- Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World! In Brazil, when word came that the harvest was about to begin, a priest came to bless the mill-and the workers. The blessing was like the whistle at the start of a race, for now everything sped up Slaves were given long, sharp machetes , which would be their equipment-but for some also their weapons -until the harvest was done,The cutters worked brutal seemingly endless shifts during the harvest-for the hungry, mills crushed cane from four in the afternoon to ten the next morning , stopping only in the midday heat. Slaves had to make sure there was just enough cane to feed the turning wheels during every one of those eighteen hours. How does the authors'choice of hungry to describe the mills best support the claim? by showing the relentless pace that enslaved people had to keep during the harvest by showing that the mills began to be very productive after the priest's blessing by showing that enslaved people had to feed the mills every day until there was no cane left by showing that the mills were the best pieces of equipment to produce sugar
- Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. The Muslims worked out a new form of farming to handle sugar, which came to be called the sugar plantation. A plantation was not a new technology but, rather, a new way of organizing planting growing, cutting, and refining a crop. On a regular farm there may be cows, pigs and chickens; fields of grain; orchards filled with fruit -many different kinds of foods to eat or sell.By contrast, the plantation had only one purpose: to create a single product that could be grown, ground, boiled dried, and sold to distant markets. Since one cannot live on sugar,the crop grown on plantations could not even feed the people who harvested it. Never before in human history had farms been run this way, as machines designed to satisfy just one craving of buyers who could be thousands of miles away. Which text evidence best supports the authors' claim about plantations? ) "The Muslims worked out a new form of farming to handle sugar, which came to be called the sugar plantation." "By contrast, the plantation had only one purpose: to create a single product that could be grown, ground, boiled, dried, and sold to distant markets." "Since one cannot live on sugar, the crop grown on plantations could not even feed the people who harvested it." "The mill was right next to the crop so that growing and grinding took place in the same spot."
