A New Student at Grover High by Moll Flowers

At my last school, I'd seen new students come and go. Other students were always picking on the new kids. New kids didn't have friends yet, so there was no one to stick up for them. Eventually they would learn to keep to themselves and lay low.
I never guessed that I would end up being a new student myself. But here I was, in a new town where no one knew anything about me. It was my first day of school at Grover High, and I wanted nothing more than to simply fade into the background. I didn't want to make a fool of myself.
My attempt at being invisible didn't work, however. Kids kept coming up to me and introducing themselves. When people looked up at me with grins on their faces, I figured I had food stuck in my teeth, or maybe there was something wrong with my clothes. But no one laughed. Mainly, they were just curious about where I was from, and what life had been like at my previous school.
The kids were oddly well behaved. I wondered if the school building itself might have something to do with it. Whereas my last school had been overcrowded, making it difficult to be on time for class, here the hallways were roomy. There were no more than 15 or 20 kids in each class. I noticed they had new facilities, too.
At the end of my first day, my art teacher did something that I normally wouldn't have liked. She took my drawing of a mountain landscape and held it up in front of the class. She said it was a good example of three-dimensional perspective. I looked around and noticed that the other kids were actually impressed. They nodded at me respectfully and then returned to their drawings. I couldn't believe it. At that moment, a sense of calm came over me. I realized that Grover High was going to be unlike anything I'd ever experienced before.

Reread this portion of the excerpted text from common sense. men of passive tempers look somewhat lightly over the offenses of britain, and, still hoping for the best, are apt to call out, come, we shall be friends again for all this. but examine the passions and feelings of mankind. bring the doctrine of reconciliation to the touchstone of nature, and then tell me, whether you can hereafter love, honor, and faithfully serve the power that hath carried fire and sword into your land? if you cannot do all these, then are you only deceiving yourselves, and by your delay bringing ruin upon posterity. your future connection with britain, whom you can neither love nor honor, will be forced and unnatural, and being formed only on the plan of present convenience, will in a little time fall into a relapse more wretched than the first. what key concept about the relationship between an abusive government and its citizens does paine want readers to understand? use evidence from the text to support your response. your response should be one to two complete paragraphs.
