Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 4.11 Distinguish Rights from Privileges skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Which choice best explains whether the rule is about a right or a privilege?

ARIGHT: getting a seat in a free city class is a right because the city program offers it, which means it applies to everyone no matter what.

BRIGHT: everyone must get getting a seat in a free city class all the time, even if there are safety rules or limited supplies.

CPRIVILEGE: getting a seat in a free city class is a privilege because it is protected by law for all people, so it can’t be limited.

DThis rule is about a PRIVILEGE: the class is a service with limited seats, so access can be limited by fair rules like registration order, and it controls getting a seat in a free city class.

Solution & Explanation:The free class is a privilege because it is a program the city chooses to offer and it has limited space. Registration rules manage resources fairly.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Which choice best explains whether the rule is about a right or a privilege?

ARIGHT: borrowing recess sports equipment is guaranteed to every person by the Constitution, so it cannot be restricted.

BIt’s a PRIVILEGE—using shared equipment is a benefit that depends on taking care of it and returning it—and it concerns borrowing recess sports equipment.

CRIGHT: borrowing recess sports equipment is a right because the recess staff offers it, which means it applies to everyone no matter what.

DPRIVILEGE: borrowing recess sports equipment is a privilege because it belongs to every person and cannot be taken away.

Solution & Explanation:Recess equipment use is a privilege because it uses school property. Not returning equipment breaks the rules, so the privilege can be limited.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Which choice best explains whether the rule is about a right or a privilege?

APRIVILEGE: the event host is giving permission for performing at open mic after using slurs, so it can be taken away whenever the event host wants.

BPRIVILEGE: performing at open mic after using slurs is a reward for good behavior, so the event host can remove it as a consequence.

CThis is a RIGHT issue since speaking is a right, but participation in a specific event is managed; slurs can be limited to protect others from harassment; it affects performing at open mic after using slurs.

DRIGHT: performing at open mic after using slurs is a right because most people like it and want it.

Solution & Explanation:Expression is a right, but open mic participation is organized and must protect others’ rights. Removing someone for repeated slurs helps prevent harassment.
