<span>Hurston’s use of the Big John de Conquer legend in the beginning of chapter 18 imply that
In southern black culture, folktale retellings were a source of comfort.
Even though Southern blacks were not taught to read or write, they are still learned. They learn through the stories they have heard since childhood and they impart their learning by sharing these stories to their brood. The stories that were orally narrated were a source of comfort as well as the bond of continuity of the families from generation to generation.</span><span>

A huge fine or sometimes as much as prison
The window spoke of the beyond
Outside the sky blushed with gentle lines of blue and pink
The leaves ride the winds and get ready for their flight
To fall from such height
They see as a sacrifice
To bid warmth goodbye.
Answer:
Because Algernon is missing out on the cognitive progress he has developed and the lab team doesn't want Charlie to believe it will happen to him either.
Explanation:
Algernon is the mouse that served as a guinea pig for the surgical procedure that allowed Charlie to overcome his mental disability. Like Charlie, Algernou greatly improved his cognitive ability, his independence and his ability to solve problems. However, this does not seem to be lasting, as Algernou is losing those skills and returning to his state of mental disability. For this reason, Charlie is not invited to see him, as he may believe that this will also happen to him.
