Brown v. Board of Education — Quiz

Question 1 • English Language Arts 11

Read the excerpt from Brown v. Board of Education . In these days, it is doubtful that any child may reasonably be expected to succeed in life if he is denied the opportunity of an education. Why does the Supreme Court assert this fact?

Answer
A
to highlight the idea that a child’s potential can be measured
B
to illustrate the importance of high academic standards
C
to illustrate how desegregation will be implemented
D
to highlight the significance of equal access to education

Explanation

The Court is emphasizing that education is essential for a child’s future success. By saying a child is unlikely to succeed if denied an education, it underscores why all children must have equal access to educational opportunities. The statement is not about academic standards, measuring potential, or the practical details of desegregation.
