benjamin franklin wrote, “remarks concerning the savages of north america” in 1784. he wrote “remarks” to end the misconceptions about the native americans and stop to call them savages. he wanted to show that in reality, whites were the one who was savage. he uses satire, irony, and sarcasm to show the misconceptions about the native american that the whites have. he didn't use analogy in “remarks”. an analogy is a comparison which is made between two things to show some similarity among themselves.

eli whitney was an american inventor best known for inventing the cotton gin. this was one of the key inventions of the industrial revolution and shaped the economy of the antebellum south.

the word that best matches the meaning of the expression "went to the big ocean" is died.
