Answer to Question 1

Students should discuss assignment of benefits, which is what Cage did when he made a promise of the proceeds to her. The students might also raise whether the promise had to be in writing. Absent some specific state statutes on lottery split arrangements, the agreement does not fit into any of the Statute of Frauds requirements. The students might also discuss whether the shop server was an incidental beneficiary or credit or donee beneficiary in the relationship.

Answer to Question 2

B

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
