Read this excerpt from Jonathan Swift's "A Modest Proposal":
I shall now therefore humbly propose my own thoughts,
which I hope will not be liable to the least objection.
I have been assured by a very knowing American of my
acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well
nursed is at least a year old a most delicious, nourishing,
and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or
boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a
fricassee or a ragout...
grant this food will be somewhat dear, and therefore very
proper for landlords, who, as they have already devoured
most of the parents, seem to have the best title to the
children.
Why does Jonathan Swift use satire in A Modest Proposal?
O A. To critic ze people responsible for policy in Ireland
O B. To suggest a way that multiple problems in Ireland can be
alleviated
O C. To entertain the reader by mocking the plight of the Irish
D. To prov de moral instruction for hio Inich readers
