Mayella has committed crimes against Tom and against the state (false accusation, lying under oath, even "murder" of an innocent

man) because she is ashamed of breaking a "code" and "tempting a Negro." What’s the difference between a law and a code
English

Answer:

A Law is a set of rules accepted by the country, whereas code is a standard accepted by an individual, society, or a class.

Explanation:

In "To Kill A Mockingbird," in chapter 20, Mayella breaks both "law" and "code."

She breaks law by giving false statement against Tom in the court. And she broke the code, by tempting a Negro.

She accused Tom, who is black, of ra-pe and on the other hand, she lu-sts after a black man. However, breaking of law is more powerful because it involves punishment whereas breaking of code does not.

Explanation of poetry pretty words
Monica [59]
Hello there if you are talking about "pretty words" by Elinor Wylie then.. I think the tone for the poem is admiring be cause when Wylie says "Words shy and dappled, deep eyed deer in herds" and, "I love words opalescent, cool and pearly", it shows her admiration for all sorts of words. When Wylie says in line 1 " poets make pets of pretty, docile words", she means that you can command words to do whatever you want if you know how to use em.

Theme: poets understand the uniqueness, weight, and beauty that words can hold and they know how to use them.

So pretty much here's a little summary: the speaker is comparing words to pets, and how they can be 'tamed'.

Hopefully that all helps!

Which central idea expresses a viewpoint?
dalvyx [7]
Hi there!

The answer would be D. Video games limit children’s physical activity and inhibit their natural ability to play and imagine.

All other choices are facts, and viewpoints aren’t necessarily facts, their just a way someone sees something or a certain situation. In the last statement it says how video games limit children’s physical activity which is against video games. Where the opposite of that sentence could be “video games help with hand-eye coordination”.

Hope this helps !
