Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Brown v. Board of Education, written by Justice Warren.
ollegr [7]

Answer:

D. The real impact of racial segregation is emotional damage to minority students.

Explanation:

Brown v. Board of education refers to the US Supreme Court's decision from 1950s that separation of students of different color, although providing equal factors to their schools, as to the "white" schools, still is unconstitutional.

So, we basically have "white" schools and "black schools" in which cirricula, teacher salaries, buildings and all other factors are equalized.

However, the problem that remains is the need for separation of these schools. Doing so, creates emotional damage to minority students, who, in this situation feel like they are less valuable and deprived of contact and socializing with their peers.

So, all those equal "tangible" factors mentioned above don't contribute to true equality if the students need to be separated by race into different schools.

Which is the present tense verb in this sentence?    If I teach you French, you will see that I learned a lot when I lived in Pa
TiliK225 [7]
The present-tense verb in the sentence is "teach."
The reason for this is, while "will see," "learned," and "lived" are all verbs as well, "will see" is future-tense; as the word "will" implies that it hasn't happened yet and has yet to happen, while "learned" and "lived" are past-tense, as the "-ed" implies that it already has happened--as the speaker of the sentence has already lived in Paris (and perhaps does not any longer) and learned French while they lived there. "Teach" is implying that it is going to happen at this instance, as there is no "will" in front of it to imply future-tense, and no "-ed" at the end to imply past-tense.
I hope this helped !!
