Prompt Review the reading selection used in the practice exam. Make a journal of all dense or unfamiliar vocabulary found in the
passage, the stems, or the answers. Look up and record the actual definitions from The Beast by Ben B. Lindsey and
Harvey J. O'Higgins ["The Children's Judge," who founded the first children's court in America, tells the story of his fight with
the powers of privilege in Colorado. In the following extract, he narrates what came of a newspaper interview on the subject
of the conditions under which children were kept in prison.) The result was an article that took even my breath away when I
read it next day on the front page of the newspaper. It was the talk of the town. It was certainly the talk of the Police Board;
and Mr. Frank Adams talked to the reporters in a high voice, indiscreetly. He declared that the boys were liars, that I was
"crazy," and that conditions in the jails were as good as they could be. This reply was exactly what we wished. I demanded an
investigation. The Board professed to be willing, but set no date. We promptly set one for them—the following Thursday at
two o'clock in my chambers at the Court House
and I invited to the hearing Governor Peabody, Mayor Wright, fifteen
prominent ministers in the city, and the Police Board and some members of the City Council. (1) On Thursday morning—to
my horror I learned from a friendly Deputy Sheriff that the subpoenas I had ordered sent to a number of boys whom I knew
as jail victims had not been served. I had no witnesses. And in three hours the hearing was to begin. I appealed to the
Deputy Sheriff to help me. He admitted that he could not get the boys in less than two days. "Well then," I said, "for heaven's
sake, get me Mickey." (2) And Mickey? Well, Mickey was known to fame as "the worst kid in town." As such, his portrait had

Will anyone be able to check for grammatical errors and give an opinion on the essay itself? write about the following topic: some people believe that allowing children to make their own cholces on everyday matters (such as food, clothes and entertainment) is likely to result in a society of individuals who only think about their own wishes. other people believe that it is important for children to make decisions about matters that affect them. discuss both these views and give your own opinion. —— nowadays, in this busy and fast developing world teaching children from an early age to cope with their own decisions (such as food, clothes etc.) and then take the coincidences after that is something that a lot of people believe that it is important for them. on the other hand other people think that it might end up in a society of humans who put their wishes before anyone else's. but which one of these views will predominate? firstly, the people who allow their children to make their own decisions are the people who everyone should look up to. it is important to let your children learn from the mistakes their make. the parents can not be with them all the time every day and for that reason, teaching them to deal with their decisons or even problems will them in the future. of course, there are always disadvantages such as some people may really forget about that their children will need them at a certain point in life and may loose connection whit them. but that is why it should have that moderately path, where kids will make their own decisions but will feel comfortable to always ask for a advice tueur parents. on the other hand, there are and the second type of parents which think that too much individualism is not good. it really depends on the parents how they will teach their children to carry on with the independence they have. a lot of them might forget that they are still kids and will need and advices from time to time and because of that the parents turn their kids in individuals who only think about their own wishes due to the fact that they are let on their own and have to cope with everyone and everything by themselves. in conclusion, i think that the best decision someone can make is to look up to the first type of parents. that way they will be able to train their children to become independent people who will respect the wishes of others and they will be able to cope with their decisions in the future when they need it.
