In "Great Expectations" by Charles Dickens the heavy slab in the story falls when the rope is cut by the sultan.

Pip refers to this metaphor of the heavy slab taken from "Tales of the Genii" to show how he is so much in love with Estella that he has even lost his life. He has no power on his heart.

Considering how the chapter ends with Jem wanting to keep Atticus's secret safe and then proclaiming he is just
Bond [772]

Answer: Jem's reaction illustrates his maturity, and implies that Jem has realized that his father is a brave and humble man.

Explanation:

In <em>Chapter 10,</em> Jem argues that Atticus is, unlike the rest of the parents, too old and boring. However, later on, when a mad dog is found down the street, Atticus shoots him. Scout, surprised by this event, does not understand why their father has kept his talent a secret.

Jem, on the other hand, is mature enough to understand that Atticus keeps quiet about his skills because he does not want to stand out from the rest of the people. Atticus does not think that his skills are something he should be proud of, nor does he think that demonstrating one's shooting skills will make one seem brave in front of other people. This is why he never shoots, unless he really has to. Jem is aware now that his father is a humble, yet courageous man.

"What makes you who you are?' is an age-old question that humans have pondered for
BigorU [14]

Hi. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for me to tell you how Blake would respond about what makes him what he is. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

Generally speaking, we can consider that what makes you who you are are your experiences. This is because experiences are able to mold and build very personal characteristics of human beings, building a personality and behavior that is intrinsic to each individual.

To answer how you think Blake would answer this question, you will have to read the text it refers to and try to define Blake's thoughts and personality on that question through the text.
