Congress had changed the meaning of the First Amendment, rather than enforcing it. Congress had given states too much freedom to interpret the First Amendment.

The Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 was passed in light of the Supreme Court upholding an Oregon state decision to deny two American Indian men unemployment benefits for having taken a banned substance which they normally use in their religious events.
Congress passed this bill with only 3 Senators opposing it so that it could prevent such from happening again.
The Supreme Court however ruled the Act as unconstitutional as it claimed that Congress was overexerting its powers by: changing the meaning of the First Amendment, creating a law that was disproportionate to the problems it was fixing and overexerting federal power on states and taking away their rights to manage their affairs in this regard.
Answer:
- Congress had changed the meaning of the First Amendment, rather than enforcing it.
- Congress had created a law that was not proportional to the problem it was fixing.
- Congress had taken away states’ rights by passing the RFRA.

D) Read the following passage and rewrite as directed. (5X42=242)
1. They gave the chief a brown paper bag. 2. I saw him smiling as the lorries drove
away. 3. Then after some time, he started university in Lagos. 4. He started speaking to
himself, we all thought he had gone mad. 5. He said to us, "These drums are poisonours
and vey dangerous".
1. Change the sentence in passive voice.
Lotto
2. Pick out the phrasal verb from the sentence.
3. Add a suitable question tag.
4. Identify the tense of the underlined sentence.
5. Change the sentence into reported speech.
Answer and Explanation:
Using the directions given, let's make the necessary changes or identifications in the sentences:
1. They gave the chief a brown paper bag. --> (Passive Voice) A brown paper bag was given to the chief.
In the passive voice, what was the object of the verb in the original sentence becomes the subject in the new sentence. The purpose is to emphasize the receiver of the action instead of the performer.
2. I saw him smiling as the lorries drove away.
A phrasal verb is an idiomatic phrase formed by a verb and a preposition, a verb and an adverb, or a combination of both. In sentence two, the phrasal verb "drive away" is in its past form, "drove away".
3. Then after some time, he started university in Lagos, didn't he?
A question tag is a short question added to the ending of the sentence with the purpose of confirming the information previously state. It should be in the same tense and have the same subject as the sentence.
4. He started speaking to himself, we all thought he had gone mad.
There are not underlined verbs in the sentence, so let's identify each verb and its tense just to make sure.
- started - simple past
- thought - simple past
- had gone - past perfect
5. He said to us, "These drums are poisonous and very dangerous". --> (Reported Speech) He told us the drums were poisonous and very dangerous.
When we report what someone said, we usually change the verb tense to the past form of the one used in the original sentence. In this case, "are" is simple present. It was changed to "were", simple past, in the reported sentence.
6. What is the difference between narrative point of view and
character point of view?
The difference between narrative point of view and character point of view is that character point of view is when the story is told as seen from the main character in the story, (Ex: Percy Jackson, Harry Potter.) and narrative point of view is when they story is told by the narrarator (Ex: A series of Unfortunate events.)
Answer:
The difference between those two is that narrative point of view refers to how the narrator or author narrates the story (E.g who will be speaking or days time of scene of the story) whereas the character point of view refers to his/her view in the story (E.g how she/he feels or think) basical the character itself is the one speaking. In shorter term narrative point of view is for the author while the character point of view is for the character in a story

Explanation:
You haven't provided the complete question, but I found a similar one online. I assume that your task is to correct punctuation, especially quotation marks.
Quotation marks are used in direct speech - when you want to relay someone's words in the exact way they were spoken. Quoted words will be framed by quotation marks. In this case, the reporting clause (the part that doesn't contain quoted words) will be separated from quoted words by a comma. Commas and periods are always included inside the quotation marks, as you can see in the Answer section.

Write a summary of Nights and Dragons—From the memoir of author Abigail Prynne
Answer:
The sound of thunder reminds the author of her ideas on whether dragons could have been real or not. She explains that she has always had a fascination with dragons that she saw in storybooks, paintings, movies, and even her dreams, and decided a an early age to find out if they were real. Despite finding that most scientists have strong evidence to prove dragons did not exist, she found inspiration in her grandmother´s words to keep her quest.
Explanation:
Then she found that many different cultures had described dragons in similar ways, and not only fictional as they were present in old legal papers, travel logs, and even the Bible, which led her to believe that the creature could actually have existed. Furthermore, she found some Biologists who strongly disagreed with the prevailing evidence against dragons.
She remains unsure of the answer, but the thunder reminds her of dragons, rekindling her childhood dreams and keeping the fascinating possibility alive.

Use the chart to compare the themes and tools used to develop themes in ""He Had His Dream"" and in the excerpt from Little Women. Answer each question completely and record related textual details.
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Use the chart to compare the themes and tools used to develop themes in ""He Had His Dream"" and in the excerpt from Little Women. Answer each question completely and record related textual details.
What is the theme?
What details in the text develop the theme?
How do plot events shape the theme?
How do characters shape the theme?
How are the themes similar and different?
How is the theme development similar and different?
Answer and Explanation:
1. The theme is that we must follow our dreams no matter what.
2. The text shows that while we are trying to achieve our dream, there will be "toil and strife" and strong storms trying to stop us.
3. The characters have their own dreams and difficulties very different from each other. They manage to overcome these difficulties, being resilient and persevering.
4. Both texts show the importance of pursuing objectives, but the poem shows that this search is lonely, while the book shows that the search must be shared with the family that will help progress.
5. In the poem the development of the theme is done through a monologue of the prayer, which animates itself by being perseverance. In the book, the theme develops through various situations that often seem unsolved, but that can be overcome with unity and love.
