Answer:

It provides background on how a family from Russia got into the sugar business.

Explanation:

The book <em>Sugar Changed the World: A Story of Magic, Spice, Slavery, Freedom, and Science </em>tells about the development of the sugar business, starting from its origins in New Guinea in 7000 B.C. to the 21st century and production of ethanol. An important topic in the book is a blood trail this industry left - the deaths of countless African slaves forced into sugar production.

This particular excerpt tells a story about how an ancestor of one Russian family entered the sugar business as a serf, a farmer bound to his lord's land, which he works on.

Guys I need the know what is the best counterpoint for using a smartphone is bad for your eyes?
Travka [436]

Digital devices, smartphones included, emit what we call the blue light. It has a wavelength between 380 to 470 nm. This is the only light that can penetrate the retina of the eyes. Hence, prolonged exposure to blue light, especially during at night, will cause damage to the retina resulting to sleep disorders or worst, cataracts.

Read the passage from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
loris [4]

Answer:

Utterson is conflicted about his attitude toward Jekyll.

Explanation:

Utterson represents the perfect Victorian gentleman. He consistently seeks to preserve order and decorum. Even when he suspects his friend Jekyll of criminal activities such as blackmail or the sheltering of a murderer, he prefers to sweep what he has learned under the rug. When he is summoned to Jekyll’s home Utterson continues to look for an explanation that preserves reason. He desperately searches for excuses not to take any drastic steps to interfere with Jekyll’s life.
