One main idea expressed by Ralph Waldo Emerson is that a government based on majority rule cannot be based on justice. What argument did he give to support this idea?

Those in power are corrupt.
That those in power are easily corruptible.
That humans are weak and cannot be trusted to do what is right for the common good.
That there is no one who will listen to the minority.

The argument that supports the idea that a government based on majority rule cannot be based on justice is that those in power are corrupt.

He was an important writer and abolitionist during the 19th century.

One of the ideas supported by Waldo was that the existing government was far from ideal. Indeed, Waldo believed government based on majority rule does not enhance justice.

This is because according to Waldo all political parties and politicians are corrupt as they are looking for their own interests rather than thinking about general society.

Palo Duro
Some places simply warrant more attention. One of the most illustrious sites in the world is known by very few except regular adventure-goers.
Travelers are awed by Palo Duro Canyon as its deep, red landscape appears seemingly out of nowhere. The canyon, similar in length to the Grand
Canyon in Arizona, has scenic views just as glorious as those of the more famous canyon. At night, coyotes can be heard in the distance as the high
winds gust through the valley, echoing the howls off the steep canyon walls. During the day, the hateful sun heats up every visible crevice, providing a
contrast to the cool, breezy nights. The favorable aspect of the day is its gift of sight, of the stunning erosion that has taken place over millions of
years, or of the rocks impossibly balanced on one another and their relentless determination to remain unmoved. This place and its striking diversity
deserve recognition for doing exactly what nature does best: providing wonder to all.

Read the excerpt from Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë.

She [Mrs. Fairfax] returned; with her own hands cleared her knitting apparatus and a book or two from the table, to make room for the tray which Leah now brought, and then herself handed me the refreshments. I felt rather confused at being the object of more attention than I had ever before received, and, that too, shown by my employer and superior; but as she did not herself seem to consider she was doing anything out of her place, I thought it better to take her civilities quietly.

What does the juxtaposition of Mrs. Fairfax’s behavior with Jane’s reaction reveal about Jane?

Jane is worried about doing the wrong thing.
Jane does not expect to be treated with kindness.
Jane does not like to be the center of attention.
Jane has little experience interacting with strangers.

Read 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.

What claim do the authors make in this passage?

Madame Villeneuve deserves credit for persuading the judges that enslaved people should not be property.
Freeing Pauline would have a significant effect on how people viewed involuntary servitude.
Because so many other people remained enslaved, Pauline's specific case was not very important.
The disagreement between King Louis XIV and the judges would have major effects on laws.

What did Cooley mean by his term “looking-glass self” with respect to the socialization process?

When my sisters and I cared too much about our appearance, my mother would tell us how Trujillo's vanity knew no bounds. How in order to appear taller, his shoes were specially made abroad with built-in heels that added inches to his height. How plumes for his Napoleonic hats were purchased in Paris and shipped in vacuum-packed boxes to the Island. How his uniforms were trimmed with tassels and gold epaulettes and red sashes, pinned with his medals, crisscrossing his chest. How he costumed himself in dress uniforms and ceremonial hats and white gloves—all of this in a tropical country where men wore guayaberas in lieu of suit jackets, short-sleeved shirts worn untucked so the body could be ventilated. My mother could go on and on.

Julia Alvarez
