Addressed a Question in "To Kill a Mockingbird" How do the townspeople treat Atticus Finch?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

They respected him. To them, he was an intelligent, morally upright man who represents what a true Christian should be, unaffected by others' opinions.

Explanation:

In Harper Lee's novel "To Kill A Mockingbird", Atticus Finch epitomizes the true personification of what a man should be. He was respected by all, even his own children. He was a lawyer but still unswayed by the opinions of others. He has also been continuously elected in the state legislature, unopposed. This shows just how much respected and truthful he must have been in the community. The cartoon image of Atticus in the newspaper gives the perfect portrait of Atticus, "chained to the desk" with white girls trying to distract him. But he still remained focused only on his work. This shows how devoted he is to his work and a respected person.

But once the case of the black man Tom Robinson sexually assaulting Mayella Ewell, a white girl started, his image changed for the person. He took the role of the lawyer, defending Tom against the false accusation. This made the townspeople question his actions. For them, since Tom was black, he is guilty. The issue of racism is still prevalent during those times so they are still swayed by the popular belief that whatever the issue is involving a colored person, then he's guilty. They started saying things to not only Atticus but even the children. They couldn't understand why he was representing a black man, trying to prove the innocence of a black man in a white majority community.

But after the trial and verdict, the townspeople brought food for them. This is a symbol of showing their respect for the man trying his best to prove the innocence of a man, even though he fails. His work ethics and commitment to the cause of injustice, even if he ends up being hated, shows him as  a person of great character and respect.

Dramatic irony means that
kaheart [24]


Dramatic irony means that (B) the audience knows something the character and characters don't.

This style of writing was often used in Greek literature. Readers can interpret the significance of the characters actions and words, something that the character himself or herself cannot.

Read the passage.
8090 [49]

The correct answer would be C. Between classes, during lunch, and sometimes on the bus.

The passage clearly states that cell phones must be in their lockers or vehicles, so cell phones cannot be used during class. It also states that cell phone use is acceptable if it does not distract others or affect their punctuality.

Lastly, the passage states the cell phone use on the bus is determined by the bus driver, so you would be able to sometimes use your phone on the bus.

Hope this helps!

PLEASE ANSWER!!!! We form the perfect verb tense by adding a form of the helping verb (be, have, do) to the past participle. *
Stella [2.4K]

We form the perfect tenses by using the verb *to have* as an auxiliary verb and adding the past participle of the main verb. For example we form the present-perfect tense by using the present tense of have (has or have) and adding the past participle of the main verb.

Those helping verbs are named *auxiliary verbs* . And the common ones are to be, to have, and to do. They appear in the following forms:

To Be: am, is, are, was, were, being, been, will be

To Have: has, have, had, having, will have

To Do: does, do, did, will do
