Answer:
The irony about Jen's step-dad working for the Population police is that he broke the rule of the Population Police of having two children, by having a third child, and yet working for the organization.
Explanation:
'Among the Hidden' is a novel written by Margaret Peterson Haddix. The novel is about a society, where the Population Police has prohibited families for having more than two children.
Jen, just like Luke, is a third child in her family. Jen's mother had two sons before Jen, but she decided to have a girl on purpose, so they bribed the doctor and had Jen as a third child. The irony about Jen's step-dad working for the Population Police is that he broke the rule of having two children by having a third child, yet he is working for the Population Police. He is working for the organization, whose rule he has broken, so this is the irony.
This 'short essay' is basically asking you create a piece of writing, convincing your audience of your point. For example; I firmly believe that every single country should not have nuclear bombs. In general, I'd include:
*Nuclear Bomb Simulator to give an image I how much damage it does. What this does is, people tend to hate destructive behaviours. By showing them how much damage it does, you're appealing to their sense of emotion by conjuring a sense of panic.
*Death counts from previous wars to further reinforce the emotion of panic, sadness, and awareness. Death count for those individuals who demand solid scientific evidence.
In a nutshell, basically, include statistics (supports your argument with logical data that's already proven), history from past events if possible (to appeal to one's emotions), and if possible, choose evidence that's more modernized to further prove your point. Why so? Simply because it proves that the problem still persists, no matter how advanced in technology we are. in this case, nuclear bombs are going to be dangerous, regardless of how "modernized" we all are.
