Read the excerpt from Letters of the Late Ignatius Sancho, An African. ’Tis at the service of the afflicted,—and a much greater

matter: for, in serious truth, it casts a sad shade upon the world, that so great a part of it are, and have been so long, bound in chains of darkness, and in chains of misery. What is Sterne’s purpose in this excerpt? to describe slavery as just one of many different types of injustices in the world to explain that slavery is deeply rooted in society and impossible to fight to show that slavery is a terrible practice that has brought misery to too many people to argue that sooner or later people will do the right thing and abolish slavery

It's also clear that he thinks it is a terrible practice, as he uses the phrases "bound in chains of darkness and in chains of misery". </span>

The correct answer is C.

Through this excerpt, the author wants to show how slavery has affected negatively a great part of the world's population. He says that it has "cast a sad shade upon the world" and that it bounds people through "chains of darkness" and "chains of misery".

Make a story using these words.
marysya [2.9K]
When I was younger, Maryam, a girl who lived next door to me was rather affable. It was easy talking to her because she showed enthusiasm in everything I did. Maryam was three years older than me and had recently lost her elder sister, who died in a terrible car accident. The loss of her sister deeply affected Maryam, and her character transformed immensely. Previously being a vivacious girl, she was now lethargic, sitting at one place doing nothing. She procrastinated with everything. One day, I aspired her to try out something new instead of sitting around and doing nothing. This pushed a trigger in her memories, and she recalled her halcyon days of childhood. She laughed at the memory of her elder sister, whom everyone had loved because she was down-to-earth and not haughty.
