Question

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. On a plantation there were large groups of workers—between fifty and several hundred. The mill was right next to the crop, so that growing and grinding took place in the same spot. And all the work was governed by extremely tight, rigid discipline. The Muslims began to put together the rules for this new kind of farming. Both they and the Christians experimented with using their slaves to run the plantations. At first many of the slaves working sugar plantations in the Mediterranean were Russians, or anyone captured in war. But even all this careful organization did not solve the second problem with sugar. What evidence from the passage best supports the inference that making sugar was difficult? Select two options.
a. "growing and grinding took place in the same spot"
b. "the work was governed by extremely tight, rigid discipline"
c. "Muslims began to put together the rules for this new kind of farming"
d. "experimented with using their slaves to run the plantations"
e. “many of the slaves working sugar plantations in the Mediterranean were Russians”
f. "careful organization did not solve the second problem with sugar"

Answer 2

The best two options are

b. "the work was governed by extremely tight, rigid discipline"

f. "careful organization did not solve the second problem with sugar"

Option B suggests that the process for the sugar cane plantation had to be difficult, because it is so regulated. (hence the discipline for the workers)

Option F indicates that there are still other issues included, issues that even careful organization and discipline cannot solve.
