Read the excerpt from "A Modest Proposal." The poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own, which by law may be made liable to a distress, and help to pay their landlord's rent, their corn and cattle being already seized, and money a thing unknown. Which statement effectively uses a quotation to show that Swift claims that the poor will also benefit from his proposal? “Swift writes that poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own, which by law may be made liable to a distress.” Swift writes that poorer tenants will finally have something to help pay their landlord’s rent since they have neither money nor trade. Swift writes that poorer tenants will have something to trade for rent since “their corn and cattle” have already been seized. Swift writes that “poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own” that can “help to pay their landlord’s rent.”

Swift writes that “poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own” that can “help to pay their landlord’s rent.”

Explanation:

A direct quotation is used when a source is directly quoted when writing one's argument. This is done by putting the quoted words within quotation marks to show the words that are 'copied' and taken from the original source and also to prevent a case of plagiarism.

In the essay "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift, the speaker presents a 'suitable solution' that will benefit everyone ins society, including the poor. He argues that if the young children were 'used' as meat, then the rich will not be devoid of their meat and the parents will have a regular flow of income. Moreover, he also added that this will enable both the tenants and the landlord to be at peace, for they will both get what they want and keep their relationship going.

And in quoting the words from the pamphlet, the fourth option is the best effective use of quotation.

Thus, the correct answer is the last/ fourth option.
