□ details about swift’s personal life and career as a writer
□ an explanation of the meaning and purpose of the satire
□ the writer’s opinion about swift’s essay and political beliefs
□ some quotations that serve as evidence of swift’s ideas

Explanation:

A summary should focus on the text itself. Paraphrasing main ideas gives an overview. Explaining satire's meaning and purpose is key as it's a satirical work. Quotations as evidence support the summary. Details about Swift's personal life (not relevant to the text's content) and the writer's opinion (summary should be objective) are not needed.

Answer:

a paraphrase of the main ideas in "A Modest Proposal", an explanation of the meaning and purpose of the satire, some quotations that serve as evidence of Swift’s ideas
