English

Over [174]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

"This latter effect heightened by an unnatural glow which colored his face like a low, incessant fever."

Explanation:

The above sentence from the given excerpt most likely displays that Gordon Sterrett was extremely appalled by his shabby appearance. There is a detailed description of his appearance in the excerpt as 'small, slender, and darkly handsome, unusually framed eyes with long eyelashes with a blue semicircle of ill health' which clearly justifies Gordon's embarrassment to see him. The negative words 'unnatural glow', 'low face', and 'incessant fever' supports this claim effectively and justifies it constructively.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Meaning of laconic

It's the style of talking, people who answer in the few brief words. So, in this passage it shows that wife doesn't talk generally, but briefly, since it also says "occasionally correcting him on his lefts and rights", so she didn't really give the directions she just corrected his husband.

swat32

In the "modest proposal", Jonathan uses a satirical and an ironical way of presenting his ideas to grab the attention of the audience.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A "Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift is a satirical and an ironical way in which the social and economic problems ,like poverty, have been presented. There have been absurd suggestions given in the essay by him to fight with the problem of poverty in the society like the idea of selling the children of the poor to the rich people.

Jonathan Swift decided to choose this absurd, sarcastic, ironical way to deal with such a concrete problem of the society so that he could grab the attention of the people towards the increasing problem of poverty in the society where the words mean the opposite of what they actually suggest.
