Answer:
Anne in response to Mieps viewpoint of how peaceful and quiet the Annex was, compared the eight of them in the Annex to a 'patch of blue sky surrounded by menacing black clouds'.
Explanation:
When Mieps who brought essential items needed by people in the Annex, commented on how peaceful and quiet the Annex was, Anne who was already getting frustrated having stayed a year in the Annex lamented that the eight of them in the Annex were like a 'patch of blue sky surrounded by menacing black clouds'. The patch of blue sky represents the freedom they aspired for, while the menacing black clouds represents the impending danger, should they leave the annex.
Anne described the attackers as hovering before them 'like an impenetrable wall trying to crush them but not being able to'. She also compared the Annex to a ring, which she implored to 'open wide, and let them out'.
When Jem gives Miss Maudie his sympathies for the loss of her house, she says, "Always wanted a smaller house, Jem Finch. Gives me more yard. Just think, I’ll have more room for my azaleas now!"<span>
She tells Jem and Scout that she'll be able to have a bigger yard which means more room for the plants she loves to tend. She also calls her old house a cow barn and says that she had thought of burning it does herself.
Miss Maudie's reaction to her house being burnt down furthers her likable character. Her character is one of the mother figures for Scout and Jem since their mother is gone. Throughout the book, she is able to look on the bright side of things and is more accepting of others than most of Maycomb.
