Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. The Indian coolies and the ex-slaves, who resented these newcomers flooding into

the colonies and driving down wages, were instant rivals. This was convenient for the planters—who were skilled at the game of divide and rule. The planters lumped their workers into two distinct but equally nasty stereotypes: Former slaves were described as lazy, whereas Indians were called meek, docile children. "You may have work and plenty of it for a black man and a coloured man, and they will not do it,” claimed planter W. Alleyne Ireland. He conveniently ignored the fact that the ex-slaves wanted to work their own land, not labor for their former owners. The overseers praised the Indians' meekness but also held them in contempt. The Indian, one overseer claimed, "possesses the low, cringing and abject habit common to his nationality." What evidence do the authors include to support the central idea that Indian workers and formerly enslaved people became rivals? anecdotal evidence that Indian workers and formerly enslaved people were paid wages on different scales empirical evidence that planters ignored the fact that formerly enslaved people wanted to work their own land empirical evidence that planters tried to pit formerly enslaved people against Indian workers to the planters’ advantage logical evidence that Indian workers and formerly enslaved people did not get along with one another because wages went down

The author includes logical evidence that Indian workers and formerly enslaved people didn't get along because wages went down.  

In the passage, it states:

"The Indian coolies and the ex-slaves, who resented the newcomers flooding the colonies and driving down wages, were instant rivals."

In this case, the Indian coolies are the newcomers and the ex-slaves are the ones resenting them. Therefore, the ex-slaves resent the Indian coolies because they were driving down wages.

The correct answer is logical evidence that Indian workers and formerly enslaved people did not get along with one another because wages went down.

The excerpt itself describes how the ex-slaves were resented the Indian coolies because when they arrived, the wages started to go down. This situation was not convenient for neither the ex-slaves nor the Indian coolies. They became rivals.

What line does squealer repeat throughout the story to get the animals agree to his positions?
zepelin [54]

A classic in English Literature, Animal Farm written by Orwell is a critique of the revolution in Russia. Orwell was a staunch believer of socialist ideals. He believed that the Russians understood these in an opposite way.

Explanation:

In this novella, Orwell wrote his ideas and thoughts of how few perspectives on certain decisions can make a historic change, can have a historic impact through a group of pigs that congregate and stand for their rights against 'brainworkers' as the pigs called them.

Orwell always believed that these differences in communities, creed and authoritative occupations will have a negative impact on a democratic economy where socialist ideals are said to be followed.

Squealer, the Porker, is shown as a person who keeps reminding animals of their experiences and situations that make them recollect moments which can make them brave and stand up for their rights. He has an influence on others' minds.
