Contemporary young adults differ significantly from young adults 30-40 years ago because they:
 
  a. mature earlier physically, they know more cognitively, and they have social preoccupations with friends.
  b. mature cognitively in such a manner that they have cognitive experiences more in alignment with middle and high school curricular expectations.
  c. are better prepared to meet the academic expectations of a more demanding middle and high school.
  d. have less peer pressure due mainly to developmentally appropriate middle school experiences where they learn the dangers of sexual experimentation and the dangers of alcohol and drug abuse.

Question 2

Young adult literature should be used:
 
  a. mainly for young adults' enjoyment rather than for curricular purposes because traditional textbooks are better designed for teaching-learning purposes.
  b. only in traditional literature classes where they can take the place of the older classics which students consider outdated and boring.
  c. mainly in departmentalized English classes where one teacher can teach the literary aspects of the book.
  d. throughout the school curriculum, either with an integrating theme across subject areas, or as a part of an interdisciplinary unit.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
