Passage 1: It is time for the residents of West Seneca to approve a tax hike that
will allow for air conditioning in the high school. No one complains
about heating the school every day during the winter, so a simple
decrease of the school temperature in June should not be a big deal.
This is an important time of year when students must focus on final
exams, but weather conditions make it difficult to do so. Once we
overcome the expense of installing air conditioning, the cost of running
it for a few short weeks will be minor.
Passage 2:
As a student at West Seneca High School, I cannot stress enough how
uncomfortable conditions are at school during June. Students are
packed into the gym for final exams with only a few fans to circulate
the stifling air. Last year I could hardly concentrate on my tests as
beads of sweat dripped onto my desk. If the school district really cares
about us doing our best on exams, it will provide conditions in which
we can do so

Which lines in this excerpt from act ii of william shakespeare’s romeo and juliet reveal that mercutio thinks romeo would be better off if he stopped thinking about love? mercutio: i will bite thee by the ear for that jest. romeo: nay, good goose, bite not. mercutio: thy wit is a very bitter sweeting it is a most sharp sauce. romeo: and is it not well served in to a sweet goose? mercutio: o here's a wit of cheveril, that stretches from an inch narrow to an ell broad! romeo: i stretch it out for that word 'broad; ' which added to the goose, proves thee far and wide a broad goose. mercutio: why, is not this better now than groaning for love? now art thou sociable, now art thou romeo; now art thou what thou art, by art as well as by nature: for this drivelling love is like a great natural, that runs lolling up and down to hide his bauble in a hole. benvolio: stop there, stop there. mercutio: thou desirest me to stop in my tale against the hair. benvolio: thou wouldst else have made thy tale large. mercutio: o, thou art deceived; i would have made it short: for i was come to the whole depth of my tale; and meant, indeed, to occupy the argument no longer.
