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.

Ead the sentence, and use synonym context clues to determine the definition of opprobrium. Although people tend to react to new
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The word opprobrium most likely means "criticism". A word that is a synonym for opprobrium is "disapproval".

Explanation:

Opprobrium means harsh criticism or, depending on the context, shame, discredit, dishonor.. Even if we did not know the word's meaning, we could conclude what it is by taking the whole sentence into consideration.

<u>The sentence talks of people reacting badly -disapproving- new regulations. Then, it claims that no other law has had such a bad reaction as the one for raising the driving age. We can assume opprobrium still refers to disapproving, to a reaction of criticism. As a matter of fact, the word opprobrium is being used as a fancy way to avoid the repetition of "disapproval" in the sentence. We can, therefore, safely say that opprobrium means "criticism" and that "disapproval" is its synonym.</u>
