To Kill a Mockingbird:

English

Answer:

<em>To Kill A Mockingbird</em> is Harper Lee's coming-of-age novel about a black man being wrongfully accused of a crime, due to the racial inequality present in the fictional town of Maycomb.

The narrator of the novel is Jean Louise “Scout” Finch. Scout narrates the story as an adult, but tells it from her perspective as a child of six to nine years old. She is a perfect narrator for the story, as she now understands the events she experienced as a child, but tells us what they looked like through the eyes of an innocent girl. This is an example of dramatic irony, as we know something that the characters don't. An adult Scout gives us hints about what is going to happen and teaches us certain moral lessons that the main characters (as they are children) fail to understand.

The main event in the story is Tom Robinson's trial. Until her father was chosen to defend Tom, Scout knew nothing about the racial injustice in her society. After Tom has been convicted, Scout witnesses the prejudice and is no more as naive as before. Scout's perspective affects the readers' understanding of the whole story and makes the story's themes more deep. As Scout gradually matures and is able to understand what is happening around her, so does the reader become more aware of the extent of racial inequality. Scout learns certain moral lessons and rules from her father Atticus, but finds out that these rules are not always followed in real life. Unfortunately, an innocent man is convicted of crime, and dies as a result of it. He certainly did not deserve to die, but through Scout's example, we come to understand that life is not always as fair as we want it to be.

Which of these corrects the shift a voice in the following sentence
Blababa [14]
I think there is a shift at “...assured him”. From reading the beginning, you would think the person is under arrest, “stay where you are”. But, the sentence goes on to say that the police officer ‘assured’ him that. He could’ve been in danger, so the officer was telling him that help was on the way, just stay put.

Answer:

B. to lend impact to the sonnet's conclusion.

Explanation:

The lines present in the question were taken from Shakespeare's Sonnet 130. <u>The two lines at the end, or the final couplet, are structured in a different way from the others because their purpose is to lend impact to the sonnet's conclusion. Throughout the poem, the speaker is "criticizing" the woman he loves. </u>While Petrarchan sonnets were usually used to elevate women to an impossible status, comparing them to natural elements and concluding that they were always more beautiful, Shakespeare's Sonnet 130 does the opposite. The woman is a normal one, not more beautiful, sweeter, nor better smelling than anything else. <u>Still, at the final couplet, after all that criticism, the speaker says he loves her. Not only does he love her, but he won't lie about her. He loves her for who she really is.</u>

Which of the following sentences does not use slang or jargon?
Paladinen [302]

The sentence that does not use slang or jargon is:

  • After I arrived home from work, I plopped down on the couch and turned on the television.

<h3>What is slang?</h3>

Slangs are some kind of words that are used in informal situations. All the sentences above use slang and jargon, but sentence C does not use such informal language.

All the words used can be applied in formal language. Plopped in that instance means a clumsy way of sitting down. So option C is right.
