ork, having no other motive than the publick good of my country, by advancing our trade, providing for infants, relieving the poor, and giving some pleasure to the rich.

I believe the correct answer is - According to Swift, he has “not the least personal interest in endeavouring to promote this necessary work.” 
This sentence shows that he has no personal motive for making this proposal, especially given that his wife cannot have any more children, so the proposal doesn't affect him in the slightest. This means that he made the proposal for the sole purpose of helping others, not himself. The first and the last option are incorrect as they don't even use the quotations, and the third option doesn't show that he has no personal gain out of this.

Anton [14]

Answer:

The Dust Bowl was a devestating event in American History. The Dust Bowl was a period of time when dust covered multiple regions of the United states but eventually effected the entire country. The Dust Bowl survivors fled to the city of California to escape the dust in their hometowns. The survivors were viewied diffrently by the residents of California. Some viewed the survivors as refugees struglling to live while others viewed them as intruders competing for land and jobs in california. 

The Dust Bowl started in 1930 when severe drought started to hit the regions and in 1931 massive dust storms began to happen. By 1934 an estimated 35 million acres of formerly cultivated land had been rendered useless for farming, while another 125 million acres was rapidly losing its topsoil. The Dust killed many livestock and other animals that got in its way. The people living in the Dust Bowl areas were starting to escape the dust and go to California to start a new life. The citizens of California had diffrent viewpoints towards the survivors. Some viewed them as intruders competing for land and wealth in California while other viewed them as refugees escaping a natural disaster that they had no control over. The survivors just wanted to live in peace and make a living in california. The survivors were refugees because they just wanted to survive and if they had the intention to make money and be wealthy they would have done that before the Dust Bowl occured.

The Dust Bowl was a devestating event in the US history that affected all of the US. The survivors of the dust bowl were refugees with no intention of getting rich hoping to live and survive.

Read this thesis statement: "Heart of Darkness plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo." What is wrong with it?
Monica [59]

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Read this thesis statement: "<em>Heart of Darkness</em> plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo." What is wrong with it?:

A) It is too narrow.

B) It is a plot summary.

C) It is too obvious.

D) It is not supported by the text.

Answer:

The correct answer is option A) It is too narrow.

Explanation:

As we know, this story is narrated by the protagonist, Charlie Marlow, who tells us of the journey he made going up a tropical river to locate a certain Kurtz, an elusive and legendary explorer who, according to his superiors, seems to have entrenched himself deep inside from the jungle. Soon the journey turns into a multi-troubled journey, with mystery and degradation growing as the legend of Lord Kurtz enlarges and takes shape.

The novel is based on a true story in the life of Conrad, who sailed up the Congo River as a ship captain in 1890 while working for the SGB company. There, amid the exploitation and genocide that the settlers carried out in the Congo Free State - the private preserve of King Leopold II of Belgium - Conrad was truly traumatized, wanting to relate the horror of his experience in a book in which, on the other hand, and despite the parallels between author and protagonist, no real places or characters are mentioned.

Just using the phrase<em> "plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo"</em> is too vague to describe the actual plot. Therefore, answer A is correct.
