Answer:

Atticus had promised me he would wear me out if he ever heard of me fighting any more; I was far too old and too big for such childish things, and the sooner I learned to hold in, the better off everybody would be. (9.1)

Is it just us, or is there a big dose of hypocrisy here? (1) Atticus doesn't want Scout fighting, but he promises to "wear her out," i.e. physically punish her in some way; (2) he wants her to keep it in, but he also wants her to be honest. Being a kid sure is confusing.

When a child asks you something, answer him, for goodness' sake. But don't make a production of it. Children are children, but they can spot an evasion quicker than adults, and evasion simply muddles 'em." (9.175)

Atticus recognizes that his kids are different from adults, but he respects his children—which means no lying to them or avoiding hard truths. Does this mean no Santa Claus for the Finch kids?

When we were small, Jem and I confined our activities to the southern neighborhood, but when I was well into the second grade at school and tormenting Boo Radley became passé, the business section of Maycomb drew us frequently up the street past the real property of Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose. It was impossible to go to town without passing her house unless we wished to walk a mile out of the way. Previous minor encounters with her left me with no desire for more, but Jem said I had to grow up some time. (11.1)

Growing up is great. You get your driver's license, a later curfew, and then you get to go off to college and eat pizza whenever you want. And then you start your first job, and you realize that you can't afford to eat out all the time and you can't skip your job if you're up late watching a Real Housewives marathon. Turn out, growing up means that you have to face unpleasant things instead of avoiding them—and you can't actually do what you want all the time.Explanation:

1.)  Select the correct inference of the given passage from "The Cask of Amontillado."    
iragen [17]
<span>This is foreshadowing that Fortunado will not leave the vaults (C). He has become nervous about Montressor's actions and has suggested that they leave, hoping that this is all a joke. But Montressor uses verbal irony to indicate that only he will be leaving, and Fortunado will remain entombed for the insults he supposedly dealt Montressor previous to the beginning of the narrative. The second question, though it doesn't have all the multiple choice options available, suggests that Montressor is trying to flatter Fortunado to pique his interests in going down to the catacombs, even during this festival. He is playing to Fortunado's ego as a wine connoisseur.</span>
