Which character was most likely sullen at the trial?
Bub Ewell
Jem
Judge Taylor
Dill
(to kill a mockingbird )

Answers

Answer:

B). Jem Finch

Explanation:

'To Kill A Mocking Bird' authored by Harper Lee explores the key idea of 'moral human nature and the coexistence of virtue and evil at the same time.'

As per the question, the character who was most likely to be 'sullen and gloomy' at the trial would be Jem finch as he is quite innocent and considers the world and all the people surrounding him to be naturally good but his ideals and beliefs are shaken by the cruelty and evil that he witnesses at the trial. The injustice and hatred that he encounters during the trial badly affects his ideals and eventually he gains an adult perspective of the world that not all people are naturally good and human. This shift makes his transition from childhood to adulthood. Thus, option B is the correct answer.

Question 7 (1 point) Read the passage. Then, answer the following question(s). (1) When I was little, Grandma always played with me. (2) She taught me how to dance, and she made beautiful clothes for my dolls. (3) She was my special friend, but I had no idea just how special until I was in ninth grade. (4) Since my family did not have much money. I knew I would never be able to buy a great dress for the school dance. (5) That did not stop me from dreaming, however. (6) Many nights, after I had finished my homework, I would sketch the "perfect" dress. (7) I kept all the sketches on my bedside table. (8) I guess I figured that was a good place to store impossible dreams. (9) One Monday, Mom and Grandma agreed that we should start shopping for my dress. (10) I dreaded shopping for it; I knew I would face a big disappointment when I found nothing close to my "perfect" dress. (11) Nevertheless, we decided that we would shop for my dress on Saturday. (12) That Friday night at dinner, Grandma seemed unusually cheerful as she asked, "What's cooking, Natalie?" (13) When I replied, "Not much," she sang out, like a happy little bird, "Oh, Natalie! I have a surprise." and reached under the table to pull out a huge, flat box. (14) When I opened it, I gasped and burst into tears. (15) Grandma had made my "perfect" dress! Based on the details in the passage and your own knowledge of human behavior, what inference can you make about why Grandma made Natalie's "perfect" dress? b Grandma wanted to make Natalle's dream come true.

Do you think that the Lock down during the corona virus pandemic was an essential measure in spite of the hardship it brought economically? What would you have done differently and why?

Answers

Answer:

Yes, it was an essential measure in spite of the hardships it had brought about.

Explanation:

Yes, it was an essential measure in spite of the hardships it had brought about because no vaccination or antiviral drug has been found to cure Corona virus yet. Scientists and doctors are still battling to find a cure and therefore, the governments around the world cannot risk people socializing.I would suggest governments to let young and healthy individuals to continue working while monitoring senior and older people as they are more susceptible to the virus. The economy cannot be halted for long as people need to earn and keep the income flow running. Many countries have been affected severely due to lockdown and many lives are at stake.Thus, I would suggest young and healthy people to resume working and earning.

One of the main contributing factors to the outbreak of the American Revolution was the problem of taxation without representation. Unlike the people living in various parts of England, American colonists did not have their own representatives in the British Parliament. This meant that the Parliament could essentially make any decision they chose in regards to the colonies without the consent of the colonists themselves. The Parliament naturally used this to their advantage, mainly by passing acts that increased taxes on many different goods the colonists had to import from England. Eventually, the colonists grew enraged over Parliament's abusive tactics and the ridiculously high taxes they imposed and the revolution was born. Which BESTS supports the claim that Parliament abused the colonies? A) England was in desperate need of funds to keep its sprawling empire intact. B) Many tax acts were later repealed to quell the colonists' growing discontent. C) Problems with the judicial system also contributed to the revolutionary movement. D) High taxes on tea were levied simply to pay for England's military expenses.

Answers

D. Because England decided to make colonists pay for taxes because of their debt due to the French and Indian War. Your welcome ;)
