Read the two passages from sugar changed the world
which statement best explains how the authors develop
their claim across the two passages?
knowing that their slaves were likely to die by the time they

men in their late teens, on average, the men purchased in
louisiana were an inch taller than the people bought in the
other slave states. those teenagers made up seven to eight
out of every ten slaves brought to america's sugar hell. the
others were younger teenage girls, around fifteen to sixteen
years old. their job, for the rest of their short lives, was to
have children. elizabeth ross hite knew that, for sure, "all
de master wanted was fo dem wimmen to hav children."
enslaved children would be put to work or sold. the
overseer s. b. raby explained, "rachel had a 'fine boy' last

deficiencies there may be in the cane crop." that is, a
master could sell any slaves who managed to live, if he
needed more money than he could make from sugar.
