Which sentence in the paragraph should be revised to reflect a formal style and objective tone?
In William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, the characters Brutus and Cassius express concerns about Caesar’s rule over Rome and eventually rebel against him. In fact, Cassius describes Caesar “Like a Colossus” and the people of Rome as “petty men” walking beneath him. In my opinion, this metaphor emphasizes Cassius’s obvious problem with Caesar. After the conspiracy against Caesar takes place, Brutus appeals to the Roman people by asking them “Had you rather Caesar were living and die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live all free men?” This question supports the idea that if they had not rebelled against Caesar, the Roman people would have lost their freedom.

Lately, there does not seem to be a clear line determining what we can and cannot joke about. For example, there is a lot of humor out there that expresses hatred of women. This kind of humor has frightening impacts. Dr. Thomas Ford, a psychologist from Western Carolina University, ran a study of such humor. He found a direct link between the enjoyment of these jokes and related behavior. People who enjoy humor that is hateful to women, the study reports, also show a greater willingness to discriminate against women. It's not honest to say it's "just a joke." The impacts are very real.


Which sentence BEST summarizes the paragraph?


A. Dr. Ford's study showed that people who enjoy hateful jokes about women are more likely to treat women badly.


B. Dr. Ford's study showed that there is a lot of humor on the internet right now that shows a hatred of women.

Source 1: Single-sex Education: The Pros and Cons
By Kristin Stanberry

Single-sex education (teaching boys and girls in separate classrooms or schools) is an old approach that’s gaining new momentum. While single-sex education has long existed in many private schools, it’s a relatively new option for public schools. The National Association for Single-Sex Public Education estimates that approximately 400 public schools now offer some form of single-sex education. What is fueling this movement? And what are the risks and benefits of single-sex education?
A driving force in the single-sex education movement is recent research showing natural differences in how males and females learn. Putting this research into practice, however, has triggered a debate that extends beyond pure academics. Political, civil rights, socioeconomic and legal concerns also come into play.
Before weighing the pros and cons of single-sex education, consider the influences of “nature versus nurture.” Many factors affect each child’s learning profile and preferences:
Some factors relate to the child’s nature, such as gender, temperament, abilities (and disabilities), and intelligence.
Other influences stem from the way parents and society nurture the child: Family upbringing, socioeconomic status, culture and stereotypes all fall under the “nurture” category.
Some parents don’t want their children to be in mixed-gender classrooms because, especially at certain ages, students of the opposite sex can be a distraction.
Leonard Sax, founder of the National Association for Single-Sex Public Education, and others agree that merely placing boys in separate classrooms from girls accomplishes little. But single-sex education enhances student success when teachers use techniques geared toward the gender of their students.
Some research and reports from educators suggest that single-sex education can broaden the educational prospects for both girls and boys. Advocates claim co-ed schools tend to reinforce gender stereotypes, while single-sex schools can break down gender stereotypes. For example, girls are free of the pressure to compete with boys in male-dominated subjects such as math and science. Boys, on the other hand, can more easily pursue traditionally “feminine” interests such as music and poetry. One mother, whose daughter has attended a girls-only school for three years, shared her experience on the GreatSchools parent community: “I feel that the single gender environment has given her a level of confidence and informed interest in math and science that she may not have had otherwise.”
The fact remains that there are relatively few single-sex schools in our nation’s public education system, and where they do exist, they are offered as an option rather than a requirement. If the single-sex education movement continues, you may find yourself in a position to vote for or against it in your own community.
