Read the paragraph. Thurgood Marshall was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland. He attended Howard University, where he studie

d law. He served for years as influential legal counsel to the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People), acting as a champion of civil rights for African Americans. He is famous for winning the 1954 case Brown vs. The Board of Education of Topeka, in which it was ruled that racial segregation in schools was illegal. Marshall became the first African American to serve as a Supreme Court Justice. His remarkable achievements — as a lawyer, as a Supreme Court justice, and as a human being — were nothing short of extraordinary. What effect does the author's use of words with strong connotations have on the paragraph? It creates boredom. It creates curiosity. It conveys admiration. It conveys excitement.

It conveys admiration.

The author uses the words champion, winning, remarkable achievements, and extraordinary. They all have very strong connotations of success and positivity. This immediate eliminates option A. Option B is also not correct because they do not show curiosity. We also don't see true excitement. If the author wanted to convey a sense of excitement in the paragraph there should also be exclamation points. These words convey admiration for the person Thurgood Marshall was and his achievements.
