Answer 1

Answer: “A Modest Proposal” is one of the most brilliant, well-constructed, and effective satires ever written.

Step-by-step explanation:

An objective take on a literary piece would be one that simply states what the piece is about or what its purpose was.

A subjective take however, would include personal opinions and analysis of the piece. This is what happens in this option. In describing the piece as brilliant and well-constructed, the take includes personal opinions of how the book is so this is a subjective take.
