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.

請仔細閱讀文章最後一段，找找看那份「教育部備忘錄（memo）」特別強調了法案『僅適用於』哪種情境？而它『不適用』的情境，與湖郡學區最後對待那本企鵝繪本的方式有什麼關係呢？

太棒了！你能精準捕捉到文章末段的轉折，這代表你的閱讀細節掌握得非常扎實。
政策轉向的關鍵因果
這題的正解關鍵在於釐清**佛州教育部備忘錄（memo）**帶來的實質影響。文章最後一段提到，該備忘錄澄清了法案僅適用於「課堂教學（classroom instruction）」，而非「學校圖書館（school libraries）」。因此，湖郡（Lake County）學區隨即撤銷了對《探戈的三人世界》（And Tango Makes Three）的年齡限制。這項「解除限制」的舉動，正對應到選項 (B)，確認了學生在圖書館內仍可閱讀該書。
