This phrase is in reference to how Atticus dealt with Mayella on the stand during Tom Robinson's trial. Mayella testified that Tom Robinson raped her and beat her up. During his questioning, Atticus found holes in Mayella's story. He got her confused and made her sound as though she wasn't sure about the details or that she wasn't as strong of a person as she'd like to be. This made it difficult for Mayella to twist the truth to make Tom Robinson seem guilty so she stopped talking. She gave some testimony and then quit answering questions all together. Unfortunately, even though Atticus's questioning of Mayella revealed some significant inconsistencies and improbabilities the jury still convicted Tom Robinson because of his race.
Hello. You forgot to warn that this question is about the "Invisible Man" prologue.
Answer:
The text shows details that prove that the narrator exists without being perceived by anyone around him, so he starts to push people to prove that he exists. These details help to convey the message that not being noticed is lonely and that it makes a person doubt his own ability and relevance in the world.
Explanation:
The narrator is an invisible man. This causes everyone in the world to ignore you. His existence is irrelevant to the universe and all people follow their lives as if he does not exist and he is not noticed by anyone, this makes everyone bump into him all the time.
This makes the speaker live an extremely lonely life and makes him start to doubt his own existence and to prove that he really exists he starts to push people back.
The main message of the text is to show how human beings need attention, to validate them, to show that they are relevant. When that attention is withdrawn, human beings can respond with hostility as a way to resolve their internal doubts.
In the story, The Last Leaf, Johnsy and Sue paint pictures together. Johnsy has been diagnosed with pneumonia and their visit to the doctor proves that she will die soon.
Explanation:
This story gradually moves from a very usual, routine life of two young girls to individuals, where one who want to fight for making an other feel better and worthy to live, while another seems to fail to understand what it actually is to fight the disease/illness.
Here, when Old Behrman paints a leaf outside for Johnsy, that is when she realizes that she must fight and defeat the illness, rather letting it defeat her.
Sue and Old Behrman's idea of making Johnsy realize what it takes to be alive, takes away Behrman's life at the end as he catches pneumonia too, because of the cold weather he was standing in while painting the leaf for Johnsy.
To give in to illness in the beginning but realizing how important it is to be resilient, is what we learn from this story.
