This phrase is in reference to how Atticus dealt with Mayella on the stand during Tom Robinson's trial. Mayella testified that Tom Robinson raped her and beat her up. During his questioning, Atticus found holes in Mayella's story. He got her confused and made her sound as though she wasn't sure about the details or that she wasn't as strong of a person as she'd like to be. This made it difficult for Mayella to twist the truth to make Tom Robinson seem guilty so she stopped talking. She gave some testimony and then quit answering questions all together. Unfortunately, even though Atticus's questioning of Mayella revealed some significant inconsistencies and improbabilities the jury still convicted Tom Robinson because of his race.

Answer: The World Trade Center Towers fell on September

Explanation: Please don't simply copy and paste your questions; sometimes the formatting goes all wacko, like it did here. Also, double-check that ALL the information pertaining to the question is included; I'm not entirely sure that this answer is correct, due to the fact that there is no "line" to even read. :)

ROMEO AND JULIET
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

No, death of Mercutio does not seem to be justified.

Death of Mercutio can not be justified because his death was accidental.

Neither Tybalt's death seem to be justified.

Explanation:

Romeo and Juliet is a Romantic Tragedy written by William Shakespeare.

In Act 3, Scene 1, of the play, in a feud between Tybalt and Mercutio, Mercutio was killed accidentally by Tybalt. Tybalt and Mercutio entered the sword fight after Tybalt continues to instigate Romeo for fight and Mercutio, being hot-tempered, challenged Tybalt for the feud. To stop the fight, Romeo enters the feud and in this, Tybalt's sword escapes Romeo's arm and stabs Mercutio to death.

So, this shows that Mercutio does not seem to die and his death can not be justified as his death was an accident.

Death of Tybalt also does not seem to be justified as he was killed in anger by Romeo to avenge the death of his friend, Mercutio. After killing Tybalt, Romeo also seem to realize that he should not have killed Tybalt.
