California is one of only four states where you need more than just a majority of voters to approve a bond issue to build new sc

hools. Not coincidentally, California ranks 49th out of 50 states in terms of classroom crowding. Most of our schools are 30 years or older. Proposition 26 would allow school construction bonds to pass with a majority vote instead of the current two-thirds requirement. A majority vote is only fair. Currently, every "no" vote counts twice as much as every "yes" vote. Of course it's easy to argue for Proposition 26 in Palo Alto, where voters understand the importance of a good education. Here, voters have been generous to the school system over the years, and bond measures have passed with far more than the two-thirds vote necessary. But that's not true elsewhere in California, especially where schools fall well below national standards. We're not saying that school spending means higher test scores, but it's hard for students to learn in crowded, cold, or crumbling classrooms. And these students are the workforce of tomorrow we're talking about, which is why many employers in the Silicon Valley are backing Proposition 26. 4 Choose the correct answer. Which statement best shows a central idea of the passage? A. California needs to work towards fixing their energy problem. B. California needs a voucher school funding system to offset the funding problems. C. Voters in America consider education an important issue. D. Voters should pass Proposition 26 because many of the state’s schools are failing.

Read the excerpt from Act III of Hamlet.
gogolik [260]

The correct answer is by exploring human emotions.

Elizabethan drama placed a lot of emphasis on portraying human emotions, how people thought and felt about certain things. Shakespeare was definitely one of the authors who was best at doing that, through plays such as Hamlet, Macbeth, etc.

Religion wasn't that important during the Elizabethan era, so options B and D are incorrect. And if you read the excerpt, you will see that there is no mention of political policies, so C is also incorrect, thus leaving us with A.
