You read about a proposed amendment to require all students to remain in high school until they are able to pass all required courses. You argue that it will not become an amendment. Based on Amendments 11 to 27, why would you argue that it will NOT become an amendment?
Answer
A
It will not pass because amendments only change voting rights and taxes.
B
It will not pass because amendments only affect people over 18 years old.
C
It will not pass because most proposed amendments do not pass.
D
It will not pass because proposing amendments is no longer allowed.
Explanation
Amendments 11 through 27 address many different topics, not only voting rights and taxes, and they are not limited to people over 18. The amendment process also remains available. The strongest reason to predict this proposal will not become an amendment is that many proposed amendments fail to be ratified; therefore, C is correct.
