Answer 1

the answer is "A city slave is much better fed and clothed."

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The correct answer is A. A city slave is much better fed and clothed.

In the city, Douglas notices, it is almost shameful to be considered a cruel slaveholder who doesn't feed his slaves. Apparently, there are many people who don't have slaves, which adds to a freer, more liberal environment. At the plantations, deep in the rural America, slaveholders could do with their slaves as they pleased.
