Question: 216

6. In the ------ decision Plessy v. Ferguson, the Supreme Court established the false doctrine of "separate but equal," which legalized racial segregation for many decades until the Court finally corrected this grave injustice.

  • A. complicated
  • B. ignoble
  • C. isolated
  • D. opaque

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

B

False doctrine and injustice require ignoble (shameful) as the answer.

Even if you do not know the word ignoble, you can eliminate choices (A) and (C), as well as choice (D) if you know the word, because the correct answer must reflect false doctrine and injustice.
