Answer:

They are frightened of him.

Explanation:

According to a different source, this is the passage and the options that come with this question:

<em>Elizabeth turned slowly back into the room. Roy did not open his eyes, or move; but she knew that he was not sleeping; he wished to delay until the last possible moment any contact with his father. John put his newspaper and his notebook on the table and stood, leaning on the table, staring at her.</em>

<em>-They respect and admire him.</em>

<em>-They are worried about him. </em>

<em>-They do not care about him.</em>

<em>-They are frightened of him.</em>

In this text, we can see that Gabriel, the father, imposes a sense of authority among all the people who surround him. We can see that Elizabeth respects him, and that he intimidates her to some extent. We can also see that Roy did not want to interact with his father. All of these characteristics show that the family is scared of Gabriel.

Jem and Scout have different views about telling people at school how well Atticus can shoot. Explain this difference. Which vie
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Jem is dumbstruck with the accuracy of his father's shot. Miss Maudie tells the children that their father used to be known as "One-Shot Finch," the best dead-shot in the county. She says he doesn't shoot unless he has to, because he feels that when he holds a gun, God has given him an unfair advantage over living beings. Scout wants to tell everyone in school about the incident, but Jem tells her not to. Jem explains that he wouldn't care if Atticus "couldn't do a blessed thing," because Atticus is a gentleman.

Explanation:

After Atticus shoots and kills a rabid dog in one shot, both Jem and Scout are astonished at their father's marksmanship abilities and wonder why he never bragged about his talent. Miss Maudie explains to the children that Atticus is an extremely humble man with a civilized heart. Miss Maudie then tells Jem and Scout, "People in their right minds never take pride in their talents" (Lee, 102). Later that day, Scout mentions to Jem that she cannot wait to brag about her father's abilities at school, and Jem tells her to not say anything. Jem recognizes that his father is a gentleman and wishes to follow in his footsteps by behaving like a humble individual, which is why he encourages Scout to not brag about their father's talents. Personally, I would be able to control my pride and emotions by staying silent about my father's marksmanship abilities. Maycomb is a small town, and the word would rapidly spread about Atticus's expert marksmanship. <u>I feel that it is always better to hear about someone's talent and abilities from a secondhand source than listen to a person brag about their own talents.</u>
