However, as time goes by, Jem realizes that the injustices of society must not interfere with what everyone believes and that there are good people in the world, like his father, for example.
One day Jem's sister is trying to kill a beetle and Jem stops her. He states that the beetle is not causing harm to it, that all living beings have a function and that it is the duty of the strongest beings to protect the weakest.

Lake Powell is a graveyard." </em>And the one phrase that best contributes to the author's sad tone is<em> "debris-choked",</em> which presents an image of a place that is dying, or on the verge of death.
