The correct answer is C) because they wanted to avoid the discomfort of facing an unpopular view.

In the majority opinion, Fortas suggested that the reason the school authorities suspended the students was that they wanted to avoid the discomfort of facing an unpopular view.

We are referring to the case Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District that was decided on February 24, 1969.

In 1965, five students decided to wear black armbands in protest of the Vietnam War and they were suspended by the school for doing that. In the majority opinion, Judge Abe Fortas suggested that the reason the school authorities suspended the students was that they wanted to avoid the discomfort of facing an unpopular view. At the end of the case, the Court decided that the use of armbands as a protest was not a motive to cause any disruption and that the protest was protected by freedom of speech.

The other options of the question were A) because they thought that Constitutional rights did not apply to school settings. B) because they preferred that students wrote essays on Vietnam instead. D) because they feared that students wanted to take over the school.

Answer:

A: Video games have negative effects on teenagers.

Explanation:

The question what the author's overall opinion on video games is. So, the reader should find the main idea of the passage. Throughout the text, the author brings up many problems video games cause like lack of activity, lack of friends, and worse grades. The author also brings up more effects video games have. Since the majority of the text is about overall negative effects on teenagers it is clear that A is correct. Additionally, much of the author's dictation has negative connotations. So, it is safe to say that they do not support video games. This is another indicator of the author's viewpoint.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

It only attracts real friends.

Explanation:

If you act like a certain way that isn't yourself, you might be able to find people that like you for that. Once you show them the real you though, they might start assuming that you changed and start spreading rumors about you (Based on my experience). Acting like yourself if always good since it only attracts the people that have things in common with you! <em>Love</em><em> </em><em>yourself</em><em>!</em>
