Which line in this excerpt from a persuasive essay about conserving energy best uses logical appeal?
Do you regularly forget to switch off the lights when you leave a room? Is your computer always on standby because you’re too lazy to unplug it? The good news, if you can call it that, is that you are not alone. The bad news is that you, and millions of others on our planet, are draining the world of its energy resources. But luckily for us it’s not too late to fix this problem. Saving energy is easy and effortless. A few simple steps and conscious choices can help save the planet and also save on your power bills! Conserving energy is not a choice; it’s a necessity! Switch off the lights when you leave a room. Turn off and unplug your appliances when you’re not using them. You should also ensure that all your household appliances have strong Energy Star ratings. Energy Star-certified appliances use up to 20 percent less energy, which results in lower power bills. Start wearing sweaters instead of turning up the heat in winter. Open the windows in summer to cut down on the energy air conditioners consume. Taking these steps and making a few other conscious choices can help ensure that future generations will enjoy the same conveniences you take for granted today.

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.

The enslaved people on Saint Domingue were not merely fighting against the terrible conditions on the island. They were fighting for principles that they had learned from Europeans and Americans—from people similar to their own slave masters. The trio of great principles behind the French Revolution that began in 1789 consisted of "liberty, equality, fraternity" (brotherhood). As boats arrived in Saint Domingue from France, slaves learned that a revolution was going on in the name of human rights. Already, they'd been given a taste of great change because of a revolution closer to home. In 1779, a regiment of free blacks from Saint Domingue went to America to join in the fight for independence. They brought home with them the idea that "all men are created equal."

Two years after the meeting in Alligator Woods, on August 29, 1793, the leading French official on Saint Domingue realized that there was no point in opposing Toussaint and his armies. The slaves had freed themselves. And the following February, Paris agreed. The ideal of brotherhood announced by the revolutionaries of Paris finally included the sugar workers of Saint Domingue.

Which details do the authors include to support the claim in this passage? Select two options.

information about organizing the meeting in Alligator Woods
explanations of how revolutionary ideas spread to Saint Domingue
descriptions of the difficult conditions the enslaved people faced
examples of revolutionary ideas from other countries
specifics about how the English freed the enslaved people

ead the passage from Sugar Changed the World.

You could date a great change in the world to a visit one Madame Villeneuve made to France in 1714. That year, Pauline, an enslaved woman from the Caribbean, arrived in France as the personal servant of her mistress. When Madame Villeneuve set off from the coast to visit Paris, she left Pauline in a convent. The young woman spent her time studying with the nuns and went so far in her training that she asked to become a nun herself and remain in the convent. The nuns agreed, which enraged Madame Villeneuve. She rushed to a judge, demanding to have her property back. Was Pauline a free woman, a bride of Christ, or an item to be bought, sold, and warehoused when she was not in use?

Twenty-three years earlier, King Louis XIV had issued a set of rules that defined slavery as legal in the French sugar islands. But when two slaves managed to reach France, he freed them—saying they became free "as soon as they [touched] the soil" of France. The judges sided with Pauline—she was real to them, human, not a piece of property. For Pauline's judges, as for King Louis, slavery far off across the seas was completely different from enslaved individuals in France.

Slave owners fought back, arguing that owners should be able to list their slaves as property when they arrived in France and take them with them when they left. Though most parts of France agreed to this, law­makers in Paris hesitated. Pierre Lemerre the Younger made the case for the slaves. "All men are equal," he insisted in 1716—exactly sixty years before the Declaration of Independence.

To say that "all men are equal" in 1716, when slavery was flourishing in every corner of the world and most eastern Europeans themselves were farmers who could be sold along with the land they worked, was like announcing that there was a new sun in the sky. In the Age of Sugar, when slavery was more brutal than ever before, the idea that all humans are equal began to spread—toppling kings, overturning governments, transforming the entire world.

How do the details in the passage support the central idea?

