What can be the conclusion of this essay? Time really change pretty fast to be honest, and if it is change fast, kids from my generation and the new generation are changing fast every day, every hour that past by and this new gen is always bringing new morals and values to all of us. Being part of this generation, I have experienced a lot of things that is going on in school for example: Teens are becoming more involved in drinking alcohol and smoking.

In fact almost everyone starts to drink alcohol before way before graduating from high school and even worse is that 1/2 of this kids have tried by 8th grade. And 44% of teens have tried cigarettes by the end of high school. They always say that "I do it because doing this makes me look cool" but is this really alright tho? This is the message that kids now a days are reflecting to others and another cause of this is new gen music as well as movies. Modern music of today revolves around drugs, drinking, partying all night etc. Movies and TV shows glorify being arrested and drinking or smoking. Every four to five teens arrested are also very common because they are drunk or consuming to much drugs at the time. Is this really what we want for the new generations of kids?

Many people think that the only people harmed by tobacco use are smokers who have smoked for a long time. The fact is that tobacco use can be harmful to everyone specially teens. 90% of smokers start before age 18. About 1/3 of them die of smoking-related disease. Other may experience the same health problems as adult smokers.

Read the passage from the opinion of the court in brown v. board of education, written by justice warren. minors of the negro race, through their legal representatives, seek the aid of the courts in obtaining admission to the public schools of their community on a nonsegregated basis. in each instance, they had been denied admission to schools attended by white children under laws requiring or permitting segregation according to race. this segregation was alleged to deprive the plaintiffs of the equal protection of the laws under the fourteenth amendment. in each of the cases other than the delaware case, a three-judge federal district court denied relief to the plaintiffs on the so-called "separate but equal" doctrine announced by this court in plessy v. ferguson, 163 u.s. 537. under that doctrine, equality of treatment is accorded when the races are provided substantially equal facilities, even though these facilities be separate. in the delaware case, the supreme court of delaware adhered to that doctrine, but ordered that the plaintiffs be admitted to the white schools because of their superiority to the negro schools. which statement best describes the passage? a. warren explains the students’ position, then describes how it has been previously handled by the courts. b. warren provides reasons why segregation is permissible, then offers evidence to support the reasons. c. warren claims that the students don’t have grounds to sue, then gives reasons why not. d. warren gives a history of segregation in america, then explains how the students fit into that history.
