The words 'former' and 'latter' refer to two different things.
Here, we're taking supporters and critics.
- 'former' refers to the first group/thing
- 'latter' refers to the second/last group/thing
So in this case, 'former' is referred to the supporters, and 'latter' is referred to the critics.
(ii) <em>The man gave us a choice between music and sports, I chose the </em><em>former</em><em>, while she chose the </em><em>latter. </em>

Scout is a bit wild and rambunctious. Calpurnia likes to keep order and is strict. She will punish Scout (like having her copy the Bible) when necessary.
But the main reason is that Calpurnia is not her mom. Her mom dies when she is young, and Calpurnia has to raise Scout.
