"The original idea of schools, which I do not believe is yet abandoned as worthless or out of date, was that children had not ye

t reached the point of experience and wisdom which enabled them to teach all of their elders... but one may, I hope, be permitted to harbor the thought that taxpayers send children to school on the premise that, at their age, the need to learn, not teach." What is the reasoning in this argument?

What is the tone of this poem by William Blake?
mezya [45]

The tone in “The Tyger” by William Blake is mysterious. Throughout the entire poem, the narrator is asking about who it is that had created the tyger. He is mystified as to who it is that would dare to create such a creature. He goes further to ask, “Did he who made the Lamb make thee?” which causes the narrator to wonder if the same entity who made the peaceful lamb had made the ferocious tyger. The theme of this poem is creation. Creation is a very broad tone, as is the theme of this story. The narrator is constantly asking whom it is who created the tyger. This creator may also be the creator of many things, such as the lamb, or possibly even the creator of all things. Creation is the main theme of this poem due to the wonder of who created not only the tyger, but all things. A literary device can be found in line 17. It goes, “When the stars threw down their spears.” This is an example of personification, as stars are inanimate objects yet are given the human ability of throwing. It is also personification in that, since the stars threw their spears, it is implied that they were carrying spears, another human trait.

If you were on the jury during this trial and were asked to take notes on the evidence provided, what would you have documented
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

What I would have noted would be:

  • Mayella has a difficult life.
  • She hired Tom for a job and guaranteed to pay him a nickel.
  • Did Mayella really offer Tom money?
  • Tom raped her when she went to get his payment at home.

Explanation:

Mayella is a character from "To kill a mockingbird". In her testimony, she states that she hired Tom Robinsson, a black man, to beat an old man. She says that she would pay a nickel for the service and that he agreed, but when she went into the house to get the money, Tom followed and raped her. Mayella also claims that she leads a difficult life taking care of her brothers and father who has problems with drinking.

About this testimony, the jury can write down important information, about how Mayella has a complicated life, why she got in touch with Tom and how Tom managed to get into her house.
