Answer: This passage from Chapter 31 is Scout's exercise in thinking about the world from Boo Radley's perspective.
First off i wanna say outsiders is the best book i loved it.
here’s the answer :
the two boys know that they need to get out of town, so they go to dally for money and a gun and to plan about where they are going to hide, this was ironic because it is essentially the same thing that darry said to pony boy earlier in the book.
there were no child labors laws nor working unions the rights of employees were at the mercy of what was needed and inexistent. The industrial revolution was a very contaminated and polluted dark smoky dirty ashy and sick period of history. Another hardship especially for coal miners was the same thing we have now. implosion in short terms it is a combination of physical & emotional pollution that took over many lives.
~ hope this helps
Answer:
This aspect of ancient Greek culture is symbolized in the passage in the following way:
A. The Sirens appear enchanting, but they are lethal.
Explanation:
Ulysses, the Sirens, and Circe are all characters in the famous epic poem "The Odyssey" by Greek poet Homer. Ulysses, also called Odysseus, takes several years to finally go back home after the Trojan War. During his journey, he runs into monsters, witches, and enchanted creatures.
The Sirens are what we usually call mermaids. They are used in the passage as a symbol to represent the two different aspects of the sea: its beauty and its deadliness. The Sirens at first appear enchanting. They are beautiful and sing a most appealing song. However, they are lethal. Their song seems to hypnotize men and lure them to their death by drowning. The same can be said of the sea. It lures people with its immensity and beauty, but it also kills them.
I think the line 'Since he was old enough to know, big boy' is the best line in the excerpt that uses metonymy. This is because the phrase 'he was old enough' is just an expanded meaning of the phrase 'big boy' - which is what metonymy is all about.
