Maintaining the current nine-month school year is essential to keeping students in school. Despite a limited statistic showing a smaller dropout rate, students in year-round school would find more stressors added to their already overwhelming lives. While the American education system does need to be reformed, changing the schedule is not the way to do it.

It ends with a judgment that reform is needed but that the schedule should be left alone.

The answer would be B. "It ends with a judgment that reform is needed but that the schedule should be left alone. "

The economy is the process through which the country's or even a state's goods are produced and supplied. This process constitutes one of the laws that govern the well being of the people.
Democracy is the form of governing a group of people, a system of governing where there are rights that are allowed or given to the citizens. In this form of government, the people hold the majority power instead of being ruled by a dictator. They also have the right to voice their concerns and even criticize the works of their elected leaders.
Judicious is the power system where a judge is elected to preside over certain serious matters between people. This power structure allows for a common ground where disputes can be peacefully settled and both sides of the story presented without any discrimination.

What was some of the opportunities cost associated with not invading Iraq?
Answer:
The 2003 invasion and occupation of Iraq is widely considered to have been one of the biggest military blunders in U.S. history. Its failure to achieve intended war aims is reflected in the fact that 11 years after the operation began, Washington today is debating what steps should be taken to slow the advance of Islamic militants toward Baghdad. Rather than establishing a stable, self-sustaining democracy, the U.S. occupation unleashed forces which may now lead to the country's breakup -- not to mention millions of casualties.

What figure of speech is this quote?
“Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.”
A)Personification
B)Metaphor
C)Simile
D)Repetition
Answer:
Metaphor
Explanation:
A metaphor is quote : "a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable." In this case, we talk about being on a right track not literally, but its just a way to say that "you're close to the answer". Getting run over is just like that too. You are not going to get literally run over, its just a statement that implies that you won't get any farther. Hope this helps. Please ignore the literally at the end, I didn't find a way to remove it :).
