The correct answer is the following: <em>option B. It can be said that Jefferson's purpose in the excerpt is to gain sympathy for the American cause.</em> The excerpt provided in the question belongs to the Declaration of Independence wrote by the Founding Fathers of the United States. In the excerpt, Thomas Jefferson, one of the Founding Fathers, is trying to gain sympathy for the American cause by not only focusing the blame on the British monarchy but also by denouncing the British people in general. In the excerpt, Jefferson charges against the citizens of the United Kingdom by highlighting that they all have chosen to look to the other side when it came to the American cause, "They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity".

Which statement best describes Swift's use of understatement in this excerpt? He states that "roasting pigs" is more difficult t
m_a_m_a [10]

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.
