Reading 5 Students in a Florida school district will be reading only excerpts from William Shakespeare's plays for class rather than the full texts under redesigned curriculum guides developed, in part, to take into consideration the state's “Don’t Say Gay” Laws. The changes to the Hillsborough County Public Schools' curriculum guides were made with Florida's new laws prohibiting classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity in mind. Other reasons included revised state standards and an effort to get students to read a wide variety of books for new state exams, the school district said in an emailed statement on Tuesday. Several Shakespeare plays use suggestive puns and innuendo, and it is implied that the protagonists have had premarital sex in "Romeo and Juliet." Shakespeare's books will be available for checkout at media centers at schools, said the district, which covers the Tampa area. "First and foremost, we have not excluded Shakespeare from our high school curriculum. Students will still have the physical books to read excerpts in class," the statement said. "Curriculum guides are continually reviewed and refined throughout the year to align with state standards and current law." In Lake County, outside Orlando, the school district reversed a decision, made in response to the legislation, to restrict access to a popular children's book about a male penguin couple hatching a chick. The School Board of Lake County and Florida education officials last week asked a federal judge to toss out a First Amendment lawsuit that students and the authors of "And Tango Makes Three" filed in June. Their complaint challenged the restrictions and Florida's new laws. The lawsuit is moot because age restrictions on "And Tango Makes Three" were lifted following a Florida Department of Education memo that said the new law applied only to classroom instruction and not school libraries, according to motions filed Friday by Florida education officials and school board members.

From the standpoint of the school district in the passage, how does reading excerpts from Shakespeare’s plays better reflect its alignment with the new state laws?
- A Excerpts are more straightforward and filled with less ironies.
- B Students read excerpts so that they will be able to enjoy the poetry better.
- C Excerpts tend to take out the details so that historical accuracy is no longer the focus.
- D Excerpts are short extracts from the original, and they don’t have to deal with the specifics on gender politics.
- E Activists on gender equality fail to see the merit of reading excerpts of great literary works.

如果有一條法規嚴格限制課堂上不能出現特定的敏感話題,而一部經典名著中正好同時包含了高水準的藝術精華與這些被禁止的話題。在不能完全棄讀名著的前提下,你會建議學校如何調整教材的「呈現形式」,好讓教學內容既能保留藝術價值,又能合法避開那些受限的爭議細節呢?

法律規範與教學內容的權衡
恭喜你精準地掌握了文章的細節!這題你選得非常正確。學校行政體系之所以選擇「節錄(excerpts)」,核心原因在於 Florida 的新法規限制了課堂對性傾向與性別認同的討論。由於莎士比亞的作品常包含暗示性的雙關語或未婚性行為等情節,透過節錄,學校可以有選擇性地過濾掉這些「細節」,在保留文學教育功能的同時,避開法律禁區中的性別政治議題。
