Snezhnost [94]3 years ago

Answer: The right answer is the A) "In the absence of a specific showing of constitutionally valid reasons to regulate their speech, students are entitled to freedom of expression of their views. As Judge Gewin, speaking for the Fifth Circuit, said, school officials cannot suppress 'expressions of feelings with which they do not wish to contend.'"

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that the doctrine of precedent, more technically known as <em>stare decisis</em>, a Latin expression that can be translated as "to stand by things decided," essentially entails using a previous case or issue that was already decided by a court in answering or deciding a present legal question or case. Excerpts C and D do not refer to previous cases. They are remarks about the actual case <em>Tinker v. Des Moines</em>. Excerpt B does indeed refer to previous decisions, but it has not been elaborated. Excerpt A is the one that shows the use of the doctrine of precedent. With the goal of supporting his or her argument, the speaker notes the lack of constitutionally valid reasons that could regulate the speech of the students, and argues that, because of that absence, students are entitled to freely express their views. In addition, he or she also echoes a previous statement from a legal authority that shared a similar point of view.

The egyptian tomb which sentence expresses a primary theme developed in the passage
lakkis [162]

The question is incomplete and the full version can be found online.  

Answer: C. A relationship needs more than a routine

Explanation:

In "The Egyptian Tomb," Beatriz Espejo tells the story of someone who takes his or her mother for lunch every week. Despite having a strict routine to get together regularly, they don´t seem to get along.

Although taking care of the elderly is portrayed as a difficult task, is because of the damaged relationship and not necessarily because of the mother´s age. It´s never said that mothers and daughters can´t get along, and there´re no references to financial hardships. The theme is more likely to be that their routine is not enough, as they still need to work on their relationship.
