it's harmful to not only individuals, but society as well. it is hard to combat because of how society works. If someone very influential says something ra cist, se xist etc on social media, that can teach many people to think saying things like that is okay. alienating someone from society is incredibly harmful, and it can influence others to do the same.
...Elaborate please? What story? If you tell me the name of the assignment I can probably get it for you.
Answer:
B. The weather was frigid in Minnesota; it wasn't warm at all.
Explanation:
An antonym is the opposite word or meaning of a given word. It gives the exact opposite or different meaning of what is implied by a word.
In the context of the word "frigid", the antonym will be "warm, hot, pleasant," etc. And among the given statements, sentence B uses the antonym context of the word "frigid". While the other three statements give the implication of the coldness of Minnesota, the second sentence uses the antonym "warm" to add a different aspect of the coldness of the place.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
Since you used the name Scout, I'm guessing this is about "To Kill a Mockingbird". Hopefully I'm correct, but here we go. Scout has a new teacher when she starts going to school again. Scout already knows how to read. Every night, she and Atticus had read books together, and he had therefore taught her to read. Now, in school, they were learning to read. Since Scout had already learnt, she didn't need help. The teacher, however, did not like this. (Sorry, I can't remember the teacher's name for the life of me!) The teacher told Scout to tell Atticus that they can't read together anymore. Scout is very obviously upset. She believes she should be able to read with Atticus because she is learning, after all. So, she dislikes the school's new approach to teaching. Hope this helps you!
