Read this excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass:As to my own treatment while I lived on Colonel Lloyd's plantation, it was very similar to that of the other slave children. I was not old enough to work in the field, and there being little else than field work to do, I had a great deal of leisure time. The most I had to do was to drive up the cows at evening, keep the fowls out of the garden, keep the front yard clean, and run of errands for my old master's daughter, Mrs. Lucretia Auld. The most of my leisure time I spent in helping Master Daniel Lloyd in finding his birds, after he had shot them. . . . I was seldom whipped by my old master, and suffered little from any thing else than hunger and cold.Which best explains how Douglass uses objectivity to convey his perspective in this passage?A.He creates pathos by referring to his hunger and being whipped to make readers feel sorry for him.B.He describes his treatment chronologically to show that he is presenting the facts correctly.C.He describes his experiences on the plantation simply, in order to avoid bias and sentimentality.D.He uses formal word choice, like "errands" and "seldom," to establish his credibility.

Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, Chapter 9 (excerpt)Frederick Douglass1 I have now reached a period of my life when I can give dates. I left Baltimore, and went to live with Master Thomas Auld, at St. Michael's, in March, 1832. It was now more than seven years since I lived with him in the family of my old master, on Colonel Lloyd's plantation. We of course were now almost entire strangers to each other. He was to me a new master, and I to him a new slave. I was ignorant of his temper and disposition; he was equally so of mine. A very short time, however, brought us into full acquaintance with each other. I was made acquainted with his wife not less than with himself. They were well matched, being equally mean and cruel. I was now, for the first time during a space of more than seven years, made to feel the painful gnawings of hunger—a something which I had not experienced before since I left Colonel Lloyd's plantation. It went hard enough with me then, when I could look back to no period at which I had enjoyed a sufficiency. It was tenfold harder after living in Master Hugh's family, where I had always had enough to eat, and of that which was good.2 I have said Master Thomas was a mean man. He was so. Not to give a slave enough to eat, is regarded as the most aggravated development of meanness even among slaveholders. The rule is, no matter how coarse the food, only let there be enough of it. This is the theory; and in the part of Maryland from which I came, it is the general practice,—though there are many exceptions. Master Thomas gave us enough of neither coarse nor fine food.3 There were four slaves of us in the kitchen—my sister Eliza, my aunt Priscilla, Henny, and myself; and we were allowed less than a half of a bushel of corn-meal per week, and very little else, either in the shape of meat or vegetables. It was not enough for us to subsist upon. We were therefore reduced to the wretched necessity of living at the expense of our neighbors. This we did by begging and stealing, whichever came handy in the time of need, the one being considered as legitimate as the other.4 A great many times have we poor creatures been nearly perishing with hunger, when food in abundance lay mouldering in the safe and smoke-house, and our pious mistress was aware of the fact; and yet that mistress and her husband would kneel every morning, and pray that God would bless them in basket and store!Question 1How does Douglass organize the main ideas in this passage?ResponsesA CategoricallyCategoricallyB ChronologicallyChronologicallyC DeductivelyDeductivelyD SpatiallySpatiallyQuestion 2Choose THREE lines that indicate a the organization of ideas you chose in the previous question.ResponsesA I have now reached a period of my life when I can give dates.I have now reached a period of my life when I can give dates.B I left Baltimore, and went to live with Master Thomas Auld, at St. Michael's, in March, 1832.I left Baltimore, and went to live with Master Thomas Auld, at St. Michael's, in March, 1832.C We were therefore reduced to the wretched necessity of living at the expense of our neighbors.We were therefore reduced to the wretched necessity of living at the expense of our neighbors.D Not to give a slave enough to eat, is regarded as the most aggravated development of meanness even among slaveholders.Not to give a slave enough to eat, is regarded as the most aggravated development of meanness even among slaveholders.E It was now more than seven years since I lived with him in the family of my old master, on Colonel Lloyd's plantation.
