In the US government archives, this passage on the forming of the Constitution precedes the archived Constitution document. Read

the passage and respond to the question below.
The Federal Convention convened in the State House (Independence Hall) in Philadelphia on May 14, 1787, to revise the Articles of Confederation. Because the delegations from only two states were at first present, the members adjourned from day to day until a quorum of seven states was obtained on May 25. Through discussion and debate it became clear by mid-June that, rather than amend the existing Articles, the Convention would draft an entirely new frame of government. All through the summer, in closed sessions, the delegates debated, and redrafted the articles of the new Constitution. Among the chief points at issue were how much power to allow the central government, how many representatives in Congress to allow each state, and how these representatives should be elected--directly by the people or by the state legislators. The work of many minds, the Constitution stands as a model of cooperative statesmanship and the art of compromise. Put yourself in the place of one of the lawmakers in 1787. You are present to represent your state. At the end, you realize that you have experienced “the art of compromise.” How will you describe to your neighbor what this compromise means? Write at least 150 words in a text box.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Put yourself in the place of one of the lawmakers in 1787. You are present to represent your state. In the end, you realize that you have experienced "the art of compromise ".

I will describe to my neighbor the meaning of this compromise in the following way.

I would tell him that a compromise means that we have to honor the agreements reached during the Constitutional Convention. That we have to respect and honor what the delegates have signed and promoted in our territories and cities the new Constitution because that is what is agreed upon.

Although we had differences and harsh debates during the convention, in the end, we reached an agreement and set our differences aside, we came up with the best document possible and it is our obligation to support it.
