Answer:

It provides background on how a family from Russia got into the sugar business.

Explanation:

The book <em>Sugar Changed the World: A Story of Magic, Spice, Slavery, Freedom, and Science </em>tells about the development of the sugar business, starting from its origins in New Guinea in 7000 B.C. to the 21st century and production of ethanol. An important topic in the book is a blood trail this industry left - the deaths of countless African slaves forced into sugar production.

This particular excerpt tells a story about how an ancestor of one Russian family entered the sugar business as a serf, a farmer bound to his lord's land, which he works on.

This is the line from Edgar Alan Poe's "The Fall of the House of Usher". Full sentence goes like this:

lianna [129]

Answer:

One of the central theme is "Reputation".

Explanation:

The Crucible  by Arthur Miller is story about John Proctor who confesses to all his crimes in the court. He accepts his affair with Abigail and even for doing witchcraft. But, at the end he says "I have given you my soul; leave me my name!”. By this he meant that a person takes his whole life to build a reputation in the society. So, he did not want to tarnish his good name and reputation by signing the confession. He said that he has confessed all but will not sign the document.

Several characters including Abigial, Parris, Rebecca protect their reputations in the story.
