Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. And yet, for all the hardships and prejudice, most Indians decided to stay in the

colonies even after their contracts ended. By the end of the 1800s, only a quarter of the indentures sailed back to India after their five years were over. Sometimes this was because they were still too poor. Others told tales of returning only to be spurned by their villages for having broken caste or to be preyed upon by relatives who stole their money. Most of those who stayed in the New World, though, chose to do so because it offered a new life. And in the late 1800s, the authorities began to make a new offer to Indian workers. If they remained in the Caribbean, they could get a small plot of land of their own. After putting in their time in sugar, they could begin to farm for themselves.
Which goal does this passage address?

the goal of explaining why the majority of Indians stayed in the colonies the goal of showing why Indians were rejected by their home villages the goal of showing the prejudice Indians faced in the Caribbean the goal of explaining the terms of the Indians’ indenture contracts

Examine this painting which depicts the scene from the first half of Antigone in which Antigone comes upon her brother Polyneice
Free_Kalibri [48]

The painting gives us a concrete, visual image of the horrible conditions in which Polyneices’s corpse was left to rot. It also shows us the conditions in which Antigone stepped out of her home to give her brother an honorable burial and is testament to her courage and her determination to do the right thing. Greek women lived very sheltered lives, and for a Greek woman to step out of her house all by herself in what appears to be the dead of the night was quite noteworthy.

The play provides a context for the painting. It fills in background details and tells us why Antigone has to take such extreme measures to bury Polyneices. It gives us the reason for Polyneices’s death and also tells us why he was denied a rightful burial.

This scene is pivotal to the play because it sets in motion a series of fatal developments. The main conflict of the play is Antigone’s defiance of the king’s orders to bury her brother. In the painting, we see Antigone coming upon the corpse of her brother, with the likely intention of burying him. This act of hers seals her fate and condemns her to death, as required by Creon’s order.

If you wanted a career in journalism, would it be a good idea to start a blog detailing local news? Explain the benefits and dra
notsponge [240]
There is conflicting evidence on the overall impact of digital platforms on news and journalistic content.
 It appears some negative effects – such as shorter, more emotive content – can be attributed to platforms; others – like pressures of the 24/7 news cycle – are largely an aspect of digitisation.
 Two aspects present specific future risks: sudden algorithmic changes which can severely disrupt conditions under which news is produced; and the potential devaluation of journalism through extractive summaries.
 Digital platforms can now be regarded as key participants within the broader framework for news media; they may not be publishers, but their role as distributors is increasingly hybrid in nature.
 As participants within this news media framework, digital platforms have a responsibility not to harm the public benefit provided by news and journalistic content; there may also be ways to promote it. Sry if this doesn’t help
