The word <em>and</em> in the sentence is a conjunction. It links the words net and traps.

Further Explanation

  • Conjunctions join words, phrases, and clauses together. They serve as glue used to string words into more complex statements seamlessly.  
  • <em>Example: Popcorn and soda are my favorite snacks. </em>
  • Linking verbs are verbs that connect the subject to descriptions in the predicate. They are not action words that are typical of verbs. Linking verbs simply serve to connect a word to its description.
  • <em>Example: Jeny is simple. </em>
  • Prepositions are like conjunctions in that they serve as connectors. Prepositions, in particular, connect nouns or their pronouns with other parts of the sentence. They are usually placed in front of nouns and describe how something is done, what time it happened, and the position where it happened.
  • Example: Ria went to Jebel Ali for her interview.
  • Pronouns are words used to replace nouns in a sentence so they don't become too repetitive.  <em>Example: Michelle is an incredible musician. She records her music in her own room. </em>

"To Kill A Mockingbird"

Secrets are one of the central themes in the book, although they are not the most prominent theme, they are quite important, as the ending of the book relies heavily on an untrue fact and untrue story, or rather a secret, which determines the fate of one of the characters. This quote (above in your question) particularly mirrors the quote " You never really know a person until you consider things from his point of view...until you climb into his skin and walk around it." Boo Radley remains a secret from the beginning of the book until the end and this quote relates to him as Scout and Jem try to figure him out, since he is so mysterious, yet another one of the secrets present in the novel.
