Empathy is one of the most important themes that the novel <em>To Kill a Mockingbird</em> develops. This is developed in both the movie and the book.

One example of empathy in the movie is the way Atticus defends Tom Robinson. We can see that he is very passionate about what he is doing, and he is genuinely troubled by the fact that Tom Robinson is being unfairly accused. He is empathetic because he is able to put himself in other people's shoes. This is where his sense of justice comes from, and the reason why he agrees to defend Tom Robinson.

One example of empathy in the book is the conflict that Jem has with the verdict. He has slowly transformed throughout the movie. He went from being a child to being closer to an adult. This means that he is beginning to see the world as what it is, a complex place where things are rarely fair. Jem, therefore, struggles with the fact that he is empathetic towards other people, but is also deeply angered when others do not demonstrate that same quality.

Answer: It is the same in both the film and novel. In to kill a Mockingbird, Atticus shows empathy more than others. He also teaches his children how to show empathy. He often tells Jem and Scout to  "Put yourself in their shoes". Tom Robinson also had empathy and it caused him to be accused of raping Mayella Ewell.

Why does the author of passage 2 describe a student council meeting in the first paragraph? ​
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

skimming the passage, we’ll find “some critics” mentioned in the third sentence. Indeed, this sentence actually continues to advance Bigsby’s view mentioned in the previous sentence (that Hansberry’s work has “unintentional” irony” that the author seems to reject (stating that we should accept her irony as “deliberate social commentaries”). This third sentence continues to elaborate and broaden the critical view to other critics. The next sentence contains the words “for example,” so that must be the one, right?! Nope. This is the trap; the question specifically mentioned “examples” ad does this fourth sentence of the paragraph, but the “examples” need to refute this view, and the example in the fourth sentence is an example of the critical view the author disagreed with.

Explanation:

An important thing to keep in mind about the Reading Comprehension section of the GRE as we use PowerPrep online to study is that it is just that—reading comprehension. In other words, as difficult as it may seem, and it can be pretty tricky, the test makers will always give us all the information we need in the passage to answer the question. Select-in-passage questions, like number 8 on the second Verbal section of practice test 1, may look different than other questions, but they abide by the same rule.

Select-in-passage questions are unique to the GRE, but that shouldn’t scare us. In fact, a good thing about them is that we can approach each one the same way: we need to read the question carefully in order to find out what criteria our sentence needs to meet. Then, we need to search the passage for a sentence that fits that criteria—ok, admittedly this is sometimes more easily said than done, but we should keep in mind that our question may even give us extra clues as to where to look.
