Explanation:

• Question 6: In A Modest Proposal, Swift frames impoverished Irish children as a "livestock-like" resource to critique inequality, using livestock terms consistently.
• Question 7: Swift's satirical proposal explicitly suggests purchasing children alive, drawing a direct parallel to buying livestock like pigs.
