To kill a mockingbird what does the phrase hit her hard mean in the context

English

grin007 [14]2 years ago
8 0
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.

A story which ends with the statement:better late than never
FrozenT [24]

The above question wants to assess your writing ability and your imagination, for that reason I can't answer it for you, but I'll show you how to answer it.

First, you need to keep in mind that your story must end with the sentence "better late than never." This means that you should think of a story where something very important and expected by the characters took a while to happen, but it happened after a long wait.

After that, you should write your story in three parts, according to the following steps:

  • Start: Introduce the characters and setting where the story takes place.

  • Middle: Present the character's goals and desires and develop interactions between that character and others, as well as interactions with the setting. It's important that in this part of the story, you show what element this character is hoping to happen.

  • Final: Show how agonizing this wait is for the character, but how rewarding it is on the day that element finally happens. Show how happy and relieved the character feels.

luda_lava [24]

Answer: B. is the incorrect one!

Explanation: B uses the wrong version of “its.” It should be “Brad was certain that its (no apostrophe) roller coaster” instead. It’s = it is. Its = possessive of it. Hope this helps!
