In Sotomayor's lecture <em>A Latina judge voice</em>, the main idea is that "our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging." She, as a Latin woman judge, quotes several statistics of women and people of color in the American Judiciary system to show how much improvement there has been made and remains to be made. Since "there is no objective stance but only a series of perspectives - no neutrality, no escape from choice in judging", unbiased is impossible, a more diverse set of judges with differents backgrounds and experiences would do a better work in judging such a diverse society as the American is. She will try to "judge when those opinions, sympathies and prejudices are appropriate", when her background, cultural heritage and experience are so, as the Supreme Court suggests.

<u>Sample Response:</u> The central idea of Sotomayor’s speech is that ethnic diversity is important to America, yet sometimes we live in a way that does not honor our nation’s diversity.  Sotomayor consistently cites the importance of her diverse upbringing, showing a clear love for cultural identity. She uses statistics and facts to demonstrate the lack of diversity in judgeships. Sotomayor also declares how important her diversity is in inspiring the way she lives her life.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The answer is option C,

An individual's place in the world is determined by his or her environment.

Explanation: Sympathy is a poem by Paul Laurence which describes about the oppression of an individual. He used the metaphor of a caged bird which symbolizes the oppressed individual. The caged bird wants to get rid of the cage after seeing the beautiful landscape but it can't.

In the poem 'A man said to the universe' there is a conversation between a man and the universe. The man wants his recognition from the universe and the universe states him the facts. Here the man represents the individual and the universe represent the environment.

So in both poem the common theme is that an individual's place in the world is determined by his or her environment.

Neko [114]

The correct answer to this question is: TRUE.

The section written in all caps is a <em>conclusion</em> of the previous explanation, therefore, <em>it expresses the main idea in the text</em>. A conclusion consists of a recapitulation of the introduction, which usually expresses the main idea in a text. The first sentence wrote, "When the sun and moon are near the horizon, we notice that they are distorted from a circular form into ovals, and are usually of a reddish color" tells the reader what is the main information or idea the writer is trying to convey. All that follows is an explanation of the reasons why that phenomenon happens. In the end, the section written in all caps resumes the introduction and adds a summary of the information given. Thus, this section can be considered an example of the main idea presented in the beginning.
