The Lady's Dressing Room", we have <u>a couple of clues</u> that clearly enough indicate a sarcastic tone.

Primarily, what I'm looking at is <u>the choice of words</u> from the author:

The woman is not being addressed as a simple human but rather a female deity or <u>goddess</u>. Her struggles (as large as they may seem to her), are somewhat dismissed or mocked by the poet considering that the lady is surrounded by luxury. The mention of <u>brocades</u> also points towards that tonal direction, given that it's a highly expensive fabric most commonly laced with gold or silver.


Hope this helps!

topjm [15]

One attitude to promote individual health is to have a balanced diet and exercise regularly.

Explanation:

For those who engage in regular physical activity, eating is a key factor in ensuring a good individual health outcome. There are many factors that influence an individual's health, but physical exercise and balanced diet is the starting point for a strong body, which will prevent numerous diseases and health problems.

Proper nutrition helps prevent fatigue, optimizes recovery time, reduces the risk of injury, and ensures correct replenishment of energy stocks. The practice of physical exercises, in turn, strengthens the cardiovascular system, strengthening the heart and helping the circulation of the body.
