What are 2 characteristics of Atticus Finch? Why?

Answers

1. Atticus is kind and fair. He is stern, but also very loving. He treats his children with respect and talks to them like they are adults. He answers all of their questions with honesty. He is always consistent, and doesn't waiver in his beliefs. Atticus is seen as the moral backbone in Maycomb. He fights for justice and teaches his children to do the same thing. 2.Atticus is a pleasantly complex character. He is a responsible and loving father, a man who concentrates on essences, not externals, a brave man, and a clear and ethical thinker. (Can you tell I approve of him?)

You can see these qualities throughout the book. He faces a rabid dog (brave, responsible). He sees Scout for who she is, not what the community thinks girls should be. He defends African Americans when the community says he should not, and so on.

Which of the following lines from the poem “to be of use” best conveys the connotation that hard work is associated with dignity and gratification?A) “they seem to become natives of that element,”
B) “I love people who harness themselves, an ox to a heavy cart,”
C) “The work of the world is common as mud.”
D) “Botched, it smears the hands, crumbles to dust.”

Answers

Answer:

B) “I love people who harness themselves, an ox to a heavy cart,”

Explanation:

Option B line comes from the second stanza of the "To Be of Use" poem by Marge Piercy, which goes like this:

I love people who harness themselves, an ox to a heavy cart,

who pull like water buffalo, with massive patience,

who strain in the mud and the muck to move things forward,

who do what has to be done, again and again.

In the line, the author compares hard-working people to an ox which it's an animal that have great resistance in doing arduous works, while showing gratification, dignity and that she is pleased with this kind of people by mentioning that she loved "people who harness themselves".
The lines from the poem “to be of use” that best conveys the connotation that hard work is associated with dignity and gratification is “I love people who harness themselves, an ox to a heavy cart,”. The answer is letter B.

Create a paraphrase of the following sentence from “The Cold Equations:” She stopped occasionally, as though trying to find the right words to tell them what she wanted them to know, then the pencil would resume its whispering to the paper.

Answers

Paraphrasing isn't that as simple as it might be. It might be just as easy as pie for some people, but some would have it as like walking into a park, a Jurassic Park that is.

In this presented problem, it would be accurate to paraphrase them to terms and words that would most likely represent a whole phrase or clause. This is one of the many basics of paraphrasing.

So for a paraphrase of the given sentence, the paraphrase would be: "As she was writing, she had moments of thoughts between words and sentences."

Or

"She was, stuck in an interval, thinking as she was writing them down"

Or

"Occasionally stopping while she is writing is her thing"

and so on.
