Read the passage from the opinion of the court in brown v. board of education, written by justice warren.

an additional reason for the inconclusive nature of the amendment's history with respect to segregated schools is the status of public education at that time. in the south, the movement toward free common schools, supported by general taxation, had not yet taken hold. education of white children was largely in the hands of private groups. education of negroes was almost nonexistent, and practically all of the race were illiterate. in fact, any education of negroes was forbidden by law in some states. today, in contrast, many negroes have achieved outstanding success in the arts and sciences, as well as in the business and professional world. it is true that public school education at the time of the amendment had advanced further in the north, but the effect of the amendment on northern states was generally ignored in the congressional debates. even in the north, the conditions of public education did not approximate those existing today. the curriculum was usually rudimentary; ungraded schools were common in rural areas; the school term was but three months a year in many states, and compulsory school attendance was virtually unknown. as a consequence, it is not surprising that there should be so little in the history of the fourteenth amendment relating to its intended effect on public education.

the fourteenth amendment stresses that anyone born or naturalized in the united states is a citizen and cannot be deprived of their rights. which detail from the passage supports the court’s reason for not using previous rulings on effects of the fourteenth amendment to decide this case?

Read the two conclusions to cinderella. conclusion a: “this is not the true bride,” said he to the father; “have you no other daughters? ” then cinderella took her shoe off, and put on the golden slipper, and it fitted as if it had been made for her. and when he drew near the prince knew her, and said, “this is the right bride.” then he took cinderella on his horse and rode away. conclusion b: he obliged cinderella to sit down, and, putting the slipper to her little foot, he found it went on very easily, and fitted her as if it had been made of wax. the astonishment of her two sisters was great, but it was still greater when cinderella pulled out of her pocket the other slipper and put it on her foot. thereupon, in came her godmother, who, having touched cinderella's clothes with her wand, made them more magnificent than those she had worn before. and now her two sisters found her to be that beautiful lady they had seen at the ball. they threw themselves at her feet to beg pardon for all their ill treatment of her. cinderella took them up, and, as she embraced them, said that she forgave them with all her heart, and begged them to love her always. she was conducted to the young prince, dressed as she was. he thought her more charming than ever, and, a few days after, married her. cinderella, who was as good as she was beautiful, gave her two sisters a home in the palace, and that very same day married them to two great lords of the court. which conclusion to cinderella is stronger? why? conclusion a is stronger because it uses dialogue that readers understand the prince's feelings toward cinderella. conclusion b is stronger because it describes a surprising and positive resolution to the conflict between the characters. conclusion a is stronger because it contains an emotional moment in which cinderella learns something. conclusion b is stronger because it shows that all of the characters changed and got what they deserved.

"good afternoon. how are you today? ” when writing the next few lines of dialogue, dominique should be certain that the lines provide clues about what will happen later on in the narrative. contain made-up details that make the story more exciting. include everyday language that seems real and natural. use precise words that make both men sound educated.
