What is Swift's purpose in listing other ways to solve
the issue of poverty?
Read the excerpt from "A Modest Proposal."
This I freely own, and 'twas indeed one principal design
in offering it to the world. I desire the reader will
observe, that I calculate my remedy for this one
individual Kingdom of Ireland, and for no other that ever
was, is, or, I think, ever can be upon Earth. Therefore
let no man talk to me of other expedients: Of taxing our
absentees at five shillings a pound: Of using neither
cloaths, nor houshold furniture, except what is of our
own growth and manufacture: Of utterly rejecting the
materials and instruments that promote foreign luxury
A. to show that his plan to sell children is the most
reasonable plan that has been put forth
B. to show that society is already asking too much of
wealthy individuals
C. to show that real reform is possible with reasonable
sacrifice
D. to show that there are many other people who are
trying to bring about reform

What does the author see as the main cause for why students don’t really see shakespeare as a real, flawed human being? we shouldn’t shy away from discussing our literary heroes’ flaws. if nothing else, the knowledge of their failures us appreciate what success and greatness these authors did achieve. often our hero-worship keeps us from truly seeing the complexity of a great author. thus, i would argue, nothing would be better for high school students than to take shakespeare down a peg or two. a) the fact that students never learn enough about shakespeares biography b) the fact that students only read shakespeare’s comedies while in school c) the fact that students are never assigned to read any shakespeare while in high school d) the fact that students only read shakespeare’s greatest works in school and thus never see his weaknesses
