The correct answer is the first option “For an African, whether you were sent to the Caribbean or South America, you were now part of the sugar machine.”. Taken from the book “<em>Sugar Changed the World: A Story of Magic, Spice, Slavery, Freedom, and Science</em>” by Marc Aronson and Marina Budhos (2010), this excerpt best states the main point or claim of the text that the author narrates: the operation of the sugar machine. In other words, this could be the <u>thesis statement</u>. The rest of the options are <u>supporting sentences</u> that develop the actual operation of the sugar machine: how someone may be part of another group, how someone may work according to the ground, and how overseers supervise someone’s work.

This excerpt is from Jonathan Swift's (1667 – 1745) "A Modest Proposal"<em> - A Modest Proposal for preventing the children of poor people in Ireland, from being a burden on their parents or country, and for making them beneficial to the publick.</em>
Option C is also similar to Option D, but option D better explain the situations.
From this excerpt and according to the options provided we can infer that the authors (Jonathan Swift) wants to stress on the importance of helping those children who are burden on their poor parents and country. He wants to say that this would be a real service to the public, and one which should really be appreciated.
In another sense there is also a satire in this piece of the excerpt in the usage and stress on words "fair, cheap and easy". Jonathan Swift is satirizing government's economy-centered policies. Government wants a fair, cheap and easy solution of issues which should be government's priority to solve at every cost. In fact this point of view of satire in this excerpt is more correct than the options provided.
