Use the following vignette for the question(s) that follow.
Four teachers were talking in the teachers' lounge. "What are you doing?" Manuel asked.
"I just got my Elementary School Journal today," Juanita responded. "They always have an article or two that helps me. This one has a good article on what we can do to get kids from disadvantaged backgrounds to be more conscientious about their work. I work so hard, but I really need the help."
"Wow, impressive," Manuel waved. "How in the world do you have time to read journals? I can barely keep my head above water with all the paperwork."
"Me too," David, who was sitting nearby, put in. "Besides, there isn't much we can do for some of these kids. Doing extra reading isn't going to help all that much. I'd rather have someone tell me how to get them to behave."
"It isn't quite that bad," Rey retorted. "I know these kids have trouble, but we have to try as hard as possible to help them.
