Rewrite this paragraph without the figures of speech and idioms.
Elena L [17]

Answer:

One way to rewrite this paragraph without figures of speech and idioms would be:

"We had the greatest vacation ever! We went to a beautiful beach. The sand was extremely white. We lay in the shade of the blowing palm trees all afternoon, watching the butterflies and birds. In the evening, the ocean was incredibly clear. We could look right down into the water and see coral reefs and bright fish. When I told my friends about it, they were all very jealous! They all said they wished they could have gone!"

How do the three try to contact boo radley
Lisa [10]

to Kill a Mockingbird,"  Boo Radley, who has been a recluse for the last fifteen years, captures the imagination of the children. In Chapter 5, Jem and Dill attempt to send a message to Boo by tying it to a fishing pole, then casting it toward his window.  However, Atticus catches them and they are forbidden to go to the Radley place without being invited. But, in Chapter 6, on a dare Jem and Dill decide to peep into the Raley's house window.  When a shot rings out, Jem hastens to safety so quickly that he catches his pants upon the fence and must remove them.  Later, he bravely returns for his pants, which Boo has mended.  This episode alters Jem's perception of Boo Radley as the kindness of the bizarre captive of fifteen years touches Jem.

These episodes further the theme of maturation in Harper Lee's novel.  The Radley place affords the children a chance to prove their bravery.  And, when Atticus scolds them, they display character by not talking back to him.  Also, they begin to become concerned with people's feelings who are outside their immediate circle.
