(1) Four-day school weeks will be better for student’s health. (2) One article says “Some students feel the four-day school week provides an opportunity for extra rest and a less stressful environment. Being out of school one extra day per week allows students to relax or to be more productive.” (3) This shows how four-day school weeks would be better. (4) Students are super stressed out all the time because they have so much to do every single day. (5) A four-day school week would be good because it would give everyone an extra day to chill out and have fun or get a job or volunteer which would be good so that’s why. (6) Also, students who are less stressed out would do better in school anyway so doing stuff to make them less stressed is the best idea. (7) That’s just one of the reasons we should have a four-day school week. Put the number or numbers for each part of the body paragraph checklist.

Topic: Curfews
Question: Should cities impose a teen curfew law?
Prompt: You will organize an argument in favor of teen curfew laws.

(A curfew is a regulation requiring a person to be home at a certain prescribed time, as imposed by a parent on a child.)

____________________________________

Evidence 1

Positive Effects of Teen Curfew Laws

Three months after introducing curfew laws, the Dallas Police Department conducted a study to determine whether curfew laws decreased teen violence. The department found that juvenile crime during curfew hours dropped by 17.7 percent. Also, arrests during curfew hours decreased by 14.6 percent. These initial findings show that curfew laws have reduced juvenile crime and victimization.

Evidence 2

Positive Effects of Teen Curfew Laws

The developing brain of a teenager needs between nine and ten hours of sleep every night. Regularly not getting enough sleep (chronic sleep deprivation) reduces success in school. Sleep deprivation can increase emotional problems such as depression. It is suggested that teenagers avoid going out late and that they establish a regular, early bedtime. Curfew laws would force teens to come home earlier and get the sleep they need.

The Empire That Vanished
(1) Using archaeological studies, and Greek writings, historians now know much
more than ever before about the mysterious group of people called the Scythians. (2)
Historians have long known that they were nomadic, barbaric horsemen and a powerful force in Europe for about 400 years. (3) These people ruled a vast area of land for several centurys and then seemed to have vanished completely. (4) Artifacts found in the territory that the Scythians controlled have given clues about how they lived and what things they valued. (5) However, no evidence has been found of a centralized community, nor do historians know what eventually happened to these people. (6) Historians believe that the Scythians originally came from Asia around 700
B.C., searching for better pastures and other peoples to conquer. (7) At its peak the
Scythian kingdom reached from the Danube river east across the Ukraine, the Crimea, and Russia. (8) Historians disagree about the size of the Scythian population. (9) Some think it numbered around half a million; other contend that it numbered only in the tens of thousands. (10) According to evidence uncovered by archaeologists, both the men and the women were feirce warriors. (11) They often traded their surplus goods and furs for crafted gold and fine ceramics made in Greece and central Asia. (12) The Scythians were especially proud of their adornments made of gold and precious stones. (13) They liked to show their wealth and even decorated their horses with gold. (14) Because of their fighting ability, the Scythians were able to acquire great riches. (15) Many of the Scythians’ gold ornaments found in Russia are formed into shapes that tell stories about their everyday life. (16) One elaborate gold neckpiece has figures of a resting calf, a boy milking a sheep, and bare-chested warriors with their weapons close at hand. (17) Into the image of a Scythian woman, another piece was worked, showing what the people looked like. (18) Archaeologists are still working trying to find out what happened to these people. (19) Although the Scythians left many of their treasure behind, researchers have found no trace of where these mighty warriors went.

What idea about women riding bicycles is emphasized in paragraphs 6 and 7?

A. Riding bicycles offered more than just freedom of movement.

B. Riding bicycles was a simple way to participate in a political movement.

C. Riding bicycles changed women’s fashion.

D. Riding bicycles was a popular subject in magazines

Pg 6-7

Some stated the liberating effects of the bicycle with less sarcasm. “The bicycle has brought to women a healthful, wholesome means of securing a degree of freedom and independence that no amount of discussion regarding ‘women’s rights’ would ever have produced,” wrote the L.A.W. Bulletin and Good Roads magazine in 1898. Meanwhile, Munsey’s Magazine assessed the impact of the wheel on women in a special bicycle-themed issue. “If she has ridden her bicycle into new fields, becoming in the process a new creature, it has been gradually and unconsciously,” the editors wrote.

“She did not have to be born again in some mysterious fashion, becoming a strange creature, a ‘new woman.’ She is more like the ‘eternal feminine,’ who has taken on wings, and who is using them with an ever increasing delight in her new power.”Indeed, many bicycle companies at home and abroad did put wings on the women in their advertisements, emphasizing that they had taken flight.
