2. Sugar cane plants are becoming much more vigorous, thereby enabling supply of sugar.

3. Scientists are working tirelessly to discover stronger genes.

4. There are still species yet to be discovered which when discovered will improve the supply of sugar.

Explanation:

From the excerpt, it's clear that people started using the wild sugar canes for roofing and fencing. But soon, sugar cane became vital to human as it became vital ingredients in confectioneries and other things. Diseases started attacking the plant; scientists rose up to the challenge to find species that resist diseases. A team in France discovered a particular species that was resistant to rust.

The sugar industry looks positive because more species are yet to be discovered which will improve supply of sugar cane.

What is the theme of not waving but drowning, by stevie smith?
erastova [34]

Not Waving but Drowning Theme of Death. You'd think that there couldn't be a clearer distinction than the one between life and death, but "Not Waving but Drowning" goes out of its way to muddy the water, so to speak. The focus, after all, is a talking corpse who just won't shut up even though the living can't hear him.

What was probably one of the “crucial flaws” in voting system before 1845
jonny [76]

A crucial flaw was that the Constitution gave autonomy to each State to determine the requirements to vote. In this way the states limited the participation of people in the elections and generally gave the right to vote to those men who prove to own some land or pay taxes. Women were excluded from the elections, for which the voting population was reduced to 6% approximately.
