When Miss Maudie compares Jem to Uncle Jack, she does so because Scout tells her that he has been telling wild stories about Boo Radley. We then go on to find out that Uncle Jack is known for egging people (especially Miss Maudie) on. This implies that if Jem merely repeats the story of Boo Radley being dead and shoved into the chimney to get a rise out of Scout, perhaps he really believes that Boo may be alive, and responsible for leaving the items in the knothole, but can't admit it to Scout, for fear that it might take away from his storytelling.

Does society affect our body image?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Look below

Explanation:

Society affects our body image in a negative way as it promotes impossible beauty standards as an explanation for the way it wishes for society to look.  Celebrities and social media are the primary reasons why society affects self-esteem as people desperately try to reach unreal standards. The more we are on our phones, on technology, the more our adolescent development is affected by what we see on screens. Because society displays perfect images, adolescents suffer in terms of self-esteem.

Which piece of evidence best supports the theme that power can corrupt people? "lowliness is young ambition's ladder, / Whereto
____ [38]

Answer:

"Scorning the base degrees / By which he did ascend"

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's tragedy play "Julius Caesar" tells how the title character was murdered for the 'safety of Rome and its people' by people close to him. The conspirators included Brutus and Cassius, who felt that Rome is better off without the over ambitious Caesar.

The lines "Scorning the base/ By which he did ascend" best supports the theme that power can corrupt people. These lines were spoken by Brutus in Act II scene i of the play where he's shown debating between his dilemma of participating and supporting the murder plan of Caesar or not. By these words, he meant to imply that once people are ambitious, they will do anything to get their goal, even humbling themselves. But, once they get their goal, they turned their backs on those who helped them achieve and tries to gain higher ground while despising and scorning those behind his success. This greed blinded him and let him see only things for himself. Thus is the same case for Caesar. Brutus opines that even though Caesar may be a good leader now, but once he gains more power and become king will be bad for Rome. Thus, the decision to kill him.
