Answer:
Person versus nature
Explanation:
"A fierce rain had swollen the middle fork of the Kentucky river."
"The brown water overflowed its muddy banks."
And the epilogue - "Not even a flooded river could stand between Mary Breckinridge and the hospital her patients needed."
The text provides evidence of her going up against the forces of nature rather than the other options.
The correct answer is A. In the Middle Ages, spices that are now ordinary were rare imports from faraway places.
Explanation
The excerpt talks about traders who traded in black pepper grown in southwestern India, which meant too long a journey to bring these products to Europe. In the first place they had to be transported to Arabia, and from there to Syria where European merchants acquired it to take it to the different kingdoms of Europe as the author mentions when saying that "From India the pepper was shipped across to Arabia, where camel caravans would carry it all the way to Syria. The Italians could purchase enough pepper in Syria to carry with them to the next Champagne fair". According to the above, the correct answer is A. In the Middle Ages, spices that are now ordinary were rare imports from faraway places.
The sentence in which the underlined infinitive phrase functions as a subject is the last one - to quickly move large groups of people is the purpose of public transportation.
<em>To quickly move </em>is the infinitive phrase, and it is a subject.
