Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
Well known in London social and literary circles during his lifetime, Sancho achieved lasting fame with the posthumous publication of his Letters of the Late Ignatius Sancho, an African. The 158 letters collected in this volume cover a wide range of subjects—including literature, politics, and race—and offer Sancho's unique perspective as a former slave and one of the only middle-class Black men living in eighteenth-century London. Sancho's letters also reveal him to be a man of generosity, warmth, and humor who enjoyed the company of friends from many different stations in life. In his own day, Sancho was thought of as “the extraordinary Negro,” and to eighteenth-century British opponents of the slave trade he became a symbol of the humanity of Africans, something that at the time was disputed by many.

The correct answer is The Tempest.
The Tempest is a play written by William Shakespeare in 16th century England. Although it may not seem as a criticism of England and its politics of imperialism, if you really think about it, it actually is. It tells the story of Prospero who visits an island, takes control over it, and imposes his own culture and politics over its people, which is exactly what England did to other countries.
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Which is the best paraphrase of the passage?
It's always cloudy where the Men of Winter live.
It's always misty where the Men of Winter live.
It's always dark where the Men of Winter live.
It's always sunny where the Men of Winter live.
Answer:
The best paraphrase of the passage is:
C. It's always dark where the Men of Winter live.
Explanation:
This question can be quite tricky, and here is why: the words "mist" and "cloud" are explicitly written in the passage. Of course, our first impulse is to imagine a cloudy or misty place and to choose either option A or option B, or even both. However,<u> we need to keep on reading to fully understand the passage. Notice the speaker says, "Never the flaming eye of Helios lights on those men..." Helios is nothing more than the personification of the sun in Greek mythology. When he says its flaming eye never lights, he basically means his light never shines on those Men of Winter. No light means it is dark. It may be dark due to the excessive mist and clouds, but it is dark nonetheless because the light can't shine through. That is why letter C seems to be the best option.</u>
