Thurgood Marshall was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland. He attended Howard University, where he studied 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 does the author's use of the word champion in the phrase champion of civil rights suggest to the reader?

that the author holds a very high opinion of Thurgood Marshall
that the author does not have an opinion of Thurgood Marshall
that the author holds an unbiased opinion of Thurgood Marshall
that the author wishes to omit his opinion of Thurgood Marshall

“Whereäs” as an alternative spelling of “whereas”
ra1l [238]
Yes, it seems to be an alternative, in some situations acceptable, but eccentric and not neutral spelling of this word. It accents the fact that "ea" here are two separate vowels rather than a diphthong: that is the function of the  trema (the two dots).

In practice it's not used much, because it's not really necessary: it does not distinguish it from any other word, and trema is not easy to find on English keyboards: so there is no need.

Your teacher has won a million dollars in the lottery. Write a five sentence paragraph advising what she should and/or shouldn't
Dovator [93]
Winning the lottery can tend to ruin many people’s life’s. So I would advice my teacher to be careful with the money and who she tells. Other than that I believe she should spoil herself as she deserves it. Or maybe make a fund for her child’s college. As long as my teacher is humble and careful she should spend her money however she wishes!
