English

Ira Lisetskai [31]3 years ago

Prior to seeing their father's skill as a marksman, both Jem and Scout shared the perception that their father was older and couldn't do much of anything other than read and work.  Jem especially was flabbergasted at Atticus's ability to kill the rabid dog in one shot, even though it was "a little to the right. . . .Always was."   Miss Maudie, who addressed Atticus immediately after this episode as "One-Shot Finch" was delighted to tell Jem and Scout that "Atticus Finch was the deadest shot in Maycomb County in his time. . . .Guess you'll change your tune now."  Like many children, Scout and Jem had never really given much thought to what their father's life might have been before they entered it, and the idea that he might have been young once was probably something new to consider; additionally, Atticus had never spoken of his talent in this particular area.

I hope i helped have a good easter!    :)

What did winston churchill mean by this?
kodGreya [7K]

He meant that if they failed then everything that the world has worked so hard for, to advance and become "smarter" than we once were would all be for nothing. We would enter a new Dark Age. The Dark Ages were an extraordinarily difficult period in the story of humanity. It is estimated that 100 million people died at the hands of war, poverty, and plague. But during this time new ideas and ideals were born and much of the groundwork was laid for the world we know today.

Read the following excerpt from Julia Ortiz Cofer’s poem "El Olvido."
Ksivusya [100]

Correct answer: Immigrants must remember and preserve their own native cultures.

<u>Judith</u> Ortiz Cofer was born in Puerto Rico. During her childhood her family traveled back and forth between the US and Puerto Rico.  Her father was in the military and was stationed in New Jersey.  When she was 15, her family permanently relocated to Georgia.  

Her poem, <em>El Ovido, </em>published in 1987, urges immigrants not to turn away from the heritage and culture they came from as they settle in a new place -- in this case, the United States.  Further in the poem, she says it is "dangerous to disdain the plaster saints  before which your mother kneels, praying with embarrassing fervor, that you survive in the place you have chosen to live."
