: Write one large paragraph: If the Federal Job Act was implemented now how would that affect the next election and political tensions in the USA?

Explanation:

More than any other aspect of U.S. government structure, federalism contributes significantly to innovation in state, local and national government alike.1 However, it is unlikely that the contemporary impacts of federalism in postindustrial America were fully anticipated by the framers of the U.S. constitution. The Founders were driven to a much greater extent by a desire to strike a balance in political power between a nascent national government and the several pre-existing state governments than in promoting innovation and the capacity to adapt to ever changing socio-economic and environmental circumstances. The adoption of a federal form of government at the outset of our nation’s history reflected an appreciation for the cultural heterogeneity that characterized the original thirteen states.2 As the intergovernmental relationships between the federal government and the several states have evolved over time, however, federalism in America has repeatedly proven to serve as an important institutional asset in the service of sustainability.

This chapter will demonstrate how a variety of incentive structures propel state and local governments toward greater open-mindedness, experimentation, and learning from experience than is generally the case with the national government. Unlike the more insulated federal government, the several states and their many local governments face increasingly vexing and complex social and economic challenges which cannot be brushed aside in favor of engagement in the rough-and-tumble of global politics and national partisan competition; citizens in our towns, cities, counties and states frequently demand that action be taken to address their immediate concerns for the quality of life where they live, and they tend to expect tangible results from their state and local governments.

Law enforcement services and community safety are good examples of such concerns for immediate tangible results. When criminal activity increases in a state or local jurisdiction, citizens often call for stricter laws, stiffer penalties for violations, and more robust enforcement; the sidestepping of issues and the shifting of blame to others are generally not acceptable dodges of responsibility to citizens calling for effective action. The heightened visibility of problems at the state and local level, and the demand for quick solutions to those problems, commonly place a heavy burden on state and local governments for timely action. While this often intense atmosphere can be quite stressful for state and local policymakers, some of the very best and most innovative solutions to tough problems emerge from this setting – leading to the development of solutions that promote the sustainability of states and local communities in one location that are often copied, modified and implemented in other state and local government settings across the nation.

The term federalism refers to a formal legal relationship between one or more levels of government vertically organized, and a whole host of relationships between similar levels of government horizontally organized. As Watts notes, the highly regarded late scholar of federalism Daniel Elazar viewed federalism as a complex contractual arrangement; for Elazar federalism represents a form of “shared rule plus self rule — and a balance between cooperation and competition among the general and constituent governments.”3 The structure of American federalism was initially intended to protect pre-existing units of government (the states), and serve as an authoritative method of assigning or dividing responsibilities among the levels of government. In contrast, contemporary approaches to American federalism — the result of over a century of change — clearly emphasize collaboration among and across units of government while continuing to respect the distinctive priorities and needs of populations in different state and local jurisdictions. Today, an expansive and flexible understanding of American federalism represents a clear opportunity for innovation rather than representing a strict limitation on what actions any particular level of government is allowed to take.

Maria had been raised in the flat farmland of Indiana. Her new job in New York City was great, but there were lots of things she had to get used to. The first thing she had to deal with was noise. The sound of traffic never ceased. Sirens wailed suddenly at all hours. Garbage trucks backed into the alley beneath her apartment and made a terrible noise. They always seemed to arrive at 5:00 in the morning. The second thing she had to deal with was getting to work. The crush of the crowded sidewalks made her feel as if she was being swept by a tide of people. Everyone seemed to know where they were going and they walked fast. Maria felt that she had to walk fast too, just to keep from getting lost in the crowd. Soon after beginning her new job in downtown Manhattan, Maria had to deal with a third thing. Walking on concrete and standing on the subway were hard on her feet. Soon, she learned to imitate her fellow workers. She came to work in sneakers, carrying her dress shoes in her tote bag.

Once you’ve read this paragraph, look over the following ideas to see which one best describes its topic.

a. Maria was raised in Indiana.

b. Maria had to get used to living in New York City.

c. New York is noisy and crowded.

d. Maria soon learned to imitate her fellow workers.

My first time on horseback was embarrassing. I had never been on a horse in my life, but I was afraid to admit it. That’s probably where my trouble started. When I lifted my foot to put it into the stirrup, my friend Sally laughed. “Use the other foot, silly,” she said. Blushing beet red, I laughed too. I used the other foot. Then it took me about 10 minutes to swing up into the saddle. The horse kept moving and I scampered along on one foot while Sally giggled. Finally mounted, I looked down. I felt as if I were sitting on a mountain! Fortunately, Sally had chosen a gentle mare for me. I realize now she wasn’t fooled. She knew I didn’t know the first thing about riding. She really is a good friend. After a while, I learned to relax a little. I was actually riding a horse and it was fun. I even learned how to use the reins to guide the horse to the left and to the right.

