Answer:
Explanation:
n Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, the theme of appearance vs. reality is a prevalent one, and Boo is a perfect example of this theme—as is Tom Robinson, at least as far as the townspeople are concerned.
When Atticus decides to defend Tom Robinson for allegedly raping Mayella Ewell, the townspeople are angry. They anticipated that Tom would have a lawyer, but not one that would defend a man that most of them believe raped a white woman. Because Tom is black, he is guilty before he steps into the courtroom—as seen by the lynch mob that shows up at the jail while Atticus sits outside with a light, chair and newspaper. The mob has made up its mind that Tom is guilty, and they do not need a court trial to carry out the sentence they believe he should serve: to be hanged until dead.
"He in there, Mr. Finch?" a man said.
"He is," we heard Atticus answer, "and he's asleep. Don't wake him up."...
"You know what we want," another man said. "Get aside from the door, Mr. Finch."
Answer:
"Don't make me angry," Harry shouted, "or I'll really lose it!"
"You go look for Hagrid," said Hermoine.
Explanation:
In American English, these are the rules when it comes to the ways quotation marks and other punctuation marks are written:
- Commas and periods always go inside the quotation marks <em>("You go look for Hagrid</em><em>,</em><em>" said Hermoine.)</em>
- Dashes, colons, and semicolons almost always go outside the quotation marks.
- Question marks and exclamation marks sometimes go inside and sometimes stay outside.
When you're splitting a quotation in half, you should add a comma after the speaker to separate the speaker from the second part of the quote <em>("Don't make me angry</em><em>,</em><em>" Harry shouted</em><em>,</em><em> "or I'll really lose it!").</em>
