If you want to make a difference in your community, one option to consider is running for office. Most cities and towns have many elected positions, from school board to city council to mayor, and any citizen over 18 years old can run. Once you're elected, you'll have the opportunity to help solve problems and make decisions to improve people's lives. Plus, you can consider running for higher offices, like state representative, governor, or even president! Of course, getting elected is usually not easy. Even local positions are highly competitive, and you'll need to be organized and hardworking to run a successful political campaign. Before you run, you should be prepared to raise money, give speeches, and have a well-thought-out plan about what you want to accomplish once elected. But the most important thing you can do is to get to know as many people as you can in your community, because your friends and neighbors may well become your greatest supporters. Which statement best summarizes two central ideas of the text?

A. More people should consider getting involved with local politics; the best way to get ahead in local politics is to get to know your neighbors.

B. If you want to be president, you should start by running in a local election; even a local election is not necessarily easy to win.

C. Running for office is a great way to get involved with local affairs; a lot of work and detail goes into a successful election campaign.

D. Politicians are usually motivated by the desire to help others; even with the best intentions, you might not win a political election.​

Read this mythical poem "Phaethon's Pride." Impatient Phaethon Read this mythical poem "Phaethon's Pride." Impatient Phaethon bragged about his dad: Great Helios, that Titan, brave and strong. No one believed his story. He felt sad. He vowed to find his father and belong. He traveled to the palace of the sun, And found his father, Helios, at last. The mighty Titan beamed with pride, his son To see, and longed to know all that had passed. "Dear Father," said the mortal, "I have come In search of truth. For all claim that I lie." "My son, these rumors we will overcome. Ask bragged about his dad: Great Helios, that Titan, brave and strong. No one believed his story. He felt sad. He vowed to find his father and belong. He traveled to the palace of the sun, And found his father, Helios, at last. The mighty Titan beamed with pride, his son To see, and longed to know all that had passed. "Dear Father," said the mortal, "I have come In search of truth. For all claim that I lie." "My son, these rumors we will overcome. Ask what you will. No wish will I deny." Then Phaethon wished to be just like this man, To drive his chariot from east to west. His father pleaded for a different plan To save his son from such a fatal quest. But Phaethon took the reins. He flat refused To heed sound council. All the horses knew. New hands were on the reins. They grew confused. With wild hearts, straight down to Earth they flew. The sun they dragged burned up the mighty trees. The waters shrank beneath the fiery heat. Then Phaethon flew so high, he froze the seas. He lost the reins and fell out of his seat. For damaged Earth had called to Zeus for aid. He'd seen plains turned to deserts, seas to ice. Zeus threw a bolt of lightning. In dismay, He watched as Phaethon fell and paid the price. Now no one knows the end of Phaethon's plight. Did he survive his fall or try to hide? But one and all agree that Phaethon's flight Taught all to practice humbleness, not pride. Which line or lines from the poem best support the overall theme?
