Read the excerpt from "A Modest Proposal."
What is Swift's purpose in listing other ways to solve
the issue of poverty?
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 ...

5. Reread paragraph 45. How are Jim and Della similar to the Magi?
O A Jim and Della are shopping for Christmas presents; the Magi
invented the tradition of giving Christmas presents
OB Jim and Della make great sacrifices to give each other special
Christmas gifts
OC Jim and Della are poor, and cannot give each other what they want
for Christmas
OD Jim and Della are deeply religious, and hold the Magi in high esteem
BACK
SAVE & NEXT
Answer:
B Jim and Della make great sacrifices to give each other special
Christmas gifts
Explanation:
The story deals with two lovers who were always ready to make sacrifices for each other. Jim and Della shared a reciprocal love that was not self centered, and were ready to abhor each other. Thus, they made sacrifices with respect to their salient or very important items of possession so as to make each other happy.
Both were unselfish in the relationship, thus their similarity to Magi due to the great sacrifices made so as to give each other a gift.
Exercises about Present Continuous Tense
1. Pass the sentences to PRESENT CONTINUOS.
a) Jane rides a bike all the weekends.
b) I jump in all the parties that I go.
c) My friend does the school's work at night.
d) My mother make cake all the weekends.
My friends and I ride a bike every weekend. We enjoyed it very much.
f) George have a long hair.
g) I bring a snack to school all the day.
h) I sleep until late every day.
i) I think to go to London next year.
j) I play computer games in my bedroom.
Answer:
The sentences in the present continuous are:
a) Jane is riding a bike this weekend.
b) I am jumping in the party right now.
c) My friend is doing the school's work tonight.
d) My mother is making a cake this weekend.
e) My friends and I are riding our bikes this weekend. We are enjoying it very much.
f) George is wearing long hair.
g) I am bringing a snack to school today.
h) I am sleeping until late tomorrow.
i) I am thinking of going to London next year.
j) I am playing computer games in my bedroom.
Explanation:
The present continuous structure is the following:
subject + am/is/are + main verb with -ing
We need to pay attention to the use of the present continuous as well before we can transform the sentences. The present continuous is used to refer to actions that are taking place at the moment of speaking or that are to happen in a nearby future. Notice that the present continuous cannot be used for habitual actions - that is for the simple present. That is why, in the sentences above, more changes were necessary. Instead of "all the weekends," which refers to a habitual action, for instance, we can use "this weekend".
NOTE: For letter F, I needed to change the verb. In English, "George is having long hair" is not an acceptable structure.

When you read for pleasure, your only goal is enjoyment. You might find yourself reading to get caught up in an exciting story, to learn about an interesting time or place, or just to pass time. Maybe you’re looking for inspiration, guidance, or a reflection of your own life. There are as many different, valid ways of reading a book as there are books in the world.
When you read a work of literature in an English class, however, you’re being asked to read in a special way: you’re being asked to perform literary analysis. To analyze something means to break it down into smaller parts and then examine how those parts work, both individually and together. Literary analysis involves examining all the parts of a novel, play, short story, or poem—elements such as character, setting, tone, and imagery—and thinking about how the author uses those elements to create certain effects.
