Consider the passage and theme. devin kept a low profile in school. he attended classes and talked with his friends in the hall, but few knew him well. he rarely raised his hand in class and never spoke out of turn. even in band class, he refused to draw attention to himself. though he had earned the honor of first-chair saxophone, he did not reveal his passion for his instrument to his classmates. then, sophomore year, devin joined the marching band despite his fear of public scrutiny. the night of the first football game, his palms were sweating and his heart was racing as the band marched onto the field. but as soon as he began to play, his fears were forgotten, and through the glare of the lights he could see the crowd swaying and clapping to the music. devin was completely at ease during his solo, and after the game a friend told him, "you were great! i didn't know you had it in you." theme one: it is important to take risks. what other theme is addressed in the passage? people can reveal themselves through their passions. music entertains people with varied interests. a leader knows how to share the spotlight with others. shyness can prevent people from finding social success. mark this and return

Read the excerpt from suffragists' "great demand" banner. in 1917, more than one thousand women stood before the white house in a cold, pouring rain, holding silent vigil to demand a constitutional amendment to extend the vote to them. their quest to be enfranchised by law was known at the time as the great demand. the smithsonian's great demand banner, as it came to be called, declares in bold words and style the determination of the women who made and carried it. their campaign on behalf of women sought to move america one step closer to fulfilling the nation's long-deferred promise of equality under the law. which statements about this excerpt are correct? check all that apply.
