In Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird, the image of the mockingbird carries great symbolic weight. Based on the following excerp

t, what could the mockingbird symbolize?
Mockingbirds don't do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don't eat up people's gardens, don't nest in corncribs, they don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That's why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird.

A.)The mockingbird symbolizes the beauty of music because it gives immense pleasure to people through its melodious singing.
B.)The mockingbird symbolizes the softer side of nature, because unlike most wild creatures, it doesn’t harm human habitat.
C.)The mockingbird symbolizes life that should be preserved for the nonmaterial value it provides people through its singing.

Answer:

I'm not completely sure but I would say: C.) Unlike Michelangelo, few painters had the talent to also sculpt statues.

Puntuate the paragraph
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

"You are going near the post office?" Mrs. Reid asked her husband.

"Yes," he said. "Is there anything you want?"

"Could you get me a small registered envelope, please?" Mrs. Reid said, "I've got to send some money to my sister in Guyana."

"Ok," Mr. Reid said. "I'll get a Coulee. It may be useful to have a spare one available."

Explanation:

There are many ways that this paragraph could be punctuated. However, in my interpretation, I used commas to integrate my quotation marks, etc.

For example:

"Ok," Mr. Reid said. "I'll get a Coulee. It may be useful to have a spare one available."

I decided to add a period to the end of "said." However, you could choose to do it differently. For example, you could choose to write it like this:

"Ok," Mr. Reid said, "I'll get a Coulee. It may be useful to have a spare one available."  

(Notice how I replaced the period with a comma? That simply means that "Ok and "I'll get a Coulee" is all one sentence versus two sentences. Both versions are grammatically correct. The writer simply needs to choose which one s/he wants.)
