<span>Scout addresses Walter Cunningham by greeting him and starting a conversation then asking him to say hi to his son for her. By doing so, she relieves the tension in the situation by adding humility and compassion to the situation. Scout's innocence in the situation incites compassion from Mr Cunningham who is moved by her courteous behavior and the care she shows in connecting with him and acknowledging his family. Scout sees Mr Cunningham as a person while the racism of the mob members shrouds their humanity and essential goodness. Scout's polite address to Mr Cunningham allows him to recognize her essential goodness and he therefore responds in a civil and compassionate manner. Atticus later reflects on the situation by stating that "a gang of wild animals can be stopped, simply because they're still human.".</span>

Answer:I believe the answer is likewise

Explanation:

First, does not make sense, If you read the sentence and put the word's into the sentence it just doesn't make sense.

On the other hand. It could make sense, if the following actions weren't so similar. On the other hand would've worked if Ernest left Paris for America, because then the two wouldn't be ending up in the same place therefore concluding it not to be similar.

Likewise, to me, makes the most sense, because the passage implies that the two people end up in the same place which being Paris.

Please forgive me if I am wrong, I only mean to give advice to try and help. Thanks!

Which two details about sequoia trees are correct?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

A) They are some of the oldest living things on the planet.

B) They are a type of redwood tree.

Explanation:

The giant sequoia is one of the three species of redwoods. Redwoods belong to coniferous trees, which means that they have needle-like leaves that do not turn red, yellow, and orange in the fall nor fall off. Some of these trees are the oldest living beings on the planet (one of them is over 3500 years old). Despite the size of the tree (the tallest one is 311 feet tall), its roots do not reach deep, only 12 to 14 feet. The climate the giant sequoia is usually found in is humid, with dry summers and snowy winters.

Based on these facts, we can conclude that only statements A and B are correct.

2 Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth,
mash [69]

<u>The correct answer is D. The men who had just spoken before him. </u>  At the beginning of his speech he apologizes for not agreeing with most of the opinions expressed previously by some of those present. He asks them to fight for freedom since peace does not exist even though men shout peace! peace!. The expression "siren song or song" refers to the speech with pleasant and convincing words but that may hide some deception or seduction. Patrick with his words inspired the beginning of the American Revolution. He incites the struggle not to chains and to slavery.
