Answer:

The problem that Ireland was facing when Swift wrote "A Modest Proposal" was:

<em>D. Extreme poverty among many families </em>

Explanation:

"A Modest Proposal" is a satirical essay by Jonathan Swift. The essay was written in 1729. Satire is a literary device that consists of using humor, irony or exaggeration in order to convey a message and criticize something. <u><em>Swift proposes that poor Irish families should sell their children as food and clothing to the rich, in order to ease their economic problems.</em></u> Swift aimed to criticize: society's attitude towards the poor and the British policies that were made in order to "eliminate poverty in Ireland."

Compare and contrast letter to a young refugee from another and farewell to manzanar
abruzzese [7]

Letter to a Young Refugee from another and Farewell to Manzanar are both stories about struggles of families inside a refugee camp for the former and internment camp for the latter. In the “Letter to a Young refugee” which took place in Guam after the Vietnam war, Lam addresses another refugee he saw in the news to relate his previous experience. The theme is more like, “I know what you are going through.”

In “Farewell to Manzanar”, the main character went back to the old camp in Manzanar much later in her life to reflect on what used to be her life there as a displaced Japanese in America.

In paragraph 12, Turkle begins an extended metaphor: little “sips” of online connection. What does Turkle's metaphor describe?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Professor Sherry Turkle's little "sips" of online connection is a metaphor that describes the little "pieces" of conversation that we are having by using technological devices.

Explanation:

MIT Professor, Sherry Turkle, PhD, and a licensed clinical psychologist, with a joint doctorate in sociology and psychology, notes that people are now avoiding the necessary conversations that we ought to be having with one another because we are "plugged-in" to various technological devices.  In her write-up in the New York Times of April 21, 2012 titled "The Flight from Conversation," Professor Sherry Turkle urges people not to "sacrifice conversation for mere connection."  Since we are technology-enabled, she declares that we should make the best use of it to remain conversationally connected to others whether they are near or far, but must still bring ourselves to enjoy the indispensable face-to-face conversations with our fellow human beings.
