Read the passage, then answer the question that follows. no one could have seen it at the time, but the invention of beet sugar was not just a challenge to cane. it was a hint—just a glimpse, like a twist that comes about two thirds of the way through a movie—that the end of the age of sugar was in sight. for beet sugar showed that in order to create that perfect sweetness you did not need slaves, you did not need plantations, in fact you did not even need cane. beet sugar was a foreshadowing of what we have today: the age of science, in which sweetness is a product of chemistry, not whips. in 1854 only 11 percent of world sugar production came from beets. by 1899 the percentage had risen to about 65 percent. and beet sugar was just the first challenge to cane. by 1879 chemists discovered saccharine—a laboratory-created substance that is several hundred times sweeter than natural sugar. today the sweeteners used in the foods you eat may come from corn (high-fructose corn syrup), from fruit (fructose), or directly from the lab (for example, aspartame, invented in 1965, or sucralose—splenda—created in 1976). brazil is the land that imported more africans than any other to work on sugar plantations, and in brazil the soil is still perfect for sugar. cane grows in brazil today, but not always for sugar. instead, cane is often used to create ethanol, much as corn farmers in america now convert their harvest into fuel. –sugar changed the world, marc aronson and marina budhos how does this passage support the claim that sugar was tied to the struggle for freedom? it shows that the invention of beet sugar created competition for cane sugar. it shows that technology had a role in changing how we sweeten our foods. it shows that the beet sugar trade provided jobs for formerly enslaved workers. it shows that sweeteners did not need to be the product of sugar plantations and slavery.

Ineed is this a good summary for unit 1 lesson 7 draft the summary for the odyssey part 1, the odyssey part 2, the odyssey part 3, or orpheus and eurydice. remember to use your own words and to focus only on important information. orpheus, ancient greek legendary hero endowed with superhuman musical skills. he became the patron of a religious movement based on sacred writings said to be his own. traditionally, orpheus was the son of a muse and oeagrus, a king of thrace. according to some legends, apollo gave orpheus his first lyre. orpheus’s singing and playing were so beautiful that animals and even trees and rocks moved about him in dance. orpheus joined the expedition of the argonauts, saving them from the music of the sirens by playing his own, more powerful music. on his return, he married eurydice, who was soon killed by a snakebite. overcome with grief, orpheus ventured himself to the land of the dead to attempt to bring eurydice back to life. with his singing and playing he charmed the ferryman charon and the dog cerberus, guardians of the river styx. hades set one condition, however: upon leaving the land of death, both orpheus and eurydice were forbidden to look back. the couple climbed up toward the opening into the land of the living, and orpheus, seeing the sun again, turned back to share his delight with eurydice. in that moment, she disappeared. a famous version of the story was related by virgil in georgics, book iv. orpheus himself was later killed by the women of thrace. the motive and manner of his death vary in different accounts, but the earliest known, that of aeschylus, says that they were maenads urged by dionysus to tear him to pieces in a bacchic orgy because he preferred the worship of the rival god apollo. his head, still singing, with his lyre, floated to lesbos, where an oracle of orpheus was established. the head prophesied until the oracle became more famous than that of apollo at delphi, at which time apollo himself bade the orphic oracle stop. the dismembered limbs of orpheus were gathered up and buried by the muses. his lyre they had placed in the heavens as a constellation. the story of orpheus was transformed and provided with a happy ending in the medieval english romance of sir orfeo. the character of orpheus appears in numerous works, including operas by claudio monteverdi , christoph gluck, and jacques offenbach; jean cocteau’s drama and film orphée; and brazilian director marcel camus’s film black orpheus. if you think it needs plz feel free to tell !
