Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. Eventually, I visited Guyana to find out the fate of our house. As our car passed

old sugar estates, and I saw the palm trees bending against the wide sky, the lush cane growing in thick, shiny rows, the villages, which were really parcels of land surrounding the important estates, I realized that sugar had been the entire reason for this country's existence. Every now and then an old boiling house—where the cane is processed into crystals, molasses, and rum—would show itself on the flat landscape, cropping up like a hulking ghost. How do the details about Guyana reveal the author’s purpose? They show that the author wants to persuade readers that her family was important. They show that the author wants to inform readers by describing the old sugar estates. They show that the author wants to entertain readers with stories about the plantations. They show that the author wants to inform readers about the fate of the family’s house.

The correct answer is "They show that the author wants to inform readers by describing the old sugar estates."

By describing the old sugar states, the author was able to emphasize how important sugar canes were to the country. The crops and old boiling houses are the dominating factor of the excerpt.

1. You have learned a little bit about many of the characters in The Canterbury Tales, and you have learned a lot about the Wife
Tanya [424]
<span>Squire With him there was his son, a youthful squire, A lover and a lusty bachelor, With locks well curled, as if they'd laid in press. Some twenty years of age he was, I guess. In stature he was of an average length, Wondrously active, aye, and great of strength. He'd ridden sometime with the cavalry In Flanders, in Artois, and Picardy, And borne him well within that little space In hope to win thereby his lady's grace. Prinked out he was, as if he were a mead, All full of fresh-cut flowers white and red. Singing he was, or fluting, all the day; He was as fresh as is the month of May. Short was his gown, with sleeves both long and wide. Well could be sit on horse, and fairly ride. He could make songs and words thereto indite, Joust, and dance too, as well as sketch and write. So hot he loved that, while night told her tale, He slept no more than does a nightingale. Courteous he, and humble, willing and able, And carved before his father at the table.</span>
