The following passage is NOT capitalized correctly. In the first sentence, the name Jim Hawkins and the book title Treasure Island are capitalized correctly. In the second sentence, the name of the pirate Long John Silver is correctly capitalized; however, the name hawkins is not. Hawkins is the name of the main character. It is classified as a proper noun and therefore, the first letter should be written in a capital letter.

What can we do to listen more effectively?
QveST [7]

Answer: I can’t think of a more important point in listening than to be quiet so you can hear what someone is saying. To question, in your own mind, “was that IS or IS NOT”? because of unnecessary interruptions by someone else talking or making too much noise can cause you to lose even more! While you are wondering, you cannot concentrate as well on what you hear if you are thinking about what you may already have missed! These things put you even further behind.

This may sound like a small point, but even someone smacking gum or some other unnecessary noises can interrupt the flow of the speaker, what they say, (or what you thought they said), and can cause you to not hear clearly, and miss an important point. It is far more effective for the listener, and the speaker, if quiet and absolute, focused attention is maintained. It is also simply good manners to not interrupt the others. If you do not want to learn, quietly leave.

In at least 250 words, discuss the symbolism of the mockingbird and how it relates to the major storylines in the novel.
Alexus [3.1K]

To Kill a Mockingbird has very little literal connection to the plot, but it carries a great deal of symbolic weight in the book. In this story of innocents destroyed by evil, the “mockingbird” comes to represent the idea of innocence. Thus, to kill a mockingbird is to destroy innocence. Throughout the book, a number of characters (Jem, Tom Robinson, Dill, Boo Radley, Mr. Raymond) can be identified as mockingbirds—innocents who have been injured or destroyed through contact with evil. This connection between the novel’s title and its main theme is made explicit several times in the novel: after Tom Robinson is shot, Mr. Underwood compares his death to “the senseless slaughter of songbirds,” and at the end of the book Scout thinks that hurting Boo Radley would be like “shootin’ a mockingbird.” Most important, Miss Maudie explains to Scout: “Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.” That Jem and Scout’s last name is Finch ( type of small bird) indicates that they are particularly vulnerable in the racist world of Maycomb, which often treats the fragile innocence of childhood harshly. Also an important symbol of the good that exists within people. btw to kill a mocking bird is a great book
