Answer:

Jem says Tom's punishment is inappropriate, but he can't describe why. Maybe assault shouldn't be a capital offense. Atticus says he has no problem with the assault statute, but he has "serious reservations" when the state asks for the death penalty on circumstantial evidence. Before a person is executed, eyewitnesses should testify that they observed the crime. In the absence of that, there is always "the shadow of a doubt... the possibility, no matter how improbable, that he's innocent." Jem notes that the jury convicted a man on circumstantial evidence. He believes juries should be eliminated. Atticus offers a superior solution to Regulate. Only judges should decide death sentences.

Which best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt?
vova2212 [387]

I have found this question online, and it is about the short story "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," by Mark Twain. The excerpt is long for me to post here, but it begins with the story told by Simon Wheeler, one of the characters.

Answer:

The option that best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt is:

A. with the use of dialect.

Explanation:

When it comes to literature, dialect is related to how the author portrays the characters' speech. Many authors choose to write words with an uncommon spelling just to show that that is the way the character pronounces them. For instance, in books by Zora Neale Hurston, what should be "I" was spelled as "Ah" to emphasize pronunciation.

<u>The same happens in this short story by Mark Twain. The excerpt we are analyzing here uses dialect to reveal more about the character. For example, Wheeler says "feller" instead of "fellow". Twain wants readers to know that Wheeler is a simple man, in contrast with the narrator of the story who is an educated man and who uses a very different (formal) dialect from Wheeler.</u>

<span> <span>The author argues that race mixture “has not been a point of pride in America”, it is easier to talk about diversity that take an action on the subject. he says that America is a “mestizaje society” because of the influence of mexican, now called Hispanic. He sustains that this comparison between blacks and Hispanics is nonsense because there is no Hispanic race so to compare them is a “fallacious equation”</span></span>
