Before British scientist Alexander Fleming discovered antibiotics in the 1920s, bacterial
infections could be deadly. After antibiotics were developed, though, doctors were able to
treat infections and save lives. Over the years, however, antibiotics were overused. As a
result, antibiotic-resistant bacteria-also known as superbugs-have appeared. According
to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about two million people become
infected with superbugs every year. Canadian scientists may have stumbled on a
surprising tool to combat the overuse of the drugs. By mixing maple syrup extract with
antibiotics, the researchers were able to increase their effectiveness while reducing the

Read the excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass.


If any one thing in my experience, more than another, served to deepen my conviction of the infernal character of slavery, and to fill me with unutterable loathing of slaveholders, it was their base ingratitude to my poor old grandmother. She had served my old master faithfully from youth to old age. She had been the source of all his wealth; she had peopled his plantation with slaves; she had become a great-grandmother in his service. She had rocked him in infancy, attended him in childhood, served him through life, and at his death wiped from his icy brow the cold death-sweat, and closed his eyes forever.


Douglass’s purpose in this excerpt is to

A: praise the kindness and faithfulness of his grandmother.

B: mourn the death of a master who had been kind to him.

C: provide an example of the torment enslaved persons endure.

D: argue that enslaved persons should be set free when their master dies.

Presently I heard a slight groan, and I knew it was the groan of mortal terror. It was not a groan of pain or of grief – oh, no! – it was the low stifled sound that arises from the bottom of the soul when overcharged with awe.

I knew the sound well. Many a night, just at midnight, when all the world slept, it has welled up from my own bosom, deepening, with its dreadful echo, the terrors that distracted me. I say I knew it well. I knew what the old man felt, and pitied him, although I chuckled at heart.

B:He is a cruel person who enjoys torturing others.


C:The character cherishes the night.
