Question:

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.

In France, there was no Parliament or Congress; no one expected to be able to protect his rights by voting. But even in the land of King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette, the people demanded to be heard. In July 1789, Parisians stormed the Bastille, the hated prison where the king locked up anyone he disliked. And in August, the newly defined National Assembly issued the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen. "Men are born and remain free and equal in rights,” it announced to the world. Here it was again, Pierre Lemerre’s phrase, Jefferson’s phrase, the principle Clarkson was fighting for—indeed, he came to France to support the new government. And yet the Declaration also said that "property is an inviolable and sacred right.” So what were slaves? Equal human beings, or goods that belonged to their owners? Human rights versus property rights. That argument goes on today as, for example, we debate how closely to regulate coal mining. Is it best to let owners set rules, which is likely to give all of us cheaper coal, or to have the government set standards, which is more likely to protect workers and the environment? In France, one side argued that slaves must be freed. The other said that to change anything in the sugar islands would invite slave revolts, help France's rivals, and thus hurt the nation.

Which historical events do the authors include to support the claim in this passage? Select two options.

A) Details of Marie Antoinette’s actions at the Bastille

B) Specific details about the modern sugar industry

C) A quotation from the Declaration of Rights of Man and the Citizen

D) A summary of political changes related to human rights in France

E) A description of revolts in the sugar islands

Answer:

The correct answer is C)

Explanation:

The passage depicts the argument between two opposing ideas about the freedom of people and slavery.

The authors cited the declaration of rights of man and the citizen in the 5th and 7th sentences.

If Humans were born free and entitled to their freedom and if they were also entitled to keep their properties, the question was what happens to slaves?

Slaves were properties owned by people.

The challenge with the opposing ideas was that on one side of the argument, there was an inherent assumption that slaves were not humans but properties.

Cheers!

melomori [17]

Answer:

when I Was Your Man by bruno mars

Explanation:

You’re Mines Still - yung bleu

drivers license

Same bed but it feels just a little bit bigger now

Our song on the radio but it don't sound the same

When our friends talk about you, all it does is just tear me down

'Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name

It all just sounds like ooh, ooh ooh hoo hoo

Mm, too young, too d*mb to realize

That I should have bought you flowers

And held your hand

Should have gave you all my hours

When I had the chance

Take you to every party 'cause all you wanted to do was dance

Now my baby's dancing

But she's dancing with another man

My pride, my ego, my needs, and my selfish ways

Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life

Now I never, never get to clean up the mess I made, oh

And it haunts me every time I close my eyes

It all just sounds like ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh

Mm, too young, too d*mb to realize

That I should have bought you flowers

And held your hand

Should have gave you all my hours

When I had the chance

Take you to every party 'cause all you wanted to do was dance

Now my baby's dancing

But she's dancing with another man

Although it hurts

I'll be the first to say that I was wrong

Oh, I know I'm probably much too late

To try and apologize for my mistakes

But I just want you to know

I hope he buys you flowers

I hope he holds your hand

Give you all his hours

When he has the chance

Take you to every party

'Cause I remember how much you loved to dance

Do all the things I should have done

When I was your man

Do all the things I should have done

When I was your man
