Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. As sugar planters fled from the revolution in Haiti, some moved to Cuba's Oriente

Province, others to North America—to Louisiana. By the time the Haitian plantation owners and overseers reached New Orleans, abolitionists were pressing to end the African slave trade. The tragedy is that this movement to end slavery did nothing to improve conditions in Louisiana. In fact, the state that slaves called Lousy Anna was the very worst place for an African in America; it was the Caribbean all over again—a death sentence. In every single American slave state, the population of enslaved people kept rising even after the slave trade was abolished. That was because enough enslaved children were born, lived, and grew to become adults. There was just one exception to this rule: Louisiana, where the native-born enslaved population kept dropping. Sugar was a killer. Unlike the Caribbean, Louisiana has cold snaps. That put an additional pressure on the sugar harvest. Not only did the slaves need to harvest the cane in perfect rhythm with the grinding mills, but the entire crop had to be cut down between mid-October and December. This pace only increased when growers installed improved, steam-powered mills. People needed to work faster than the weather and to keep pace with machines. Which details do the authors include to support the claim in this passage? Select two options. information on enslaved populations in different American states information on weather conditions in Louisiana and the Caribbean information on how conditions for enslaved people improved in Louisiana examples of individual planters who fled Louisiana for Cuba examples of why cold snaps made it easier to harvest sugarcane Mark this and return

The correct answer is: “information on weather conditions in Louisiana and the Caribbean”. 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), the details included about the weather conditions in Louisiana and the Caribbean are used to support the claim that “<u>sugar was a killer</u>”. As the text tells, <em>sugar was a killer</em> because of the cold snaps in Louisiana. The authors narrate the details that explain the claim (sugar was a killer). For instance, they narrate that the slaves needed to harvest the cane in perfect rhythm with the grinding mills, and that the entire crop had to be cut down between mid-October and December, and that people needed to work faster than the weather and to keep pace with machines.

Batay sa akda, bakit itinuturing ng mga edukado na si rizal ang tunat na kaaway ng wikang filipino?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Si Rizal ay edukado na mas mahal ang banyagang wika. Ang patunay, lahat ng makabuluhang akda niya ay nakasulat sa Espanyol. Kung buhay daw ngayon si Rizal, sumulat na ito sa Ingles.

May pahayag ba si Rizal laban sa sariling wika? Sa wakas, iyon ang kaibhan niya sa mga edukasyon ngayon na ayaw tanggapin ang bisang magpalaya ng wikang Filipino. Sa mga edukado ngayon na kahit baluktot ang Ingles ay nagmamalaki na Ingles ang dapat maging wikang pambansa at wika ng edukasyon. Sila ang mga tunay na kaaway na wikang Filipino bukod sa sila ang tunay na kaaway ni Rizal.

Read the incorrect sentence. Write three to five sentences explaining what kind of run-on sentence it is and how to revise it. M
shepuryov [24]
One way to fix that sentence is to switch around the two phrases used; 'My mother and father are both scientists' and 'It must have been my destiny to become interested in biology.'

It must have been my destiny to spark an interest in Biology, as my mother and father are both scientists.

That's a way to fix that sentence used in your question.

Also, 'destiny' was spelled incorrectly.

This sentence may seem run on if you don't place a conjunction between the two phrases, or if the phrases are not switched.

If the sentence is to be used with a conjunction, it may end up like this....

My mother and father are both scientists, so it must have been my destiny to become interested in biology.

Or, you may just use a period, to change the two phrases used into two separate sentences.

Like this;

My mother and father are both scientists. For that reason, it must have been my destiny to become interested in biology.

ALSO, as you can see above, I have added a few words to the last sentence. Those three words, 'For that reason', give closure to the two sentences.

Hope this helped!
