Accepted Answer

### 6.
# Brief Explanations:
In the context, the students asked to be served, and the servers "refused" which led to the students waiting. "Refused" means not complying with a request. Option A "would not do something" aligns with this as the servers would not serve (do something - serving) the students. Option B (convince) is about persuasion, not relevant. Option C (embarrassed) is an emotion not indicated. Option D (do differently) is not about refusal.
# Answer:
A. would not do something

### 7.
# Brief Explanations:
The first part "marched peacefully" and the second part "white police officers attacked them anyway" show a contrast. "But" is a conjunction used for contrast. "Third" is an ordinal number (not relevant here). "Too" means also (not for contrast). "Like" is for similarity or example (not for contrast).
# Answer:
B. but

### 8.
# Brief Explanations:
(Assuming text context - photographers and TV cameramen likely recorded the events. Their recordings could expose the injustice of the attacks on peaceful protesters. This exposure could gain public sympathy and put pressure on authorities to address the civil - rights issues. For example, if the text mentions that their footage was shown on TV and made people aware of the brutality, it helped Black people in the protest as it brought attention to their cause.)
# Answer:
(Assuming text - based evidence: If the text says their recordings showed the violence, then) They recorded the events (like police attacks on peaceful protesters) and their footage could expose the injustice, gain public support, and put pressure on authorities to address civil - rights issues for Black people.

### 9.
# Brief Explanations:
(Assuming text context - after the Voting Rights Act was passed, John Lewis might have continued to work on related issues. For example, if the text says he continued to advocate for better implementation of the act, or worked on other aspects of civil rights like economic equality for Black people that are related to the broader goal of equality that the Voting Rights Act was part of.)
# Answer:
(Assuming text - based evidence: If the text says he worked on related civil - rights issues) He likely continued to advocate for the full realization of civil rights (e.g., better implementation of the Voting Rights Act, or related economic and social equality for Black people).

### 10.
# Brief Explanations:
(Assuming text context - if the text mentions him speaking at rallies, writing about civil rights, or using his position (e.g., as a leader in sit - ins) to voice the demands of Black people for equality. For example, if he gave speeches at sit - ins or marches, or wrote articles/books about the need for equality.)
# Answer:
(Assuming text - based evidence: If the text says he spoke at rallies) He used his voice by speaking at civil - rights rallies (e.g., sit - ins, marches) to demand equality for Black people, expressing their rights and the injustice they faced.
