Belle аnd Jоck hаd а stоrmy relatiоnship, and they had a fight and decided to stop seeing each other. After a few hours passed, Jock decided he wanted to reconcile with Belle. So that night, he went to Belle's house and knocked on the front door. There was no answer. He went around to the back yard and looked in the bedroom window. He saw Belle on the bed with another man and both were naked. Jock ran back around to the front door and kicked it in. Then he ran back to his car that was parked by the curb near the front door, and he retrieved a loaded handgun from the glove compartment. Then he ran straight up the front walk and into the house. He kept running, and when he got to the bedroom door, he kicked it down, ran into the bedroom, and confronted Belle and the unknown man. Belle screamed at Jock and Joc yelled at the man to "get out of this house!" The man raced out of the bedroom with Jock in pursuit; Jock kept holding out the gun and pointing it at the man, as he chased the man through the house. The man ran through the front door space, jumped over the broken door, and started running down the street. Jock followed right behind the man and kept chasing him for three blocks. Suddenly, the man jumped into an empty car that was parked at the side of the road. Jock screamed, "No you don't!" and pointed the gun at the windshield. Then Jock fired through the windshield. The bullet hit the man, Vic, in the head and he died instantly. Jock was arrested soon afterwards because Belle called the police. Assume that the prosecutor charges Jock with murder and that the mens rea for this crime is defined as purposely or knowingly causing death. Jock's defense counsel, Amy, persuades the trial judge to instruct the jury that voluntary manslaughter is also an appropriate verdict option. Jock is convicted of murder. On appeal, his defense counsel Amy argues that the murder conviction should be reversed and that the verdict should be reduced to voluntary manslaughter. Which of the following arguments will be made by Jock's defense counsel to show that there is sufficient evidence for a verdict of voluntary manslaughter? When Jock shot through the windshield, he did not know that his bullet would kill Vic. During the interval between the time that Jock saw Vic and Belle through the window and the time that Jock fired his gun, there was no cooling time. The sight of Vic and Belle through the window was adequate provocation. Evidence of heat of passion is shown by Jock's conduct in kicking down two doors, screaming, and chasing Vic for three blocks.

The Pоwer оf Phоtogrаphy A               In 2014, аpproximаtely 1.8 billion photographs were uploaded to the Internet each day. Today, everyone is a subject, and knows it—soon we will be adding "the unguarded moment" to the endangered species list. Yet certain photographs have the power to do more than just document lives—they change lives. They can transport us to unseen worlds. They can profoundly alter the way we see things. And while most of us are taking pictures of our breakfast, there are those fortunate few who take photographs for a living: professional photographers. B              People often romanticize the life of a National Geographic photographer. Yes, they travel the world. They are witnesses to all earthly beauty. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy. They must overcome daily obstacles (flight delays, inhospitable weather), and are often interrupted by disaster (broken bones, imprisonment). Away from home for many months at a time—missing birthdays, holidays, school plays—they can find themselves in dangerous situations. Or sitting in a tree for a week. Or eating bugs for dinner. C              Still, these photographers wouldn’t have it any other way. Their work reflects different passions: human conflict and disappearing cultures, big cats and tiny insects, the desert and the sea. Yet they share similar qualities as well. They each have a hunger for the unknown, the courage to be ignorant, and the wisdom to recognize that, as one says, “the photograph is never taken—it is always given.” D              Photographers often sit for days, even weeks, with their subjects, listening to them, learning what it is they have to teach the world, before at last lifting the camera to the eye. They have spent years in the worlds of Sami reindeer herders, Japanese geisha, and New Guinea birds of paradise. Their tremendous commitment can be seen in their photographs. What’s not visible is their sense of responsibility toward those who dared to trust the stranger by opening the door to their quiet world. These photographers view photography as teamwork, a collaborative venture between two souls on either side of the lens. E               In a world seemingly numbed by a daily avalanche of images, can photographs such as this still tell us something important about ourselves and about the imperiled beauty of the world we live in? Photographers use their cameras as tools of exploration, and as instruments for change. Their images are proof that photography matters—now more than ever.   This reading is mainly about ____.
