Answer:
I think we all have a beautiful place in our mind. I have a wonderful place that made me happy a lot of times, years ago. But sometimes I think that I am the only person who likes this place and I'm asking myself if this place will be as beautiful as I thought when I will go back to visit it again. Perhaps I made it beautiful in my mind.This place is meaningful to me because it is part of the county I loved, is part of the county where I grew up and is part of my childhood. This place is in the country in an old region named Appalachia, a small piece of the Appalachian Mountains, in a town named Pikeville.Pikeville is a polluted town because of the coal industry. People live in apartment or condominium buildings because of its little space available. I grew up in one of the many buildings in Pikeville admiring from my bedroom window the beauty of the mountains, always exploring with my eyes the forest or the meadows, looking for a clean and quiet place. And, I found one on a hill in the back of the town. It is about 100 feet square, it has seven old trees, wild flowers and a lot of bugs and ants during summer time.I used to go there to sit down on a rock and watch the town and my trees. There was a very old tree, a maple tree, with a huge trunk. The others were smaller, three in the back, three on my left side and the old maple tree on my right. There were flowers, many kinds, white, yellow, purple and blue. It was nobody's place. Nobody owned that hill, but it was beautiful and peaceful and I dreamed many times about a white house over there.
I think that, these kinds of places are meaningful to people because they are natural and people can be there alone, away from their everyday life.

Explanation:
This question is incomplete. The complete question is the following:
<em>(From "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift)</em>
<em>For first, as I have already observed, it would greatly lessen the number of Papists, with whom we are yearly over-run, being the principal breeders of the nation, as well as our most dangerous enemies, and who stay at home on purpose with a design to deliver the kingdom to the Pretender, hoping to take their advantage by the absence of so many good Protestants, who have chosen rather to leave their country, than stay at home and pay tithes against their conscience to an episcopal curate.</em>
1.The "principal breeders" of the nation refer to ______.
2.In the last line, the writer talks about the "good Protestants" to ______.
1.
- nonworking population
- the catholic population in poverty
- young men and women in poverty
- foreigners living in ireland
2.
- mock the protestants for paying tithes(compulsory donations).
- criticize the growing influence of the catholic population.
- highlight the sufferings of Irish protestants.
- criticize protestants who abandoned their country.
In the first case, the author refers to "principal breeders." By saying this, he is referring to people who have most of the babies in the nation. In "A Modest Proposal," these are identified to be Irish Catholics. Swift also refers to them as "papist," due to the the Pope being the head of the Catholic Church. Therefore, he is referring to the Catholic population in poverty.
In the second case, Swift is talking about "good Protestants" who leave their country because they cannot tolerate the idea of staying at home and dealing with the nation's problems. Swift says "good Protestants" in an ironic way, as his purpose is to criticize such a defeatist attitude. Therefore, we know that the author talks about good Protestants in order to criticize people who have abandoned their country.
Answer:
The speaker feels anxious and eager. He knows that ultimately the suffering will be worth it.
