And if any of you are curious about where this aggregation, this whole battery-powered crew, is headed, let us just say that the

real center of the universe, the only true point of view, is full of the hope that he, the hub of the cosmos with his hair blown sideways, will eventually make it all the way downtown. What message does Collins convey in this excerpt? Working downtown can be challenging. Music is a positive distraction to the routine of daily life. Curious people believe the world revolves around music. High volume is much better than low volume.

The correct answer is B.

In these lines, Collins indicates that music is a positive distraction to the routine of daily life. Thanks to the music coming through his earphones, the subject of the poem believes he is "the real center of the universe." He is paying more attention to the music he hears than he is to what is happening around him. For this reason, music is a positive distraction.

arlik [135]

Answer:

d. He states that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs."

Explanation:

Jonathan Swift was an English writer, critic and poet who had also greatly written about the political issues of his society and time. The essay "A Modest Proposal" was anonymously published by him as a form of critiquing the impoverished nature of the Irish people and their economic troubles.

The excerpt from the essay shows Swift suggesting sarcastically that poor families should produce children and then sell them as meat for the rich. He implies that this will not only give an endless supply of food (meat) for the rich to entertain their guests but also provide a steady source of income for the poor people too. This will enable the balance in the economic situation of the Irish people.

An understatement is the presentation of something that is serious in a far less serious manner. This makes the issue seem less serious or less important. Swift uses an understatement when he stated that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs". Sending children to be killed and eaten as meat is a serious and horrifying thing to do, but he compares it to a simple act of "roasting pigs", thus making it an understatement.
