The excerpt is the following:
<em>As to our City of Dublin, shambles may be appointed for this purpose, in the most convenient parts of it, and butchers we may be assured will not be wanting; although I rather recommend buying the children alive, and dressing them hot from the knife, as we do roasting pigs.</em>
Answer:
He states that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs."
Explanation:
An understatement is a figure of speech that consists of intentionally representing something less important or smaller than it really is. This is what Swift uses when he suggests that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs." The author employs this figure of speech to catch the readers' attention and to criticize Irish society and its attitude toward the condition of poor farmers and laborers who can not feed their children due to the high rent they have to pay to their landowners. In order to improve the poor's economic situation, they'd better sell their children off as food to feed the wealthy.

Flashbulb
Explanation:
A flashbulb memory is a highly comprehensive, unique graphic 'snapshot' of the time and happenings in which a bit of confounding and significant (or emotionally inducing) news was learned of.
The word "flashbulb memory" connotes the confounding, non-selective, expressed, and conciseness of a photograph; although flashbulb memories are only kind of non-selective and incomplete. Findings has supported that despite the fact that people are highly self-assured in their memories, the conciseness of the memories may not be exact as it happened.
Flashbulb memories are a form of autobiographical memory. Some researchers suppose that there is a need to distinguish flashbulb memories from varying forms of autobiographical memory since its dependent on factors of personal value, annotations, emotion, and amazement.
Flashbulb memories possesses six peculiar attributes: place, the present activity, informer, own effect, other effect, and aftermath. Possibly, the major stimulus of a flashbulb memory entails a risen level of surprise, a risen amount of antecedents, and maybe emotional inducement.
One evening, me and my friend Jack were playing outside. We decided a friendly game of football would be fun. We were just tossing and throwing the ball to each other, like normal boys would do.
All of a sudden, Jack started crying. I went up to him in desperation, as I noticed that he had broken his arm! He ran into the neighbor's car, and he hit his arm so hard on the side mirror, that it broke! We had to admit him into the hospital!
After a long time in the emergency room, Jack was free to go to his house. This had to be the scariest moment for me. I'm going to be taking a little break from football. I hope this never happens again...
