Answer:
The first sentence if modified can make the paragraph into a stronger argumentative speech.
Explanation:
Current opening sentence: Genetically modified foods unequally benefit rich countries, including the United States.
Revised opening sentence: Rich countries including the United States currently enjoy more benefits from the production and sale of Genetically Modified Foods than developing nations.
So the complete paragraph looks like this:
<em>Rich countries including the United States currently enjoy more benefits from the production and sale of Genetically Modified Foods than developing nations. The USDA reports that the US gained the vast majority of the total world benefit from new herbicide-tolerant soybeans in 1997. In addition, the US company that created the soybeans charged farmers a technology fee. These high adoption costs will continue to limit the benefits of genetically modified crops to rich countries that do not need the higher yields, rather than extending them to poorer nations that do.</em>

In revising the first paragraph, we are able to go in with a stronger argument or hook which is critical to an argumentative essay.

1. </span><span>B. Sarcastic
</span><span>Swift understands the gamble he is taking by proposing this 'plan', so the heightened and formal language, 'hoping' that no one will object to it is sarcasm because he does not actually mean what he is saying.
2. </span><span>C.The plan is meant to arouse objections and horror
Swift knows that the initial reaction to this piece will be one of outrage and horror, and that many people will object to the 'plan'. When he uses the phrase "I hope will not be liable to the least objection' it is clear irony because he knows how objectionable his plan actually is. </span>
