Answer:

I chose tyranny, enmity, eloquence, benevolent, and disheartened.

Explanation:

The noun "tyranny" refers to the cruel or unjust use of power by a person. It comes from the noun <em>tyrannos</em>, which means master. <em>Tyrannos</em> originated the noun <em>tyrannia</em> in both Greek and Latin, and <em>tyranie</em> in Old French, which, on its turn, originated "tyranny" as we use it nowadays. The noun "enmity" refers to a feeling of rivalry or conflict. We can trace it back to Old French as <em>enemite</em>, to Vulgar Latin before that, <em>inimicitatem</em>, and to Latin <em>inimicitia</em> before that. The noun "eloquence" means "fluent or persuasive way to speak or write". It comes from the Latin word <em>eloquentia</em>. <em>Eloquentia</em> can be traced back to <em>eloqui</em>, which would be the combination of <em>ex</em>- (out) and -<em>loqui</em> (to speak).

The adjective "benevolent" refers to someone who intends to do what is good, someone who wishes well to others. It comes from the Old French word <em>benivolent</em>, which comes from Latin <em>benevolentem</em>. Finally, the adjective "disheartened" comes from the verb "dishearten", which means "discourage, deject, depress the spirits of". It was first recorded in the 1590s and results from the combination of dis- (the opposite of) and -hearten.

How does the scene between Whit and Slim, about Bill Tenner show the
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The scene between Whit and Slim, about Bill Tenner shows that they are ignorant and inexperience characters as they get distracted from the work they were about to do.

Explanation:

'Of Mice and Men' is a novella written by John Steinbeck. The novella is about two ranch workers - George and Lennie, set during the time of the Great Depression.

In Chapter 3 of the novella, Whit and Slim share a conversation about Bill Tenner. The conversation begin when Whit show Slim a letter published in Pulp Magazine, by Bill Tenner. Bill Tenner used to co-work with Whit in a ranch and seeing his letter published in Pulp Magazine is seen as a great achievement of Bill Tenner by Whit.

Yet, this scene reveals ignorance and inexperience of these characters as they got distracted from Candy's problem. Candy is about to get separated from his dog, who is old and has to been shot so that he didn't get hurt while dying. Carlson, Candy, and Slim were talking about this issue when Whit brings his own conversation in between, which clearly shows that these characters are ignorant and inexperience.
