Read the passage. And how come we think dogs are so smart? Sure a dog might be clever enough to fetch his leash when he wants to

go out. But the same mutt might also bark at a vacuum cleaner and spend a whole hour chasing his own tail. Is Rover really any brighter than a hamster, a chicken, or that kid who’s always eating Play-Doh? How can you measure an animal’s brain power? Which element of this passage tells you that the writer’s purpose is to give you information about animal intelligence? A) The writer explains what dogs can and cannot do. B) The writer argues that smaller animals, such as hamsters, aren’t necessarily dumb. C) The writer asks you question that she plans to answer in the text. D) The writer makes a joke about humans eating play- doh.

C is the choice I would make because I believe the writer is planning to answer this question: "and how come we think dogs are so smart". The writer never tells us what dogs can't do (a) or mention others being dumb (b) and doesn't make fun of humans (d)

What does Scout overhear Atticus and Aunt Alexandra talking in the living<br> room?
nataly862011 [7]

Hello. You forgot to report that this question was about "To Kill a Mockingbird". It is important that you always provide all the information necessary for your question to be answered, as you deserve.

Answer:

Scout overhears Atticus and Aunt Alexandra talking about whether Calpurnia needed to stay in the house.

Explanation:

Scout is a girl who although very young manages to understand very well the situations that happen around her. She lives with her brother, Jem; his father, Atticus; and a black maid named Calpurnia.

Calpurnia was primarily responsible for creating Scout (her mother died) and everyone in the family has a high regard for Calpurnia.

Meanwhile, Scout's family is visited by Aunt Alexandra, a very prejudiced woman who believes that Calpurnia should be fired and sent home, since she is black and, according to her thoughts, inferior and a bad influence.

One day Scout overhears his father and aunt Alexandra arguing in the living room. They are talking about whether it is necessary for Calpurnia to remain in the house, as Aunt Alexandra found it absurd that Calpurnia would take the children to a service in an African church, even with Atticus's permission.
