Answer:
D. He doesn't always agree with the choices of who is honored by the public.
Explanation:
This excerpt is from Jonathan Swift's (1667 – 1745) "A Modest Proposal"<em> - A Modest Proposal for preventing the children of poor people in Ireland, from being a burden on their parents or country, and for making them beneficial to the publick.</em>
Option C is also similar to Option D, but option D better explain the situations.
From this excerpt and according to the options provided we can infer that the authors (Jonathan Swift) wants to stress on the importance of helping those children who are burden on their poor parents and country. He wants to say that this would be a real service to the public, and one which should really be appreciated.
In another sense there is also a satire in this piece of the excerpt in the usage and stress on words "fair, cheap and easy". Jonathan Swift is satirizing government's economy-centered policies. Government wants a fair, cheap and easy solution of issues which should be government's priority to solve at every cost. In fact this point of view of satire in this excerpt is more correct than the options provided.

The external conflict in “The Colomber” by Dino Buzzati happens <u>between Stefano and the colomber</u>.
Explanation:
The short story "The Colomber" by Dino Buzzati tells the story of Stefano Roi and his 'battle' with the sea monster "The Colomber". This short story delves into the relationship of the colomber and Stefano and how he had wasted his life fearing for his death.
An external conflict is when there arise problems or misunderstandings between two characters or things. This conflict involves the main character and some other characters of the plot. And in Buzzati's short story, the external conflict occurs between Stefano and the shark "the Colomber".
1. There has to be a conjunction between "important," and "other" because otherwise, the sentence doesn't seem coherent. You can place 'but' between those words to make it correct, and to connect the two ideas into one sentence.
2. The phrase 'such as journal entries and poetry' should be placed after 'period' because otherwise, it is located too far from the word it is supposed to describe. So, 'fiction from that time period, such as journal entries and poetry, can be just as valuable.'
3. Again, there should be a conjunction between the words 'read' and 'they' because the way this sentence is written, it doesn't seem connected. You can write either '...are interesting to read because they give..." or '...to read as they give...'
