The correct answer is D. 7 - 4 - 6 - 4 - 6 - 6 - 5.
Just count the number of syllables: there are 7 in the first line, 4 in the second, 6 in the third, 4 in the fourth, 6 in the fifth, 6 in the sixth, and 5 in the seventh line. A syllable usually has only one vowel - if there are more than one vowel next to each other, that's called a diphth.ong and is counted as one syllable.

Answer:

The first funny/ironic fact about the Finch family's history that we learn in Chapter 13 is that the Finch family married within their own family for many generations.  

Another interesting fact that we (the readers) learn is that the Finches cousin Joshua attempted to shoot the president, and went to prison for many years.  

These examples are just two of many that imply the Finch children are, perhaps, not from the finest family lineage.

Highlight the word or phrase that makes the thesis statement wordy.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

I'm pretty sure the highlighted phrase should be "like fraternities and sororities" because it adds unnecessary details, possibly leaving out ones which are more important.
