Read this excerpt of a speech that Javier is writing about the topic of a longer school day.

I don’t think we should have a longer school day. Children already spend 7 hours in school. _____ If parents and teachers want students to do better in school, they should make smaller classes and pay teachers more money instead of extending the school day.

Which best addresses the counterclaim that “students should have a longer school day” and belongs in the blank space in Javier’s speech?

The school day now lasts from early in the morning to late in the afternoon, which is long enough for children to have to sit in school.
With a longer school day, students would not get a chance for free play, which studies prove helps students develop the creative thinking skills they need.
I’ve heard that some countries have longer school days and not as much homework, which seems to suit those students well.
I have a really long school day because I go to after-school programs until my dad comes to pick me up after he finishes his workday.

“Love Compared”
by Nizar Qabbani

I do not resemble your other lovers, my lady
should another give you a cloud
I give you rain
Should he give you a lantern, I
will give you the moon
Should he give you a branch
I will give you the trees
And if another gives you a ship
I shall give you the journey.

An Excerpt from "Time Jumper" by Kimberly Myers
CHAPTER 1

If I'd known that it was going to be the last day that I spent in Haverford (well, the Haverford of 2013), I might have spent it a little differently.
By the time I woke up, both Mom and Dad were at work. There wasn't a whole lot going on yet that summer, so I took my time making breakfast and thought about what I could get into that day. If I remember correctly, I met up with Beth around noon and we went down to the diner on Main Street. Later that night, it was dinner with the family, as usual. I don't think I said anything particularly worthwhile. I mostly gave roundabout or one word answers to my parents' questions about what was new with me. I eventually said goodnight and went upstairs to my room. It all only stands out in my memory so much now because of what happened next.
CHAPTER 2
The next morning, I woke with a start. It felt like I'd only been asleep for a minute, but light was already streaming in through the window. I should have realized that something was off—the light was cold and gray, nothing like the bright beams that should have been there telling me that a summer day was beckoning me outside.
I swung my legs over the side of the bed and slid my feet to the floor. Instantly, I was wide awake. The thick carpet that normally squished underfoot was gone. I was standing on wide, rough-hewn boards. My eyes darted around the room. Yes, the dimensions were right, but nothing else about my room was. I flew down the stairs, looking for someone in my family who could explain how the house had undergone such a remodel—and a poor one, at that—while I slept. I didn't find anyone.
"I have to get out of here. I feel like I'm going crazy," I thought. "I just need to get outside. Wait, what if I'm dreaming?"
Walking outside left me feeling like I'd been punched in the stomach. I expected to see the street filled with the normal taxis and cars and lined with businesses opening up for the day. Instead, I saw a tree-lined street, and three buildings. In the place of cars, I saw a horse drawing a wagon.
If I was dreaming that morning, I'm still dreaming over a year later.

Which statement describes a theme expressed in the story “Quiet Fighter”?PLEASE HELP I WILL GIVE BRAINLEST IF THE ANSWER IS RIGHT!~

When children become adults, the way they interact with their parents changes completely.
Revenge is a better feeling for most people than the helplessness that results from a sudden and painful loss.
When someone important to you dies, the best way to handle your grief is to identify an enemy an act out your feelings aggressively.
Both talkative, agressive "fighters" and quiet, passive ones can be equally lost when facing an elusive enemy like grief.
