The U.S. Supreme Court hears arguments Tuesday in two homicide cases testing whether it is unconstitutionally cruel and unusual punishment to sentence a 14-year-old to life in prison without the possibility of parole. There are currently 79 of these juvenile killers who will die in prison. What s more, in many states, the penalty is mandatory, meaning neither judge nor jury is allowed to consider the youngster s age or background in meting out the sentence. In cases dealing with punishment for juveniles, context is everything. In 2005, the Supreme

The author's main purpose in writing this article is to discuss the debate surrounding the constitutionality of imposing life without parole sentences on juveniles convicted of homicide. The author presents arguments from both sides of the debate and provides evidence and examples to support these arguments.

One piece of evidence that showcases the author's purpose is the statement, "Bryan Stevenson, the lawyer who represents the boys in both of these cases, will make two basic arguments before the Supreme Court. The first is that a mandatory punishment of life without parole for a 14-year-old is cruel and unusual punishment because the defendant's age and background are irrelevant and cannot mitigate punishment." This shows that one of the objectives of the article is to present the argument against the imposition of life without parole sentences on juveniles.

Furthermore, the author discusses cases of juveniles who have been rehabilitated and highlights success stories to support the argument against life without parole for young offenders. For instance, the article mentions individuals like Scott Filippi, Raphael Johnson, and Lawrence Wu, who turned their lives around after being involved in serious crimes during their youth. These examples provide evidence that supports the belief in the potential for juvenile offenders to rehabilitate and change.

Overall, the author aims to inform readers about the ongoing Supreme Court cases and the question of whether life without parole sentences for juveniles should be considered cruel and unusual punishment. The article presents both sides of the argument and emphasizes the potential for rehabilitation and the different level of culpability and responsibility attributed to juveniles in the criminal justice system.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is another excuse for a party,

a tame affair with pizzas and Ping-Pong.

For the first time, he has said no.

The Bengali celebration, held on the closest Saturday,

forty guests, dazzling saris,

a group of men starting a poker game.

Gogol is the oldest child,

but he and Moushumi have nothing to say.

She reads Pride and Prejudice,

while the children watch TV.

Presents are opened, dictionaries, calculators,

ugly sweaters, and more.

His father gives him a book,

The Short Stories of Nikolai Gogol.

Gogol examines the picture,

relieved to see no resemblance.

He hates questions about his name,

hates having to explain.

His name is both absurd and obscure,

neither Indian nor American.

He wishes he could disguise it,

shorten it somehow.

He dislikes being Gogol,

his father's favorite author.

He wishes he had been named Nikhil,

but it's too late now.

Gogol hates his name,

its irrelevance and weight.

But his father feels a kinship,

a special connection with Gogol.

He keeps the explanation to himself,

a silent secret. G

ogol locks the door,

settles down with his lyrics.

And he realizes,

Gogol isn't his first name.

It's Nikolai,

a last name turned first name.

The sentence from the passage that serves as a major supporting detail is: "A job provides you with valuable life experience" (paragraph 7).

Justification: This sentence provides additional information to support the idea that working during the school year can have benefits. It explains that a job can offer valuable experiences that go beyond what students typically learn in a classroom setting. The passage goes on to describe some of these experiences, such as interacting with strangers, developing self-confidence, and learning about different industries. These details help strengthen the argument that having a job during the school year can be valuable for students.

The statement that best expresses the irony present in the mentioned passage is:

“It is ironic that Aunt Polly is so strict outwardly with Tom and so tender-hearted toward him inwardly”.

Explanation:

The passage describes how Aunt Polly tries to find him in the house from every nook and corner of the house, and once she finds Tom she tries to curb him, but Tom, using his mind tac-tics, outsmarts her and gets a chance to run away from her.

This amuses Aunt Polly as she realizes how Tom always uses the same tricks on her but she never learns from them. This softens her heart as she realizes that children shall be children and that too her own dead sister’s son. She ponders how she needs to look out for him.

This shows that even though she may be strict with Tom from the outside, inwardly she cares and looks out for him.

I quite remember my first close encounter with our principal known to us as the Lion of Aye Hill, he was a most feared human being. The popular saying was that no other lion ever roared on Aye Hill on which the school was situated. So, when the senior prefect informed me the principal wanted to see me, I was particularly terrified. My friends too were concerned for few students were ever sent for unless they had committed some serious offence. Indeed, some had their dismissals or suspensions announced to them in the principal s office without the

a. The boy was afraid because he had heard from other students that his principal only saw students in his office when they had done something very wrong.

b. The boy had met his uncle on school property to get money from him.

c. The boy was surprised because he had heard that most students were not allowed to sit down in the principal's office.

d. The principal treated the boy this way because he knew the boy had lost his father and was only doing what he needed to do; he felt sympathy for him.

i. No, at first the reader's impression was supposed to be afraid of the principal and concerned for the boy, but by the end, they could see that the principal cared for his students and had a heart.

ii. One point that supports this answer is when the principal gave the boy money instead of repremending him.

i. This expression "waited for the storm to break" is an idiom.

ii. This means that the boy waited for everything to be okay again and to not be in trouble.

i. The expression "before I could recover from the shock" is a prepositional phrase*

ii. This means that something interrupted the boy while he was still surprised.

i. meeting

ii. anxious

iii. lumbered

iv. sneakily

v. uselessness
