Okay, I just looked through one of my old essays that I wrote for the novel, and in it, I listed every issue addressed in the book.

Racism and discrimination is addressed in the book. An example of it is when Tom Robinson went to trial because he was accused of raping a white woman, simply because he was black.

That means A can't be the answer.

Here's a more subtle example of racism. Three blacks had to give up their seats so some children could watch the trial.

I don't recall anything mentioning prison reform in the book, so chances if B being the correct answer is high.

Education was mentioned through out the book. Education in Maycomb was backwards and contradictory, though education was not always based in school.

That means C can't be the answer.

Poverty was a big issue, and was mentioned throughout the book. The Great Depression hit everyone in Maycomb. There were extremely poor families, such as the Ewells and Cunninghams, and other hard working poor African American families.

That means the final answer would be B) Prison reform

Hope your assignment won't be too difficult for you. If you need any help, you can just ask me :)

The option that best describes the use of rhetorical elements in the passage is the following:

B. Loaded language appeals to the audience's emotions.

Loaded language is the use of words that have strong connotations with the purpose of evoking feelings and emotions in the audience.

The author of the passage we are analyzing here uses loaded language when discussing the use of pesticides and the adaption and evolution of insects.

Words such as "war", "violent crossfire", "deadlier", and "triumphant vindication" help depict a horrible image of destruction. It sounds as if the author is describing a battle rather than the use of pesticides.

The author's intention is precisely that: to associate war and pesticides. That way, she can evoke certain emotions in her audience.

No one likes war, killing, and death. Thus, if that is what pesticides mean, no one will like them either.