1. What is the topic sentence?

2. Why did the narrator of the story state that Sally was a good friend?

Reread paragraphs 105-108 of the story. Then answer the multiple-
choice question that follows. First, answer Part A. Then, answer Part B.
From "B. Wordsworth" by V.S. Naipaul
105 One day when I went to see him in his little house, I found him
lying on his little bed. He looked so old and so weak, that I found
myself wanting to cry.
106 He said, "The poem is not going well."
107 He wasn't looking at me. He was looking through the window at
the coconut tree, and he was speaking as though I wasn't there. He
said, "When I was twenty I felt the power within myself." Then, almost
in front of my eyes, I could see his face growing older and more tired.
He said, "But that-that was a long time ago."
108 And then I felt it so keenly, it was as though I had been slapped
by my mother. I could see it clearly on his face. It was there for
everyone to see. Death on the shrinking face.
Part A
Which statement best describes the conflicting perspectives conveyed
in these paragraphs?
A. The creole-speaking narrator is an inexperienced writer who does not
understand his friend's desire to write in colonial British English.
B. The young, relatively privileged narrator is overwhelmed by sadness when
he sees the toll that poverty and age are taking on his friend.
C. The youthful and energetic narrator is disappointed when he finally starts to
understand that his friend is old and infirm.
D. The narrator's history of conflict with his mother has prepared him to deal
with a variety of conflicts with other people.
Part B
What details from the passage best support your answer to Part A?
A. When B. Wordsworth looks at the coconut tree instead of at his friend and
speaks as though his friend is not there, these details suggest that the two
characters have a conflict that they are not able to resolve.
B. The narrator's recollection of his mother slapping his face reminds him that
he can overcome conflict and intense emotions by spending time with his
friend. This is a difficult realization because his friend is sick.
C. The narrator describes the sadness and alarm he feels when he
understands that his friend will soon die. Details about B. Wordsworth's age
and condition suggest that poverty has shortened his life.
D. The narrator has not had any friends who died, so it is challenging for him
to process what is happening. Because he does not know what to say at this

Read this passage
"The people of Goderville, and all those present at the market are informed that between nine and ten
o'clock this morning on the Beuzeville road, a black leather wallet was lost, containing five hundred
francs, and business papers. The finder is requested to carry it to the mayor's at once, or to Master
Fortuné Huelbrèque of Manneville. A reward of twenty francs will be paid."
Then he went away. They heard once more in the distance the muffled roll of the drum
and the
indistinct voice of the crier.
Then they began to talk about the incident, reckoning Master Houlbrèque's chance of finding or not finding his wallet.
And the meal went on.
They were finishing their coffee when the corporal of gendarmes appeared in the doorway.
He inquired: "Is Master Hauchecorne of Bréauté here?"
Master Hauchecorne, who was seated at the farther end of the table, answered:
"Here I am."
And the corporal added:
"Master Hauchecorne, will you be kind enough to go to the mayor's office with me?
Monsieur the
mayor would like to speak to you."
The peasant, surprised and disturbed, drank his petit verre at one swallow, rose, and even more bent
than in the morning, for the first steps after each rest were particularly painful, he started off, repeating:
"Here I am, here I am."
And he followed the brigadier.
The mayor was waiting for him, seated in his arm-chair. He was the local notary, a stout, solemn-faced
man, given to pompous speeches.
"Master Hauchecorne," he said, "you were seen this morning, on the Beuzeville road, to pick up the
wallet lost by Master Huelbrèque of
Manneville."
The rustic, dumfounded, stared at the mayor, already alarmed by this suspicion which had fallen upon
him, although he failed to understand it.
"I, I-I picked up that wallet?"
"Yes, you."
"On my word of honor, I didn't even so much as see it."
"You were seen."
"They saw me, me? Who was it saw me?"
"Monsieur Malandain, the harness-maker."
Thereupon the old man remembered and understood; and flushing with anger, he cried:
"Ah! he saw me, did he, that sneak? He saw me pick up this string, look, m'sieu' mayor."
And fumbling in the depths of his pocket, he produced the little niece of cord. But the mayor was incredulous and shook his head.
"You won't make me believe, Master Hauchecorne, that Monsieur Malandain, who is a man
deserving of credit, mistook this string for a wallet."
The peasant, in a rage, raised his hand, spit to one side to pledge his honor, and said:
"It's God's own truth, the sacred truth, all the same, m'sieu' mayor. I say it again, by my soul and my salvation."
"After picking it up," rejoined the mayor, "you hunted a long while in the mud, to see if some piece of money hadn't fallen out."
The good man was suffocated with wrath and fear.
"If any one can tell-if any one can tell lies like that to ruin an honest man! If any one can say-"
To no purpose did he protest; he was not believed. He was confronted with Monsieur Malandain, who repeated and maintained his declaration. They
insulted each other for a whole hour. At his own request, Master Hauchecorne was searched. They
found nothing on him. At last the mayor, being sorely perplexed, discharged him, but warned him that
he proposed to inform the prosecuting attorney's office and to ask for orders.


What can you conclude about the mayor based on his interaction with Master Hauchecorne in the passage above? chose from the following
A. He does not believe Master Hauchecorne but has to let him go.
OB. He is opportunistic and uses the law to suit his interests
OC. He is broad-minded and does not jump to conclusions.
OD. He believes Master Hauchecorne but is compelled to act against him.

He had a fever when he was in Spain,
And when the fit was on him, I did mark
How he did shake: 'tis true, this god did shake;
His coward lips did from their colour fly,
And that same eye whose bend doth awe the world
Did lose his luster: I did hear him groan:
Ay, and that tongue of his that bade the Romans
Mark him and write his speeches in their books,
Alas, it cried 'Give me some drink, Titinius,'
As a sick girl. Ye gods, it doth amaze me
A man of such a feeble temper should
So get the start of the majestic world
And bear the palm alone.
