1. camouflage is one way animals protect themselves.
reflexive
intensive

2. some animals themselves are protected with a built-in camouflage.
reflexive
intensive

3. a mother polar bear can hide herself and her cubs in the open.
reflexive
intensive

4. the bear’s fur itself blends with the surrounding snow.
reflexive
intensive

5. the otter protects itself by blending in with nearby tree trunks.
reflexive
intensive
underlined words are
1. themselves
2. themselves
3. herself
4. itself
5. itself

The correct answers are:

1- Reflexive

The pronoun "themselves" here is refering to the subject: animals.

2- Intensive

Here, the word "themselves" seek to put emphasis on the fact that it is the animals who are being protected by the camouflage.

3- Reflexive

"Herself" in this sentence acts as a reflexive pronoun because the subject and the object (the mother polar bear) are the same.

4- Intensive

The word "itself" is used to stress that what blends with the snow is the bear's fur.

5- Reflexive

"Itself" here is a reflexive pronoun because it refers to the subject and functions as direct object.

No that is not true as is displayed by the book 'A modest Proposal'

Explanation:

A modest proposal is one of the most brilliant pieces of satire ever written and presents a very absurd argument.

The point is not to make the people to agree to the argument but to say that what it represents is based in reality and morally abhorrent.

By laying a factual and well argued claim for the fact one actually foes on to claim that the practice should not be done as it is wrong even though its being justified by the text itself

This is the prime point made by the text .
