I am person who easily gets excited and disappointed.Even small things like watching a new movie in cinema or going out to restaurant gets me excited.
But here I would like to talk about something that made me really, really excited.It was the time when I went to an amusement park with my niece and nephew.My niece and nephew live in Canada and they visit India very rarely.
Two years ago, they had come to India with my sister for the summer vacations.
They love going to amusement park but because of summer heat I didn’t want to take them.It was a really hot summer and the temperatures were touching 40-45 degree Celsius.I was feeling very upset that I had to turn down their requests for taking them to the park every day.But one night it rained, and the temperatures came down a bit.
I decided I would get no better opportunity and so I immediately booked the entry tickets to the park online for the next day.
But I wanted to surprise my niece and nephew and thus I didn’t tell them that we were going to the park.
On the journey as well I kept them busy talking with me and hence, they never noticed that we were going there.
I was excited because I knew how thrilled they would be once we reached the park and they were elated.
They never expected it and it came as a huge surprise.
For the whole day, we tried different rides.
My nephew is a bit young and he was afraid, but my nine-year-old niece wanted to try rides even I was bit afraid of.
In the evening, they both gave a huge hug and thanked me for the surprise.
I can never express how I felt then.
I can just say that it was one of most memorable days of my life.
I am planning for another such surprise when they visit me next time.

Answer:
Well, maybe if we had more information about the question/answers than we would be able to help.
Explanation:
Answer: The missing passage to this question is "Sugar is different from honey. It offers a stronger sweet flavor, and like steel or plastic, it had to be invented. In the Age of Sugar, Europeans bought a product made thousands of miles away that was less expensive than the honey from down the road. That was possible only because sugar set people in motion all across the world—millions of them as slaves, in chains; a few in search of their fortunes. A perfect taste made possible by the most brutal labor: That is the dark story of sugar."
<em>The details in this passage support the author's purpose is " to help inform the readers about the reasons why sugar was so inexpensive and why the sugar industry was dependant on the use of slavery.</em>
Explanation:
In the book, the process of how sugar was made by slaves is described in full detail. The slaves were abused and were chained together so that the European men could make a large profit without paying for the labor. Honey was, and is still expensive, but was a natural product while sugar had to be invented and processed to be eaten and used for medicinal purposes. In those times, only the wealthy were able to buy this type processed sugar. Many slaves died while working on the sugar plantations, they were beaten if they did not work fast. They also worked all day and way into the night without breaks. Many men became millionaires off the blood and sweat of slaves.
This passage is from the book "Sugar Changed the World: A Story of Magic, Spice, Slavery, Freedom, and Science." This book was written both Marina Budhos and Marc Aronson in the year 2010.
