Question

Which of the following excerpts most clearly illustrate how the slavers were in opposition to characters such as Eliza and Mrs. Shelby?

A. "...trade an't everything, and money an't everything, 'cause we's all got souls."(p.57)
B. "She would not naturally go a lonesome way," said Haley, thinking aloud, and not minding Sam's remarks. (p.50)
C. I'll say this now, I al'ays meant to drive my trade so as to make money on 't, fust and foremost, as much as any man..."(p.57)
D. "I never couldn't see into it; young uns is heaps of trouble to 'em; one would think, now, they'd be glad to get clar on 'em; but they
aren't." (p.55)

Answer 1

I would say C, because it makes the most sense without the context of the story. If not that one, then D makes sense as well.

Answer 2

Answer:

D

Explanation:

eliza and mrs. shelby both symbolize the importance of families and motherhood & D is dialogue from haley, a slaver, he wonders how mothers tolerate their children & aren't happy to see them go (AKA when their children are taken away from them, haley doesn't understand why the mothers get upset).
