Answer:

B) Both passages use facts and details to support the claim that sugar workers in different places used music to express themselves and relieve the pressures of brutal work.

Explanation:

According to the two passages from "Sugar Changed the World," the authors  claim that living under the extremely difficult conditions of the slavery system, enslaved young men were inspired to create new forms of music. Examples of these new forms of expression through music are jazz, bomba, maculelê and holehole bushi.

I would contend that the right answer is the B) Both passages use facts and details to support the claim that sugar workers in different places used music to express themselves and relieve the pressures of brutal work. The first paragraph particularly stresses the significant young age of the numerous men who were enslaved in sugar plantations in Louisiana, since, in the second paragraph, the author suggests the premise that jazz was born in that state precisely because of that ample population of male teenagers who needed to express themselves, voiced who they were, and, most importantly, survive, and jazz gave them the opportunity to do that. The author also points out that enslaved people in other areas equally resorted to music in order to have a voice and to remind themselves that they were human beings, not machinery. The other two paragraphs include specific folk songs that sugar workers, slaved or not, sang in order to mitigate the hardships of their new lives, far away from their homeland (Japan and various countries in Africa), and to find some solace.

Write sentences that include the form specified of the adjective given. 7. The superlative of good
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Seven

Don't get caught believing it is goodest. Good is irregular. Much as I like goodest, the answer is best.

Eight

only if you are using earnest as an adjective, can you have earnest in a comparative sense. earnester would be one choice. A better one in my opinion is more earnest.

Sam is more earnest than Albert.

Sam is earnester than Albert.

The spell check underlines earnester. I think it's right to do so. This is an example of tortured language.

Nine

Narrowest.

Ten

nicer.

Sam is nicer than Albert.

Which of the following sentences is written in active voice?
Lelechka [254]
Hm, are you sure you got the question right? Because all of the sentences are written in active voice! Active voice is essentially everything that is not in the passive voice, and I don't see any passive voice here.

Passive voice would be formed with subject+form of "to be" + past participle,

and we have no example of this. All of the sentences here are in active voice.
