1.) characters get intorduced: this is important for the overal story and some of the struggles/hopes of the kids.
2.) T.J tells the kids about the man being burnt: the kids didnt know this because their mother wanted to protect them from that knowledge, but T.J's mouth runs like water, so he scared Little Man and Christopher John.
3.) Jeremy joins the kids on their walk to school even though he gets in trouble for it: this shows that unlike his family, who are racist to the core, jeremy is a good kid who just likes the Logan family, despite them being black.
4.) Cassie and Little man, who are sharing a classroom despite their grade differences, are given books that are worn out and dirty, and we see the pride in both little man and cassie, which plays a huge role throughout the book.
5.)Cassie goes to talk to her mother about her and little man getting a whipping because they didnt accept he books: their teacher, mrs.crocker, has already confronted the kids mother and their mom just takes the books and begins to fix them. covering the work "Nigra" with a piece of paper and some glue, she makes the books less offensive because she wants her kids to have an education.
6.) Both cassie and little man's pride prevented them from taking the books. this shows that even though it was really hard for african americans to get an education at that time, they were willing to risk it then be called offensive words and given dirty old books
REALLY HOPE THIS HELPSS!!!!!!!!!
Answer:
what meeting but participate in a meeting, you might be in charge of the meeting, be a speaker at the meeting, or volunteer to do something at the meeting. You would not just be attending, or listening to others, but in this case you would have something to do with the leadership of the meeting.
Explanation:
I would say the setting Hawthorn choose for his book to take place, this Puritan village
The most direct answer is C. Romeo: Draw, Benvolio; beat down their weapons. Gentlemen, for shame, forbear this outrage!.
This Quote is direct because Romeo is specifically stating that he has no wish for weapons to be drawn. and Romeo tells them That they should shame their fighting and providing another excuse for the Feud between the two families to continue.
A. Romeo: Tybalt, the reason that I have to love thee Doth much excuse the appertaining rage To such a greeting; villain am I none,
the first quote is a more indirect way of Romeo saying that Romeo desires peace. this is because Tybalt does not know that Romeo is married to Juliet and therefore wishes no ill to Juliet or her Family.
Romeo: I do protest I never injur’d thee, But love thee better than thou canst devise,
The second quote is also an indirect way of Romeo saying that he desires peace because he protests that he never injured Tybalt, and by extension any family of Juliet other than Mercutio.
hope this helps even though it is really, really late in being an answer.
