The triangle trade, also called Western or Atlantic slave trafficking, was a slave trade conducted between Europe, Africa and the Americas between the XVIe and XIX centuries. Its aim was to provide black slaves to colonies of the New World (America), to supply Europe with products from these settlements and to sell in Africa,European and American products. This was, for the European ships, to bring to the Atlantic coasts of Africa different goods of European origin, objects of little value, guns, weapons... highly appreciated by Africans. Goods were exchanged for black African prisoners, who were then forced to go to Americas. Here men, women, children... were sold as slaves to work in the cotton or sugar cane fields.The ships then returned to Europe with American coffee, sugar, cotton, rum which were resold. This trade lasted from the XVIe century until the early XIXe century. They say it was triangular because, on a map, it was represented by arrows connecting Europe, Africa and America which draw a triangle.

Answer:
The statement which best explains why readers get a sense of satisfaction from the story's resolution is:
D. Roger has learned that he can be trusted and valued.
Explanation:
Roger and Mrs. Jones are characters in the short story "Thank You, Ma'am," by author Langston Hughes. Roger is a teenage boy who tries to steal Mrs. Jones's purse. Instead of screaming for the police or simply beating Roger - Mrs. Jones is a strong woman -, she brings him home with her.
The story revolves around Roger learning a lesson. To his surprise, Mrs. Jones treats him well. Even though her words aren't said in a kind manner, there is kindness in her intentions. She tells him to go wash up and to comb his hair. While he does that, she cooks him dinner. Mrs. Jones tells him there was no need to try and steal from her. He could have asked for some money if he needed it instead.
Her behavior and what it means to Roger give readers a sense of satisfaction. They know Mrs. Jones has left a mark in Roger's life and that, most likely, he won't rob people from now on. He now knows he can be trusted and valued.