They compare the end of slavery in the French colonies with the end of slavery in other colonies.
They provide details about the final few years of slavery in Europe and its many colonies.
They provide examples of how laws and attitudes about equality changed in France.
They explain why enslaved people entered convents in an attempt to gain their freedom.

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.

If you walked down Beekman Street in New York in the 1750s, you would come to a general store owned by Gerard Beekman—his family gave the street its name. The products on his shelves showed many of the ways sugar was linking the world. Beekman and merchants like him shipped flour, bread, corn, salted beef, and wood to the Caribbean. They brought back sugar, rum, molasses, limes, cocoa, and ginger. Simple enough; but this trade up and down the Atlantic coast was part of a much larger world system.

Textbooks talk about the Triangle Trade: Ships set out from Europe carrying fabrics, clothes, and simple manufactured goods to Africa, where they sold their cargoes and bought people. The enslaved people were shipped across the Atlantic to the islands, where they were sold for sugar. Then the ships brought sugar to North America, to be sold or turned into rum—which the captains brought back to Europe. But that neat triangle—already more of a rectangle—is completely misleading.

Beekman's trade, for example, could cut out Europe entirely. British colonists' ships set out directly from New York and New England carrying the food and timber that the islands needed, trading them for sugar, which the merchants brought back up the coast. Then the colonists traded their sugar for English fabrics, clothes, and simple manufactured goods, or they took their rum directly to Africa to buy slaves—to sell to the sugar islands. English, North American, French, and Dutch ships competed to supply the Caribbean plantations and buy their sugar. And even all these boats filling the waters of the Atlantic were but one part of an even larger system of world trade.

Africans who sold other Africans as slaves insisted on being paid in fabrics from India. Indeed, historians have discovered that some 35 percent of the cargo typically taken from Europe to Africa originally came from India. What could the Europeans use to buy Indian cloth? The Spanish shipped silver from the mines of Bolivia to Manila in the Philippines, and bought Asian products there. Any silver that English or French pirates could steal from the Spanish was also ideal for buying Asian cloth. So to get the fabrics that would buy the slaves that could be sold for sugar for the English to put into their tea, the Spanish shipped silver to the Philippines, and the French, English, and Dutch sailed east to India. What we call a triangle was really as round as the globe.

Which evidence best supports the authors' claim and purpose?

"Simple enough; but this trade up and down the Atlantic coast was part of a much larger world system."
"Beekman's trade, for example, could cut out Europe entirely."
"Africans who sold other Africans as slaves insisted on being paid in fabrics from India."
"What could the Europeans use to buy Indian cloth?"

A hush fell over the crowd as Samir approached the stage; he took a deep breath and tried to still the tremble in his hands. He had rehearsed the speech for days, practicing late into the night when the house was quiet. The night before, he had been putting the finishing touches on the speech when his mother snuck up the stairs and stopped by his bedroom door with a mug of tea. “It looks like you will need this. How’s it coming?” She tucked the long end of her sari under her leg and sat on his bed. The familiar smell that reminded him of trips to India tickled his nose as he took the warm mug from her; he pressed it to his lips and took a long sip. “I don’t think they’re going to understand it.” “It’s okay if they don’t understand it in their brains; it’s more important that they feel it here.” She pressed her hand to his heart. “My friends don’t know what you went through to get here, and I want to get it just right because I need them to like the story.” “Your friends will like you no matter what. Practice it one more time, and then you need to get some sleep.” He stared at the words that he had painstakingly crafted to tell the story of how his parents had immigrated to the United States from India. Even though he hadn’t been born at the time, he could feel the heat on their skin as they’d packed up their belongings in Mumbai and boarded the plane for their new lives. After a twenty20-hour flight, they landed in the chill of Chicago; they hadn’t brought enough heavy clothes with them and had to buy sweatshirts from the airport store before stepping out into snow for the first time. His mother had danced around in the swirling white like a fascinated child, tasting flakes on her tongue before the cab whisked them away to their new lives. He didn’t know how his parents got by in those early days of loneliness and isolation, when they didn’t know their neighbors and couldn’t
