The correct answer is C. Oral history

Explanation:

Oral history refers to the preservation of stories, memories, among others that belong to a community through oral tradition or by transmitting the information from one generation to another. It is believed this type of communication was the main source and technique used by communities to preserve cultural elements especially before writing was developed or in the case of communities that did not develop writing as events, stories, myths and others could not be recorded through writing and this forced members of communities to remember all the information and teaching this to other generations to preserve it. Additionally, nowadays, oral history is also the name of the field that studies the way communities use oral tradition to transmit and preserve valuable information. Therefore, it was the oral history of the technique that was used to preserve stories about the past before the development of writing.

What is the conversation in chapter nine between scout and Atticus and what does it tell us about these two characters and what
Ivahew [28]
It's saying that Atticus is a respectable person who doesn't see race as a reason to or to not defend someone; he's not racist. It shows that racism in the south is common, and that because of that, Scout has grown up being taught to be racist. Atticus is trying to turn her away from that and get her to focus on the person's true self, not the color of their skin.

Why does hester feel that arthur dimmsdale should speak on her behalf?
stira [4]

In chapter 8 ofThe Scarlet Letterwe find Hester entering the governor's mansion because she has heard that the magistrates are thinking about removing Pearl from her custody, given that the child's illegitimate status renders her as a "demon child", or an "elfin", according to Puritan law.

As the magistrates speak to Hester, she begins to lose her temper and, after yelling out that she will not give up her daughter, she feels the sudden impulse to call on Rev. Dimmesdale to speak to the magistrates.

The reasons are many. If we go literally by what Hester says, then she wanted Dimmesdale to use his power as her pastor, and as the person whom she has trusted the secrets of her soul to convince the magistrates that she is not a bad woman, and that Pearl will not be led astray only because she is illegitimate; that Hester's scarlet letter has actually taught the woman much, especially about the care and love that she should place on Pearl.

Yet, if we read between the lines, we know that this impulse of getting Dimmesdale into the issue could have been motivated by other things. First, Hester was at a boiling point and perhaps, instinctively, she sought the help of none other than the father of her child, as the man of what would have been her family, to take charge of the situation and to help her.

Second, Hester may have subconsciously been so frustrated and "fed up" with the whole situation (and who wouldn't be) that she for once, and only for once, made Dimmesdale share the responsibility for some of it; after all, he fathered the child with Hester, even if it is all in secret. She was correct in including Dimmesdale into the situation, because the magistrates always listen to him, and because Dimmesdale has an undeserved charm over the community that he leads as a pastor.

Therefore, the combination of instinct, anger, and desperation is what mainly motivates Hester to call A<span>rthur Dimmesdale to speak on her behalf.</span>

briefly discuss how relationships evolved and how people learn new ways to be intimate with one another
torisob [31]

Relationships have evolved in many ways.

When baby boomers were teenagers, or in their early twenty's, sometimes they'd look in the news paper to find dates, and go out for coffee after talking on the phone. It was customary for men to pay, and be a "gentleman" by opening his dates car door, or pulling their chair out for them.

Now, in the age of millennial's and gen-z, dating is <em>very </em>different. Usually men and women will split the check, or take turns paying. They'll meet on dating apps, or online somehow.

Intimacy has also changed, as men and women are allowed to be more of themselves, than follow societal rules.Men can be more open about their emotions, and how they feel, while women are allowed to be more stoic, and more bold than they would've been even ten years ago.
