Answer: d) to express hope that world wars will cease

Explanation: The excerpt shows the poem's opening and closing lines, both stating "I live in the first century of world wars." By repeating this phrase, the poet conveys her desire that these wars will eventually end. The repetition highlights that while she has experienced the beginning century of such conflicts, she hopes it won't continue into future centuries.

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.
seraphim [7410]

“The demonstration and act of resistance by the Indians effectively altered laws.” is the appropriate response.

The legislation known as “The Black Act” mandated that all male Asians register, be fingerprinted, and carry passes at all times. This led to a mobilization of Indians who joined Gandhi's nonviolent protest campaign called Satyagraha. After several years, during which many Indians and Gandhi were imprisoned, the government ultimately had to capitulate to growing public opinion and abolish the act.
