English

Answer:

The statement on the part of Atticus that "Jem's definitions are very nearly accurate sometimes" is meant to set a playful tone because earlier Jem had said that entailment meant getting your tail stuck in a crack.  

Explanation:

The word entailment is significant in this part of the story because it means that Mr. Cunningham could not just sell his property to get cash and pay his debts. He might have a farm, but he does not have to right to sell it a large part of it and dispose of the money as he wishes.  Therefore Walter and his father are poor, and kind of "stuck in a crack" when it comes to affording to take a lunch to school like Miss Caroline expects.

Sav [38]

In "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?" by Joyce Carol Oates, Connie represents the many drastic changes America was experiencing. Connie, like many women in that time period, were dealing with the movement of women's sexual liberation, feeling undervalued at home with their family, and were questioning their role in society. Her fate represents the unknown, of not knowing what will become of women as they are taken away by this new social revolution, and how society may prey on how vunerable they are during the change.

shtirl [24]

Answer:

The children in the district are so poor and some of them so pathetic that I suppose the struggle to live has been so great you could not think much about what you fed the mind, but I came away feeling that right there, in one of the biggest and richest states in the country, we had a big area that needed books and needed libraries to help these schools in the education of the children, and, even more, to help the whole community to learn to live through their minds.
