Hello. You forgot to report that this question was about "To Kill a Mockingbird". It is important that you always provide all the information necessary for your question to be answered, as you deserve.

Answer:

Scout overhears Atticus and Aunt Alexandra talking about whether Calpurnia needed to stay in the house.

Explanation:

Scout is a girl who although very young manages to understand very well the situations that happen around her. She lives with her brother, Jem; his father, Atticus; and a black maid named Calpurnia.

Calpurnia was primarily responsible for creating Scout (her mother died) and everyone in the family has a high regard for Calpurnia.

Meanwhile, Scout's family is visited by Aunt Alexandra, a very prejudiced woman who believes that Calpurnia should be fired and sent home, since she is black and, according to her thoughts, inferior and a bad influence.

One day Scout overhears his father and aunt Alexandra arguing in the living room. They are talking about whether it is necessary for Calpurnia to remain in the house, as Aunt Alexandra found it absurd that Calpurnia would take the children to a service in an African church, even with Atticus's permission.

What role does advertising play in the lives of youth
Helga [31]
Advertising create an unrealistic world for most youth. For girls its all of the photoshopped bodies and perfect teeth and heavy makeup. For boys it about all the trucks, car and sports that they'll be forced to play someday. Also for young women sports or engineering toys aren't very apparent in any advertisements which leads them to believe that they can't build, or play sports or throw a ball around.

Answer:

Appositive Phrase

Explanation:

Appositive Phrase

An appositive is a noun or a noun phrase that renames the noun next to it. It serves the purpose of adding information about another noun. For example, consider the phrase "The boy raced ahead to the finish line. " Adding an appositive noun phrase could result in "The boy, an avid sprinter, raced ahead to the finish line."

The sentence is still complete without the appositive. However, adding the appositive (an avid sprinter) presents more information about the other noun (boy).
