Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. The traders who came up from Italy offered items they had bought [from] Muslims, which were not available in Europe: fruits such as oranges, apricots, and figs; dyes such as cochineal, which produces a rich red; rare fabrics such as cotton and raw silk. Many of the fabrics that we know of today came to Europe via the Muslims, and their names still show their origins: damask from Damascus, muslin from Mosul, gauzes from Gaza. Which inference does this passage best support? Traders brought not only sugar but also other valuable items to Europe. The most popular items for traders to buy were various fruits and fabrics. Most types of cloth are named after where they are from instead of what they look like. After seeing cloth from other lands, Europeans worked to produce similar fabrics.
