Hey there!
I chose the case of Marbury v. Madison
This case took place in 1803. It is considered one of the most - if not, the most - important Supreme Court cases, ever. It was the first time in history that the Supreme Court had proved that an act of Congress was unconstitutional - against the Constitution. This cased established an idea of judicial review - where the Supreme Court first got to decide whether a law that Congress was trying to pass was unconstitutional or okay.
Hope it helps and have a great day!

Explanation:
In Chinua Achebe's novel 'Things Fall Apart", the story revolves around the Igbo culture in Africa, specifically on the character of Okonkwo. The story deals with themes of culture, tradition, Christianity, conformity, etc.
In Chapter 3, we see that Okonkwo's father Unoka went to the Oracle to consult why his crops failed even though he made sacrifices. It was then that he was told his crops failed despite his sacrifices because he was lazy and had planted on a wasted land.
Okonkwo's prosperity was a result of his desire to be unlike his lazy father. He did not want to be deemed alike to his father and thus, went to the wealthy Nwakibie to ask for 400 yam seeds.
In Igbo culture, yam was considered to be the king of the crops. It was assumed that a man who can feed yam to his family the whole year is a man who has succeeded and is hardworking.
I'm assuming the underlined conjunctions are <em>both </em>and <em>and </em>(because you didn't underline any, and those are the only two conjunctions in the sentence).
Those conjunctions are called correlative conjunctions - this means that they are connecting two items which are equally important. So, this woman saw both Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald - and both of those artists are important to the woman.
