Answer to Question 1

(Answer: b)

Answer to Question 2

Radical-Left View: Because schools operate within a social system marked by striking inequality of wealth and power, they fail much of the U.S. population and perpetuate class differences.
Liberal View: Although schools are educating more young people than ever before, they lack the funds and programs to meet the needs of some categories of the population.
Conservative View: Schools are a government monopoly that is neither efficient nor accountable. As a near government monopoly, schools fail to educate a significant share of young people.
