Answer:

hello your question lacks the required text here is the text :

Read the excerpt from Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry.

"Now, there ain't no sense in going around being mad. You clear your head so you can think sensibly. Then I want you to think real hard on whether or not Lillian Jean's worth taking a stand about, but keep in mind that Lillian Jean probably won't be the last white person to treat you this way." He turned toward me so that he looked me full in the face, and the seriousness of his eyes startled me. He held my chin up with the wide flat of his hard hand. "This here's an important decision, Cassie, very important—I want you to understand that—but I think you can handle it. Now, you listen to me, and you listen good. This thing, if you make the wrong decision and Charlie Simms gets involved, then I get involved and there'll be trouble.”

Answer: Cassie's father thinks that Cassie should try to be friends with Lilian Jean to keep the peace.

Explanation:

From the excerpt the text talks about a situation between a white girl ( Lilian Jean ) and a girl of color ( Cassie) , it is pretty obvious from the text that Lilian Jean had treated Cassie badly based on race and Cassie is not happy about that and wants to vent her anger on Lilian Jean .

Cassie's father is therefore trying to get Cassie to be friends with Lilian Jean and forget about how she might have treated her in the past. so that the peace among'st the families will be maintained .

How do we know Rodion is poverty stricken? Why does it bother him the least to wear his shabby clothing outside?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Rodion is poverty stricken for the narrator tells us that he was in huge debt to his landlady, dressed shabbily and that he was 'crushed by poverty'.

He did not have a care about his looks for his heart was full of hatred and spiteful contempt for the outside world.

Explanation:

The character of Rodion is from Fyodor Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment". He is shown as a poor ex- law student in need of money who commits a crime t fund his educational purposes.

We can know Rodion is "<em>poverty stricken</em>" by the way the writer had written in the very first chapter of the book. The narrator states "<em>He was hopelessly in debt to his landlady</em>" and that "<em>He was crushed by poverty</em>". Such was his condition, which we again see in the later lines "<em>He was so badly dressed that even a man accustomed to shabbiness would have been ashamed to be seen in the street in such rags</em>".

He wasn't bothered at all to wear his shabby clothes outside as he has too much of contempt and spite for the outside world. The narrator tells us that he had "<em>accumulated bitterness and contempt in the young man’s heart,  that, in spite of all the fastidiousness of youth, he minded his rags least of all in the street</em>".
