He is wealthy enough to live in West Egg but not wealthy enough to rent a very nice place.

Nick describes his place as "an eyesore". This detail shows us that the place he's renting is not nice in comparison to the other homes in West Egg. We also know that he must have some wealth in order to afford to pay eighty dollars a month during this time period. From this excerpt, there is no indication that Nick's choice to live in the small house is temporary or that he seems desperate to become part of the elite society. He may be impressed by material wealth because he describes the proximity of the millionaires as "consoling", so option A is also not a good choice.

5. Lines 54–62: What generalization about the poor in Ireland can you infer from these lines? How does Swift use this view to ma
Alja [10]

Hello. You did not submit the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, in the context of the question, it is possible to see that you are referring to "A Modest Proposal" by Johnathan Swift.

In this case, the generalization that Swift makes about the Irish is that they are all poor and lazy, with many children to support and that they like to cause problems for the British population. He uses this comment to reinforce the way the British see the Irish and are prejudiced, generating intense social problems, but acting as if Ireland was to blame for it, even if these problems are caused by England's heavy exploitation of the Irish territory.

"A Modest Proposal" is a satire where Swift mocks the domination of England over the British and points out the hypocrisy of the rich and religious.
