Answer: D.

Explanation: The statement that cites direct evidence from the passage to support its meaning MOST effectively is <u><em>Dunbar identifies strongly with a trapped animal: "I know what the caged bird feels, alas!"</em></u>. In "Sympathy", by Paul Laurence Dunbar, through this poem, the author states that he knows what the caged bird feels. His parents were former slaves and he knows what oppressed African-Americans felt. The caged bird is expressing those feelings, which are of profound sorrow.

Give three examples of how the author gives a sense of Jem's character in the first chapter. Discuss the author's use of verb mo
Zarrin [17]
Unlike Atticus and Calpurnia, Harper Lee does not give us a paragraph describing Jem. Instead we must learn about his character through his actions and speech. Sometimes Scout will use a descriptive sentence for her brother's character but mostly the reader learns about him as the story progresses. Many of Jem's statements in the first chapter are written in the imperative mood. For example, he says, "Don't blame me when he gouges your eyes out." By using the imperative mood, Harper Lee shows Jem to be older and seemingly the leader of Dill and Scout. The use of the indicative mood in Jem's dialogue also shows his stubbornness as a leader. When Dill is pressuring him into touching the house of Boo Radley, Jem says, "I'm going...don't hurry me." Even though Jem is worried about what may happen when he touches the house, he stays in control of the situation by using both the indicative and imperative mood in this sentence. Jem is also seen as the protector of Scout. When Jem is hesitant about making Boo Radley come out of the house because he fears for his life, Scout notes, "Besides, Jem had his little sister to think of." It is clear from this sentence, that Jem looks out for Scout which shows that he is a protective, responsible older brother.
