Gem is convinced that Atticus will win the case because of all the evidence he has

There are several reasons why we might assume that Jem is convinced Atticus will win the case. The author is successful in conveying the deep admiration Jem has for Atticus. He aspires to be like him (including becoming a lawyer) and never wants to disappoint him. The fact that he admires Atticus so much makes him convinced of the fact that he is going to win.

Moreover, Jem has a strong sense of justice. He believes in the good of the world, and once he understands that the "just" outcome would be for Atticus to win, he is convinced this is what will happen. The realization that justice does not always work is one of his most significant transformations.

Finally, the author conveys the sense of despair that Jem feels when he hears the verdict. He is ready to get rid of juries altogether, and seems to never want to hear about the courthouse again. This shows that the outcome was an unexpected and very unpleasant surprise to him.

Answer:

1. The police are prepared in case there is a riot.

2. The poor are helped by government programs.

3. Sensitivity to other people's feelings makes Giorgio a kind person.

4. The news about the long-range effects of air pollution on the development of children's lungs is disturbing.

Explanation:

In the given sentences, the main thing to remember that will help us spot the error or chose the correct answer is to see the subject-verb agreement. This means that the number of the subject/noun is in sync or in agreement with the verb used with it.

The correct answers are as follows-

1. The police are prepared in case there is a riot.

Here, the noun "police" refers to the whole police as a group. So, it will take the plural verb form "are".

2. The poor are helped by government programs.

Here, the noun "poor" refers to the general population who are poor. So, the verb used will be "are".

3. Sensitivity to other people's feelings makes Giorgio a kind person.

Here, the subject is Giorgio, a singular noun. Thus, we will use the simple present form of the verb in the singular form "makes".

4. The news about the long-range effects of air pollution on the development of children's lungs is disturbing.

Here, the noun is "news" which is singular. So, the verb or helping verb "is" is used.

Passive voice in subordinate clauses

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

You can make the passive in a subordinate clause that has a subject and a normal conjugated verb. This is really the same as a normal passive. Active: I thought that Mary had kissed John. Passive: I thought that John had been kissed by Mary.
