Answer:

Escaping slaves had to find their way north. Northern states such as New York and Massachusetts had strong abolitionist societies and benevolent groups — both black and white — that would help escaping slaves. The slaves' final goal was Canada, north of the U.S. border. Slavery was not permitted there, and American laws that allowed people to capture runaway slaves had no effect.

People trying to escape slavery had many clues they could rely on to find out where "north" actually was. They knew moss usually grew on the north sides of trees. They also observed that migrating birds flew north in the summer.

One of the best clues they could use to find north was to locate the North Star. The North Star is also called Polaris. Unlike other stars, it never changes position. It always points to the north.

When making inferences about the author’s purpose, what should you use to support your analysis? I. evidence from the story II.
Zanzabum

The correct answer is I and III only.


When you read a text and want to decide what the author's purpose for writing it was, then you need to take a look at the evidence he or she presented, as well as whether or not that evidence was appropriate. What is irrelevant here, however, is how fast or how slow you read the text - that has nothing to do with the author's purpose.
