Answer:

Dan'l Webster is the frog that Smiley educates to jump higher, faster, and farther than any other frog. He beats all the competition until the day that the stranger fills him with a quail shot, immobilizing him.

Perhaps it’s a shorter way of writing Daniel or it enhances the way you’re actually supposed to pronounce Daniel. (instead of saying it as “dan-yul” it’s “dan-el”)

In Chapter 15 of To Kill a Mockingbird, what does it mean in Maycomb when grown men stand outside in the front of the yard?Also
Digiron [165]
Scout, in her mature naivete, states what it means quite succinctly:

In Maycomb, grown men stood outside in the front yard for only two reasons: death and politics. I wondered who had died. Jem and I went to the front door, but Atticus called, "Go back in the house."

The reflects the kind of small-town mentality exhibited throughout the story. Men only call you out into your yard to relay the news of a death, or to express support or disapproval for political candidates and causes. Scout doesn't understand the true nature of the mob appearing (although she will later in the chapter), so she asks "who had died." Atticus clearly does understand, as he orders his children back into the house.

Aunt Alexandra does not directly state her thoughts on Tom's innocence of guilt, but she does express her ideas about Atticus defending him. Scout relates that she heard the end of a conversation between Atticus and Aunt Alexandra, in which Atticus tells her that he's:

". . . in favor of Southern womanhood as much as anybody, but not for preserving polite fiction at the expense of human life," a pronouncement that made me suspect they had been fussing again.

I sought Jem and found him in his room, on the bed deep in thought. "Have they been at it?" I asked.

"Sort of. She won't let him alone about Tom Robinson. She almost said Atticus was disgracin' the family Scout.

Thus, it doesn't really matter to Aunt Alexandra whether or not Tom is innocent, or whether or not he gets a fair trial. All she cares about, as she proves time & time again, is the family name. To her, Atticus' defense of a black man is akin to disgrace for an old, established family like the Finches. Of course, she may truly think Tom deserves a fair trial, but she doesn't want her brother to be the one to ensure he gets it.

How does a postmodern play address gender roles differently than a modern play?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Postmodernism questions many of the traditional values that we hold in the modern world, so it makes sense for postmodernism to question the gender roles which are traditional in our society.

In context, which is the best version of the underlined portion of sentence 15 (reprinted below)?
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Vernon, where her husband is also buried.

Explanation:

The first answer makes it seem like she's still alive.

The second one is just confusing and incorrectly using the word what.

The Third one makes it seem like Vernon is the name of her husband.

The fourth one is correct cause it makes it seem like she died after her husband and he is buried there too.

The fifth one makes it seem like her husband died after her and she was already there.
