Social Studies

Lynna [10]4 years ago

Mr. Dolphus Raymond is known as the town drunk, because he always carries his drink in a brown paper bag, and tends to sway a bit in his walk. Mr. Raymond is also married to a black woman and has mixed children. When running from the courthouse, Dill and Scout run into Mr. Raymond and he offers Dill a sip of his drink. Scout is wary, but Mr. Raymond promises Dill it will make him feel better. Dill takes a sip and discovers Mr. Raymond is hiding a bottle of Coca-Cola in his infamous paper bag. Scout asks why he does such a thing, and Mr. Raymond explains he feels he has to give the population some reason for his odd behavior (being friendly toward black people). Mr. Raymond believes it's easier for people to handle strangeness when they have a reason to explain it. Thus, he pretends to be a drunkard.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

A person attempting to make a phone call while waiting for a meeting, is starting one task before another begins. So, it's not option B since multitasking is completing two or more tasks as once. It's not option C because sequential tasking, is beginning one task and not starting another in till that initial task is completed. It's not cleaving tasks or option D because cleaving tasks just means clinging to one task. Your best answer is option A or "combining tasks", since you are completing a phone call while waiting for your meeting. It means you are completing one task while waiting for another one to start.

Hope this helps.
