hurry! read the passage from sugar changed the world. we all crave sweetness, now more than ever since there are so many ways to satisfy that need. and there are still sugar plantations where the work is brutal. in places like the dominican republic (haiti's island neighbor), some sugar work is not very different from what it was for marina's indian ancestors in british guiana: hard, poorly paid labor by people who are often mistreated. but for most of us, chemists have more to say about how we satisfy that taste than do overseers. when sugar is in the headlines, critics speak about how much of it we eat, not who picked the crop. doctors warn that young people are gaining too much weight from eating sugary snacks; parents learn that kids who drink too many sweet sodas can cycle between manic sugar "highs" and grinding sugar "crashes." no one worries about where the sweetness comes from. our diet was transformed by the age of sugar, but that era is over. which statement is the most objective summary of the passage? craving sweetness leads to developing poor habits around food. new sources of sweetness use better techniques than the old sources did. chemists conduct work that is not interesting to much of the public. sugar cane is no longer the main source of sweetness for most people.

Read the excerpt from act 1 of a doll's house. helmer: nora! [goes up to her and takes her playfully by the ear.] the same little featherhead! suppose, now, that i borrowed fifty pounds today, and you spent it all in the christmas week, and then on new year's eve a slate fell on my head and killed me, and— nora: [putting her hands over his mouth]. oh! don't say such horrid things. helmer: still, suppose that happened, —what then? nora: if that were to happen, i don't suppose i should care whether i owed money or not. helmer: yes, but what about the people who had lent it? nora: they? who would bother about them? i should not know who they were. helmer: that is like a woman! but seriously, nora, you know what i think about that. no debt, no borrowing. there can be no freedom or beauty about a home life that depends on borrowing and debt. we two have kept bravely on the straight road so far, and we will go on the same way for the short time longer that there need be any struggle. nora: [moving towards the stove]. as you , torvald. how does the interaction between helmer and nora advance the plot? nora realizes that helmer will completely disapprove of her having borrowed money, so she has to continue to keep it a secret from him. nora realizes that she and helmer have the same ideas about financial issues, and the conversation brings them closer together later in the play. helmer realizes that nora is more responsible with money than he originally thought, and he trusts her more with finances later in the play. nora realizes that helmer knows a lot more about borrowing and lending, and she will seek his input later when she needs it.
