Answer:

For Congressional redistricting in 2003.

Explanation:

<em>What are special sessions?</em>

Special session amounts to legislative overtime. If there is a stalemate on some of the key issues in the government, a governor can decide to call for a special session. During special sessions, bills that are discussed should be on governor's agenda. Legislators have a period of 30 days to do their work, and it can be called for at any time.

<em>Texas Redistricting</em>

2003 Texas redistricting is a contraversional state plan for defining new Congresional districts. In 2002 Republicans won the control of the Texas state legislature for the first time in 130 years. Their plan was to work on establishing a majority in the House of Representatives seats from Texas, which was held by their own party. It is said that this redistricting violated the Voting Rights Act and was settled by the Supreme Court of the United States of America in a case called <em>League of United Latin American Citizens v. Perry</em> in 2006. The Court ruled that only one District violated the aforementioned act.

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Active listening shows the speaker you are concerned.                

Explanation:

Active listening relates to the method used to advise, prepare, and settle problems or disagreements. It allows the audience to focus thoroughly, learn, react, afterwards and recall what has been said.

This seems to be contrary to many other communication methods such as active listening as well as emphatic hearing. Hearing abilities can create flow instead of willful delusion, or even negative emotions including tension, resentment, and dissatisfaction.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

Cognitive dissonance

Explanation:

In psychology, the term cognitive dissonance refers to the <u>stress that a person experiences when he/she faces contradictory beliefs, ideas or values or when he/she has to act in a way that is contrary to these beliefs, ideas or values.</u>

In this example Goran was about to award the job to the lowest bidder but then his boss demanded he awards the job to a friend of hers from college (the highest bidder). Thus, he feels torn between his sense of fairness and his boss' demand. We can see that <u>Goran is facing contradictory values and he is being asked to act in a way that is contrary to his sense of fairness.</u> Therefore, he is experiencing Cognitive dissonance.
