Which statement is written correctly?

2 answers:

B is wrong because of the word advertises - it needs to be advertise. C is not correct because of the lack of parallelism. If you have "to stay" and "to advertise" it must say "to raise". According to grammar rules, technically options A and D can both be correct because you can either put "to" before all verbs in the sentence or just after the first one.

In the last few lines of To Kill a Mockingbird Scout says, "he was real nice..." and Atticus replies, "most people are, Scout, w

Furkat [3]

Yes, most people in the novel were actually nice. It's just they were taught or trained to behave one way or another. Plus, we've got to remember, the story To Kill a Mockingbird, is told from the perspective of a small child. It's still clouded with youthful innocence. Even if it sort of deteriorates towards the end. Most of the people in the book weren't actually bad people. In fact, they were good. It's just the society they grew up in. They were trained to be racist and hate those that were different. In this novel, Boo Radley was the prime example. He was the town shut in. A bogey man of sorts. And he turned out to be very nice. Even aunt Alexandra is nice in her own way. She was trying to help scout. Scout just didn't see it. Atticus was raised differently. He was given an education. His parents didn't just see the blacks as slaves. He was raised to look for the best in people. He was raised by Calpurnia. He saw the truth. He's been through a lot. He really has. But he also believes in equality and it's that standard and the standard of his morals and moral fiber that allow him to see the best in people. The last part is a bit difficult. I don't really know you. But me personally? It is hard. I try to see the best in people. I really do. And at times it's easy. But if it was dealing with someone like in the book like the Ewell's, no. It's wry difficult for me.

The correct answer to what do Bixby's expressions suggest about his character is the last option: He has a natural, highly witty sense of humor.

When Bixby says things like "By the great Caesar's ghost" or "you don't know enough to pilot a cow down a lane", it becomes clear that he has a funny, comical and somehow inventive character. His expressions are jokes or puns that seem to be natural, they appear to be common or usual in his speech and to come intuitively. So, the correct answer to what the expressions suggest about Bixby's character is that he has a natural, highly witty sense of humor.

The correct answer couldn't be the first option, "He has a large and somewhat imposing personality" because there is nothing imposing about the comments Bixby does. He is, indeed, a little bit acid, but not at all imposing. On the contrary, he asks for Moses' help and says that he believes him. Therefore, the correct answer couldn't be "He has a large and somewhat imposing personality".

The correct answer couldn't be the second option, "He does not get along well with any other people", because there is nothing on his way of speaking which indicates that his jokes, puns or way of expressing himself are not well excepted by people. On the contrary, he seems to be acid, humorous, but also friendly. Thus, the correct answer couldn't be "He does not get along well with any other people".

The correct answer couldn't be the third option, "He is extremely well read and well educated" because Bixby shows no signs of that. On the contrary, when he speaks, his expressions are informal and conversational. So, the correct answer couldn't be "He is extremely well read and well educated".
