Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.
In the sugar colonies, the wounds of slavery were never
far beneath the surface. The Africans who had worked in
sugar quickly left the plantations and tried to farm or
moved to nearby towns. As one planter said, it made no
sense to believe that "the Negro would become a
grateful and cheerful free laborer on the soil which had
been watered by his tears in slavery." But what could the
former slaves do? Every Indian who accepted the paltry
wages specified in the indenture contract lowered the
price an African could charge for his labor.
O Why did Indians come to work on the plantations?
O Why did Africans leave the plantations to farm
elsewhere?
O Why did the Indians accept low wages for work on
plantations?
O Why did indenture contracts include low wages for
Africans?

Read the excerpt from the common sense of bicycling: bicycling for ladies. the bicycle is capable of such high speed that there is a strong temptation to ride so fast as to cause over exertion or excessive perspiration. on the other hand some people ride too slow, causing a zigzag and uncertain movement. while exercising reasonable caution, be a fearless rider. when you come to a steep hill, if the road is clear, let it go as fast as it will. if you rid yourself of that ghost of fear, coasting is one of the greatest delights of cycling. which is the best paraphrase of the text?
