Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Supporters believe that teaching children in their native language will help build or maintain a sense of identity among ethnic or racial minorities and will help with reading comprehension and the acquisition of basic English skills. Opponents believe that such programs are harmful because they separate groups from one another and discourage students from mastering English well enough to function successfully in the larger society.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: Between 1972 and 1982, the study that evaluated the Emergency School Aid Act found that desegregation worked when 1) resources were focused on attaining goals, 2) administrative leadership was outstanding, 3) parents were more involved in the classroom and 4) staff promoted interracial attitudes.

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.
