Explanation:

• 31. The Preamble, articles, and amendments are parts of the Constitution. The English Bill of Rights is a different historical document. The Bill of Rights is part of the Constitution, and the Declaration of Independence is a separate founding - era document.
• 32. Amendments such as the 15th (gave adult males of any race or color the right to vote), 19th (gave women the right to vote), and 26th (gave 18 - year - olds the right to vote) have extended the right to vote.
• 33. People generally have the right to demonstrate on public property. Demonstrating on private property without permission is illegal.
• 34. The police can break up a demonstration if it becomes violent. Crowdedness, peacefulness, or boredom are not reasons for the police to break up a demonstration.
• 35. Every accused person has the right to a speedy, public, and fair trial as guaranteed by the Constitution.
