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.

Which sentence best uses reflection to conclude the essay?
Serga [27]

"The situation made me think," can lead you into the conclusion that the answer your looking for is in that sentence. Usually when reflecting you can say, "I thought back to," or "I thought about".

TDLR; the answer is, "The situation made me think about how I..."

Hope this helps!!
