Reading the passage
Think back to the main point. Marshall developed innovative methods, and the test case strategy is one of the examples. I'd expect a word conveying that this was something new.
Working the answers
- A
Arbitrary means lacking a considered basis. His campaign was carefully planned.
- B
Inflexible conflicts with trying different approaches to discover what worked best.
- CCorrect
Unprecedented fits the presentation of the strategy as an innovation. The opening credits Marshall and the NAACP with developing new methods, and the ending describes a departure from accepted conventions.
- D
Necessary would mean this strategy had to be used. Explaining its success doesn't establish that no other approach could succeed.
- E
Subjective isn't the characterization developed here. The emphasis is on a new, carefully coordinated strategy.
