Make Benchmark Passages more interesting to Students

Hundreds of students around the nation struggle throughout the year when it comes to state test, benchmarks and so many other things. Students are struggling to pass classes and school because of a state mandated test. The least the state could do is help ease the stress and reduce the mental pressure and a way they could help is by making our state test shorter and making the passages more interesting towards students, I can almost guarantee that students will have a higher chance of passing classes and simply not falling asleep if we had more passages that we as students would like to read.
