Answer to Question 1

An ideal response would be:
Unlike the federal Constitution, amended only 27 times in more than 220 years, most state constitutions are amended on a regular basis. Although no entirely new state constitution has been adopted since the 1980s, the process of constitutional amendment allows state governments and voters to modify and modernize constitutions to fit changing conditions. Nearly 1,300 amendments were proposed between 1998 and 2012, affecting nearly every state constitution. Many were limited in scope, concerning only local issues or specific state agencies. However, others affected states' bills of rights, broad finance and taxation issues, and electoral processes.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: d

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.
