In Chapter 15 of To Kill a Mockingbird, Scout, Jem, and Dill venture downtown at night and find Atticus sitting in front of the jail. Unaware of their presence, Atticus is sitting in a chair and reading a newspaper. As the children begin to leave, a line of cars approaches and stops in front of the jail. Hiding near the hardware store, Scout, Jem, and Dill watch as the men exit the cars and approach Atticus. One of the men says, "He in there, Mr. Finch?" Atticus confirms that Tom Robinson is indeed inside but cautions them, "He's asleep. Don't wake him up." What follows is what Scout refers to as a "sickeningly comic aspect of an unfunny situation."
The men are there to participate in a violent and uncivilized act. However, while their goal is to lynch Tom, they are respectful of Atticus and do as he says by whispering when they speak. It is ironic that they plan to hurt Tom and may even hurt Atticus in the process; they speak to him respectfully and whisper out of obedience to him. They even refer to Atticus as "Mr. Finch." Though there is nothing funny about the events, Scout refers to the situation as "sickeningly comic." This is because the men are managing to be respectful while at the same time planning to do bodily harm.

I hope that helped :)

PLEASE ANSWER!!!! We form the perfect verb tense by adding a form of the helping verb (be, have, do) to the past participle. *
Stella [2.4K]

We form the perfect tenses by using the verb *to have* as an auxiliary verb and adding the past participle of the main verb. For example we form the present-perfect tense by using the present tense of have (has or have) and adding the past participle of the main verb.

Those helping verbs are named *auxiliary verbs* . And the common ones are to be, to have, and to do. They appear in the following forms:

To Be: am, is, are, was, were, being, been, will be

To Have: has, have, had, having, will have

To Do: does, do, did, will do

Why did the Protestant Separatists, or "Saints," decide to move to the New World?
Vesna [10]

Nearly 40 of these passengers were Protestant Separatists–they called themselves “Saints”–who hoped to establish a new church in the New World. Today, we often refer to the colonists who crossed the Atlantic on the Mayflower as “Pilgrims.”
