Read the story.
An eight-year old boy named Justin lived next door. He had brown hair, brown eyes, and a few freckles. He was fairly short for his age. This summer, Justin was learning to ride his skateboard. He practiced every day until he could balance and stay on his board without falling off. He then tried to jump off the curb and land on his board without crashing. He tried and tried, but each time, he fell off. Finally, he picked up his skateboard, threw it on the ground, and began to cry. At the same time, the neighbor across the street watching from her window saw him throw his skateboard and decided that Justin had a terrible temper. “Because he’s so small, he just can’t skate very well,” she said.
What wrong idea did Justin’s neighbor have?
small boys should not ride skateboards
boys with brown hair and brown eyes should not ride skateboards
children should not play outside in the road
Justin has a bad temper

Read the passage.
“Cheers to the former Idaho Gov. Phil Batt. He’s being recognized later this month with American Civil Liberties Union’s Equal Justice Award. If he did nothing else, Batt deserves the honor simply for creating the Idaho Human Rights Commission 33 years ago when he was an Idaho lawmaker. But consider Batt’s record as governor in the mid-1990s. He went against members of his own party - indeed his own profession - to insist on equal treatment for farm workers under Idaho’s worker compensation law.
He vigorously condemned neo-Nazis who had set up operations in northern Idaho. And he put logic ahead of politics by commuting the death sentence of Donald M. Paradis – the man the courts later freed when new evidence proved him innocent of a 20-year-old murder.
From the article, Tom can prove that Gov. Batt is:
concerned about human rights
a good family man
a hard working man
a religious man
