Read the passage from utopia. They detest war as a very brutal thing, and which, to the reproach of human nature, is more practised by men than by any sort of beasts. they, in opposition to the sentiments of almost all other nations, think that there is nothing more inglorious than that glory that is gained by war; and therefore, though they accustom themselves daily to military exercises and the discipline of war, in which not only their men, but their women likewise, are trained up, that, in cases of necessity, they may not be quite useless, yet they do not rashly engage in war, unless it be either to defend themselves or their friends from any unjust aggressors, or, out of good nature or in compassion, assist an oppressed nation in shaking off the yoke of tyranny. Which quotation from the passage best summarizes the central idea? a) they detest war as a very brutal thing, and which, to the reproach of human nature, is more practised by men than by any sort of beasts. b) they, in opposition to the sentiments of almost all other nations, think that there is nothing more inglorious than that glory that is gained by war . .c). . they accustom themselves daily to military exercises and the discipline of war, in which not only their men, but their women likewise, are trained up . .d). . they do not rashly engage in war, unless it be either to defend themselves or their friends from any unjust aggressors, or, out of good nature .

Read the passage from sugar changed the world. for an african, whether you were sent to the caribbean or south america, you were now part of the sugar machine. and it did not much matter where your ship landed. you could be working the fertile fields of brazil or the hills of jamaica; the brutal cycle of making sugar was much the same. how does the use of the word machine support the authors' claim in this passage? its negative connotation indicates that enslaved people had to work like robots instead of human beings. its negative denotation indicates that some people preferred handmade sugar over factory-produced sugar. its positive connotation indicates that plantations ran efficiently and produced huge amounts of sugar. its positive denotation indicates that it was easier for enslaved people to make sugar with machines.
