Whoever could find out a fair, cheap and easy method of making these children sound useful members of the common-wealth, would d
Lena [83]

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.

How is Malcolm’s lust for wealth different from Macbeth’s ambition for power?
Mice21 [21]
For all of the faults that Malcolm lists to Macduff, the main difference from Macbeth is that Malcolm's faults aren't real. He is just telling them to Macduff to test how he would respond to a bad leader, then assures Macduff that he is blameless of all of those faults and actually does not covet wealth in the way he said he did.
