"I have long since learned who you Spanish are through others of you who came years ago to my land; and I already know very well what your customs and behavior are like. To me you are professional vagabonds who wander from place to place, gaining your livelihood by robbing, sacking, and murdering people who have given you no offense. I want no manner of friendship or peace with people such as you, but instead prefer mortal and perpetual hostility. . . . I promise to maintain war upon you so long as you wish to remain in my land. . . .
"I am king in my land, and it is unnecessary for me to become the subject of a person who has no more subjects than I. I regard men as vile and contemptible when they subject themselves to the yoke of someone else when they could instead live as free men. . . . I do not wish to know what your sovereign demands. . . . All of you should go away as quickly as you can if you do not want to perish at my hands."

Read the passage from The Odyssey - Penelope.
Ruses serve my turn
to draw the time out—first a close-grained web
I had the happy thought to set up weaving
on my big loom in the hall. I said, that day:
'Young men—my suitors, now my lord is dead
let me finish my weaving before I marry,
or else my thread will have been spun in vain.
It is a shroud I weave for Lord Laertes
when cold Death comes to lay him on his bier.
The country wives would hold me in dishonor
if he, with all his fortune, lay unshrouded.'
I reached their hearts that way, and they agreed.
So every day I wove on the great loom,
but every night by torchlight I unwove it;
and so for three years I deceived the Akhaians.
Which line from the passage best shows that Penelope is clever?
I had the happy thought to set up weaving
The country wives would hold me in dishonor

and so for three years I deceived the Akhaians

The District of Columbia's public school buildings are in poor condition. Buildings are old and falling apart, roofs are leaking, air, heat, and sewer systems need repair. The problem is so bad, schools did not open on time. National standardized test scores of DC students are some of the lowest in the country, and many of the District’s schools are in non-compliance with No Child Left Behind. Yet because of the building problems, curriculum development and improvement is now last on the priority list for DC public schools. Whose problem is it?
Answer:
It's the district's problem. Their district is most likely so involved in politics and political moves, they forget that their kids need to be educated. The school districts main job is to make sure education is being provided effectively, and efficiently. If the school district isn't doing that, they are failing terribly.
