English

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Jonathan Swift said his proposal will prevent poor children, the sons and daughters of poor people, from being a heavy burden to their parents. He also thought that these children could be of some benefit to the country. The author considered in the book that the streets of Dublin, Ireland, are full of beggars, of poor people with small children asking for money.

We are talking about the book "A Modest Proposal," written by Jonathan Swift in 1729. Swift (1866-1745) was a prominent Irish writer, famous for their satirist works. He was the author of renown works such as "Gulliver Travels" of 1726 and "A Tale of Tube" of 1704.

His proposal is to fatten up the undernourished children and feed them to Ireland's rich land-owners. Children of the poor could be sold into a meat market at the age of one and combating overpopulation and unemployment, sparing families the expense of child-bearing while providing them with a little extra income, improving the culinary experience of the wealthy, and contributing to the overall economic well-being of the nation.

What characteristic of Harry's makes us think that he might be a trustworthy narrator?
scoray [572]

Answer:

He tells us when he has minor flaws such as being afraid.

Explanation:

One of the most common issues making a narrator untrustworthy is his/her bias toward oneself and toward other characters of the story whom he/she likes or does not like.

Most of the time bias is in favor of oneself, in rare cases it may be against oneself - blaming oneself excessively.

Telling one's own minor and/or major flaws is only one of many characteristics to make a narrator trustworthy.

All other options are either insignificant for adjudging him as a trustworthy narrator, or opposite of what makes him trustworthy and neutral.

Second and third options are insignificant (do not contribute in making him neutral narrator)

Fourth option is incorrect because focusing on oneself makes a narrator biased and hence untrustworthy.

How does wealth in The Great Gatsby relate today?
Ber [7]

Answer:

Despite being a commentary on a different age and people, Gatsby's story is as relevant today as it was when it was written. Because it explores universal themes --- human follies, the hopelessness of societal constructs and man's struggle with time and fate. Im sorry if this is not the answer you looking for, but its what i got :).
