What is Lee’s intent by having Scout say: "…As for me, I knew nothing except what I gathered from Time magazine and reading ever

ything I could lay hands on at home, but as I inched sluggishly along the treadmill of the Maycomb County school system, I could not help receiving the impression that I was being cheated out of something. Out of what I knew not, yet I did not believe that twelve years of unrelieved boredom was exactly what the state had in mind for me."

Answer:

What Lee means is that Scout feels that school bores him.

As he says, he <em>“gathered from Time magazine and reading everything I could lay hands on at home”</em> which indicates that he was more advanced than his classmates, since <u>he had learned to read and write from an early age. </u>

Scout had high expectations before entering school, but once there, he realized that he would only spend the rest of the years in boredom.

Answer: C. Day in, day out, on the road.

Explanation:

The sentence that expresses the idea of a routine and repetitiveness is sentence C. As explained in the question itself, in 1915, people lived mundane lives and for them, all the days were practically the same - they would wake up, have breakfast, go to work, return home, sleep, and wake up only to do the same as the previous day. Kafka wanted to include this aspect of society in his Metamorphosis as well, in order to make it as truthful as possible.

According to MLA style guidelines, if the name of a work is cited in a parenthetical citation, it appears in___
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

A.) Italics  

B.) between quotation marks

Explanation:

The name of a work is cited in a parenthetical citation when the author is unknown. For a shorter work such as a poem or the title of an article, the name of the work should be between quotation marks. If it's a longer work such as the title of a book, it should be in italics. This is according to the most recent edition of the MLA style guidelines. If you can only choose one answer, then this question is flawed and should be reported as such.
