Answer:

2) Swift asserts that whoever finds “a fair, cheap and easy method” for solving the overwhelming issue of poverty in England would deserve to have “his statue set up for a preserver of the nation.”

4) Swift explains that his proposal would bring relief to impoverished parents because they would “be rid of the charge of maintaining them after the first year.”

Explanation:

The exact phrases taken from Jonathan Swift's "A Modest Proposal" are placed within quotation marks, with full stops within the quotation marks as well.

The rest of the choices are incorrect because in sentence one the quote introduction is between quotation marks; sentence three is a paraphrase with no quotes; and sentence five is missing a full stop at the end.

Answers 2 and 4 are correct.

Answer 5 is correct -- but only if a period is meant to come at the end of the sentence. (I'm not sure if the period was accidentally left off by the student. If the teacher deliberately left the period off, Answer 5 is not correct.) Answer 5 should be .....penalties," writes Swift.
