If you want to make a difference in your community, one option to consider is running for office. Most cities and towns have many elected positions, from school board to city council to mayor, and any citizen over 18 years old can run. Once you're elected, you'll have the opportunity to help solve problems and make decisions to improve people's lives. Plus, you can consider running for higher offices, like state representative, governor, or even president! Of course, getting elected is usually not easy. Even local positions are highly competitive, and you'll need to be organized and hardworking to run a successful political campaign. Before you run, you should be prepared to raise money, give speeches, and have a well-thought-out plan about what you want to accomplish once elected. But the most important thing you can do is to get to know as many people as you can in your community, because your friends and neighbors may well become your greatest supporters. Which statement best summarizes two central ideas of the text?

A. More people should consider getting involved with local politics; the best way to get ahead in local politics is to get to know your neighbors.

B. If you want to be president, you should start by running in a local election; even a local election is not necessarily easy to win.

C. Running for office is a great way to get involved with local affairs; a lot of work and detail goes into a successful election campaign.

D. Politicians are usually motivated by the desire to help others; even with the best intentions, you might not win a political election.​

How does America's culture and way of life influence immigrants to move to America?

Read the poem "I Hear America Singing" by Walt Whitman.

I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear;
Those of mechanics—each one singing his, as it should be, blithe and strong;
The carpenter singing his, as he measures his plank or beam,
The mason singing his, as he makes ready for work, or leaves off work;
The boatman singing what belongs to him in his boat—the deckhand singing on the steamboat deck;
The shoemaker singing as he sits on his bench—the hatter singing as he stands;
The wood-cutter's song—the ploughboy's, on his way in the morning, or at the noon intermission, or at sundown;
The delicious singing of the mother—or the young wife at work—or of the girl sewing or washing—Each singing what belongs to her, and to none else;
The day what belongs to the day—At night, the party of young fellows, robust, friendly,
Singing, with open mouths, their strong melodious songs.

Which best paraphrases the line "Each singing what belongs to her, and to none else"?

A. American laborers do not share their work.
B. Each woman does only one job on her own.
C. Every job is unique and valuable to America.
D. Women in America work just as hard as men.
