Answer:

d. They consider starvation or shooting him with poisoned arrows.

Explanation:

Jonathan Swift's adventure story "Gulliver's Travels" is the fictional story of Lemuel Gulliver to various interesting nations. He met all kinds of living beings, some small, some bigger than him, and some even animal like.

Part I of the story tells his journey to the kingdom of Lilliput, a nation inhabited by small, tiny 6 inch people. Since he himself appears huge for them, they toed him and kept him captive for the time being. The king along with his men consulted with each other on what course to take regarding 'this' alien they had captured. One such consultation led to the councilmen suggesting that they starve him or kill him with poisoned arrows. But this idea was rejected for they will be left "<em>the stench of so large a carcass (which) might produce a plague in the metropolis, and probably spread through the whole kingdom</em>".

Can kindness be taught ? How
larisa86 [58]
I feel like kindness can be taught because if someone is mean and you set a good example and they want to be just like you they will start be kind. You can also teach kindness in a classroom by making everyone be nice to have a happy classroom and people will be asking for help and asking to borrow something. I also feel like it matter on the age.
