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

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".

Have you tried refreshing or restarting your computer. You can also do the same for your WiFi box. I’m assuming you are using a WiFi box you’ve gotten from school so just inform them of the problems your having and tell them everything you tried to fix it and they’ll send a new one. I had the same issue with mine

How does Epstein develop his central idea that genetics plays an important role in athletic ability over the course this excerpt
Veseljchak [2.6K]

<em>The Sports Gene </em>was written by David Epstein and published in 2013.

This book supports the idea that sports success has to do with both 'nature and nurture', that both genetics and training are highly influential, but also that each of them cannot bring what the other does.

The more a person practises, the better he/she will be. But up to a point. No one can achieve something that his/her body is not biologically or genetically prepared to do. This idea is in disagreement with other authors such as Anders Ericsson, who supported that training mattered more than innate talents and that could offset genetic inclinations.
