Answer:

C) Kerouac’s use of syntax gives his writing the natural ease and flow of informal conversation

Explanation:

"Dean had arrived the night before, the first time in New York, with his beautiful little sharp chick Marylou; they got off the Greyhound ..." This quotation exemplifies Kerouac’s use of  <em>conversational </em>syntax, which means that some words are omitted. He does not use all the words in the expression , <em>the first time in New York</em>. The reader assumes it refers to Dean and Marylou's first time in New York.  The use of colloquial words also gives the text a conversational tone: <em>sharp chick-  </em>smart woman<em>- . </em>Then , the writer, jumps onto another event ; he tells how these two persons arrived in New York: <em>they got off the Greyhound bus. </em>The reader has to reconstruct the whole idea. This could be :  Dean and Marylou arrived in New York for the first time. They had got by bus from Greyhound  and  got off at 50th Street.

What social norm of the time period is scout conflict regarding? What does the story suggest might be the reason for this ?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer and Explanation:

Hello. You forgot to mention that this question is about "To kill a mockingbird."

The social norm of the time that causes one of the conflicts to which Scout is related is the standard of behavior established for women. This is because Scout has a rough-and-tumble, tomboy behavior, which comes completely out of the sexist standards that women should follow in order to be accepted in society and to be well regarded, to be respected. History suggests how girls were stifled by these standards and how it impeded women's free thinking and positioning in society.
