Question

compare the student text with the source.
source: meghan a. burke, \double consciousness.\ published in encyclopedia of race, ethnicity, and society, 2008.
in terms of opportunity, du bois writes about the world \beyond the veil,\ in which white americans experience no racial constraints on their lives and ability to make choices.
student text:
w.e.b. du boiss phrase \beyond the veil\ refers to the world of opportunities enjoyed by white americans, who never experience the limited set of opportunities with which black americans contend.
is the student text plagiarized?
no, it is not plagiarized.
yes, because it fails to use quotation marks.

Explanation:

Plagiarism involves using someone else's work or ideas without proper attribution or by copying too closely. The student text rephrases the source's idea about Du Bois' "beyond the veil" (referring to white Americans' unconstrained opportunities vs. Black Americans' limited ones) in their own words, not directly copying text. The "Yes" option's reasoning is wrong—quotation marks are for direct quotes, and the student paraphrased, not directly quoted. So the student text is not plagiarized.

Answer:

No, it is not plagiarized.
