Answer:

B. Declare Definitively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Catherine Ross, in her interview with Supreme Court Landmark Series-- a radio interview series, talked about the Supreme Court's decision on 'Tinker v. Des Moines.'

In her interview she shed the light on Supreme Courts decision in favor of the Student's right to speech. She says that the Supreme Court's decision in Tinker v. Des Moines bore landmark because student's constitutional rights are not shed at the schoolgate. They have constitutional rights that schools can not force them to forsake when they enter the schoolgates.

The word 'enunciate' in her speech means to declare definitively. The word 'enunciate' is a verb which is derived from two Latin words 'ex' which means 'out' and 'nuntiare' which means 'announce.' So, the word means to announce clearly or definitively.

Thus the correct answer is option B.
