Select the correct text in the passage. which two lines in this excerpt from "address on woman's rights" by elizabeth cady stanton show that she believed only women can address the issues that affect them and so they should be given the right to vote? should that gentleman be present this evening and feel disposed to give any of his objections to our movement, we will be most happy to answer him. i should feel exceedingly diffident to appear before you wholly unused as i am to public speaking, were i not nerved by a sense of right and duty—did i not feel that the time had fully come for the question of woman's wrongs to be laid before the public—did i not believe that woman herself must do this work—for woman alone can understand the height and the depth, the length and the breadth of her own degradation and woe. man cannot speak for us—because he has been educated to believe that we differ from him so materially, that he cannot judge of our thoughts, feelings and opinions by his own. moral beings can only judge of others by themselves—the moment they give a different nature to any of their own kind they utterly fail. the drunkard was hopelessly lost until it was discovered that he was governed by the same laws of mind as the sober man. then with what magic power, by kindness and love, was he raised from the slough of despond and placed rejoicing on high land. let a man once settle the question that woman does not think and feel like himself and he may as well undertake to judge of the amount of intellect and sensation of any of the animal creation as of woman's nature. he can know but little with certainty, and that but by observation. among the many important questions which have been brought before the public, there is none that more vitally affects the whole human family than that which is technically termed woman's rights. every allusion to the degraded and inferior position occupied by woman all over the world, has ever been met by scorn and abuse.

Read the passage from sugar changed the world. but it is in india, where it was used as an offering in religious and magical ceremonies, that we have the first written record of sugar. long before the first pyramids were built in egypt, the ancient sumerians traded with the people of harappa and mohenjo daro, who lived along the indus river. unfortunately, we are still not able to read the writings left behind from those ancient cities. so the first documents telling us about life in that region come from a much later period. these hindu sacred teachings were probably first gathered together sometime between 1500 and 900 b.c., and were carefully memorized. only hundreds of years later were they finally written down. the hindu writings tell us of a religion in which fire was extremely important. people believed that the gods gave fire to human beings. yet fire was also a way for humans to reach the gods. by placing offerings in a special fire, a priest could turn them into smoke and send them on to the gods. five ingredients were selected for this special burning: milk, cheese, butter, honey, and sugar cane. which details would best fit in a summary of this passage? select two options. "in india . . it was used as an offering in religious and magical ceremonies" "the first written record of sugar" "long before the first pyramids were built in egypt" "gods gave fire to human beings" "a priest could turn them into smoke and send them on to the gods"
