But when cities or countries are accustomed to live under a prince, and his family is exterminated, they, being on the one hand accustomed to obey and on the other hand not having the old prince, cannot agree in making one from amongst themselves, and they do not know how to govern themselves. For this reason they are very slow to take up arms, and a prince can gain them to himself and secure them much more easily. But in republics there is more vitality, greater hatred, and more desire for vengeance, which will never permit them to allow the memory of their former liberty to rest; so that the safest way is to destroy them or to reside there.

Read the excerpt from News Articles about Bullying. Which example best synthesizes the information in this excerpt? As a child diagnosed with Tourette's syndrome, Asperger's syndrome, and obsessive compulsive disorder, Jaylen Arnold has experienced bullying. When he was 8 he decided to take a stand. O I read that Jaylen has Tourette's syndrome, and I saw a program about Tourette's syndrome on TV, and it was really interesting to learn about it. O I read that Jaylen experienced bullying, and I read a newspaper article about a girl who was bullied in my town, and that made me so sad. O I read that Jaylen was bullied for being different, and I have a friend who was bullied for being different and it really hurt, so I will try to be nicer to kids who seem different. O Tread that Jaylen has Tourette's and Asperger's syndrome, as well as obsessive compulsive disorder, and I think it must be hard for him to have all those issues—but he also started Jaylen's Challenge, which is against bullying.​

Answers

Answer: C.  I read that Jaylen was bullied for being different, and I have a friend who was bullied for being different and it really hurt, so I will try to be nicer to kids who seem different.

Explanation:

For an option to be said to have synthesized the information in the excerpt, it should touch on most if not all of the issues in the excerpt and have a conclusion that is in line with the theme of the excerpt.

Option C is therefore the best option because in mentioning that Jaylen was bullied because he was different, it related Jaylen's conditions to his bullying.

Going with the theme of the excerpt which is against bullying, the speaker in option C resolves to be nicer to people who are different.

Answer:

C: I read that Jaylen was bullied for being different, and I have a friend who was bullied for being different and it really hurt, so I will try to be nicer to kids who seem different.

In your opinion should the U.S. government play a role in providing health insurance for its citizens, or should each citizen be responsible for their own health insurance

Answers

Health care is a right and as a matter of social justice the government should be responsible for making sure that every American has access to affordable coverage.
Government's duty to secure and propel the interests of society incorporates the conveyance of excellent medical care. Since the market alone can't guarantee all Americans admittance to quality medical services, the public authority should save the interests of its residents by enhancing the market where there are holes and directing the market where there is failure or injustice. A definitive objective of accomplishing high caliber of care will require solid organizations among administrative, state, and nearby governments and the private area. Interpreting general standards with respect to the suitable part of government into explicit activities inside a quickly changing, decentralized conveyance framework will require the consolidated endeavors of the general population and private areas.

Read the following excerpt from The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling.

There he checked, for he heard the yell of the Pack hunting, heard the bellow of a hunted Sambhur, and the snort as the buck turned at bay. Then there were wicked, bitter howls from the young wolves: “Akela! Akela! Let the Lone Wolf show his strength. Room for the leader of our Pack! Spring, Akela!”

The Lone Wolf must have sprung and missed his hold, for Mowgli heard the snap of his teeth and then a yelp as the Sambhur knocked him over with his fore foot.

He did not wait for anything more, but dashed on; and the yells grew fainter behind him as he ran into the croplands where the villagers lived.



How does the ending of this excerpt create tension and maybe lead to further conflict?


a. Akela will be furious because he missed his kill, and he will want to take his anger out on Mowgli.

b. The pack will mourn Akela’s failure during the hunt, but they will honor the old wolf.

c. After they kill Akela, the wolves will ask Mowgli to become the new leader of their pack.

d. Because Akela has failed to down the buck, he and Mowgli are likely to be killed by the other wolves.

Answers

The ending of this excerpt creates tension and leads to further conflict: d. Because Akela has failed to down the buck, he and Mowgli are likely to be killed by the other wolves.

What is Conflict?
