The correct answer is a sequence of events. As the story progresses, each event brings the story closer to resolution.
Unlike Atticus and Calpurnia, Harper Lee does not give us a paragraph describing Jem. Instead we must learn about his character through his actions and speech. Sometimes Scout will use a descriptive sentence for her brother's character but mostly the reader learns about him as the story progresses. Many of Jem's statements in the first chapter are written in the imperative mood. For example, he says, "Don't blame me when he gouges your eyes out." By using the imperative mood, Harper Lee shows Jem to be older and seemingly the leader of Dill and Scout. The use of the indicative mood in Jem's dialogue also shows his stubbornness as a leader. When Dill is pressuring him into touching the house of Boo Radley, Jem says, "I'm going...don't hurry me." Even though Jem is worried about what may happen when he touches the house, he stays in control of the situation by using both the indicative and imperative mood in this sentence. Jem is also seen as the protector of Scout. When Jem is hesitant about making Boo Radley come out of the house because he fears for his life, Scout notes, "Besides, Jem had his little sister to think of." It is clear from this sentence, that Jem looks out for Scout which shows that he is a protective, responsible older brother.

The correct matches of the questions to the step in writing would be as follows:
A. What voice am I writing in?
This question would most likely be drafting. It is the step where the author would begin to develop the text, organizing the thoughts he wants to have.
B. Are my sentence boundaries identified correctly (no fragments or run-ons)?
This would be the editing step where you proofread the whole text looking at errors especially structural errors.
C. Have I kept voice and tense the same throughout?
This would represent the revising step where you make a run through to each sentence and see whether you are being consistent with the use of words.
D. What is my purpose?
This would be the planning step. The very first step in writing would planning on what to write and what you would like to convey to the readers.
E. What is my evidence (and where will I get it)?
This would be the pre-writing stage where you collect your sources for the subject you want to write.
Answer:
The apostrophe has three uses: 1) to form possessive nouns; 2) to show the omission of letters; and 3) to indicate plurals of letters, numbers, and symbols. Do not use apostrophes to form possessive pronouns (i.e. his/her computer) or noun plurals that are not possessives.
