wasn't it something like whether people are truly rascist in their hearts and it was dangerous to ask because you might not want to know the answer or something? its been a while since i read that book...its one of my favorites though.

"To Kill A Mockingbird" by Harper Lee.\n\nIt's a classic tale depicting two forms of prejudice and demonstrating why prejudice is wrong and ofteb borne of ignorance. It's been taught in American and British schools for the last 30 years and is considered a modern classic.\n\nIt's also my favorite non-science-fiction book... EVER!

Benjamin Franklin:\n\n"Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."\n\nIt's one of my all-time favorite quotes!\n\n.

Sounds like one of those questions where they want you to list the answers in the book.  Why don't you try reading the chapter.  That will also help you do better on the test.  Don't ask us to do your homework for you.  Come here if you find the answer and don't understand it, and we will be glad to explain it to you.

1.point of view :Scout narrates in the first person, telling what she saw and heard at the time and augmenting this narration with thoughts and assesments of her experiences in retrospect. Although she is by no means an omniscient narrator, she has matured considerably over the  years and often implicitly and humorously comments on the naïveté she displayed in her thoughts and actions as a young girl. Scout mostly tells of her own thoughts but also devotes considerable time to recounting and analyzing Jem’s thoughts and actions.(taken from sparknotes.com)\n2.Maycomb county\n3.The town believes that a mad person named Boo Radley lived inside.People said he went out at night when the moon was high and peeped in windows....Any stealthy crimes commited in Maycomb were his work.And so on.You are right.it was due to gossips.\n4.They thought that he once, while cutting articles out of the newspaper for his scrapbook, plunged his pair of scissors into his father's leg.Jem also believes that Boo had died and was stuffed up the chimney.And so on...\n5.It is YOUR impression....I personally don't know.\n6.The way they talk,of course...\n\n7.championship?\n\n8.You never really understand a person until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.(consider things from their point of view.)\n9.Of course.But there should be more of his type of character today.\n\n10.He wouldn't.He asks them not to torment Boo Radley.\n\n11.She is trustworthy and does not gossip like the other women in town.She is honest and upright like Atticus.

To Kill A Mockingbird?  This is one of the best books ever written.  I seriously suggest reading it.

Because your school district and your teacher are to lazy to locate a book that pertains to issues of today and that children can relate to.  To kill a mocking bird is a excellent book, but for an adult, not a school age student. there are tons of books out their that are more "in touch" with today's society and that kids will actually learn from because they liked reading it.  Sorry you're stuck, maybe you can get some help with the homework on here.

Ask, 'Would the other soldier tell me this door leads to freedom?'\n\nIf the answer is yes, then it is the other door. If no, then that is the correct door.\n\nExplanation (sort of): say guard A, by door A (which leads to death), tells the truth and guard B lies; you ask A. B lies, so would tell you yes, A does lead to freedom. So guard A would truthfully tell you that B would say yes. Do you see the logic? I am not brilliant at explaining it, but trust me, it is right!

There is an obvious vilian in the story\nthere is horror especially  at the end of the book\nThe book has some dark moments a white women fasely accusing a black man of rape when actually it was her father\nI can't remember her name the lady who Scout read to it reminded me of Miss Havisham  in Great Expectations -Gothic novel\nto kill a mocking bird- Edgar Allen Poe the "Raven" another Gothic story there are some cahracteristics in both\nI think there are some supernatural events in the book particularly around  “Boo” Radley

Haha,I just did an essay on it.....\nBut,it's wrong to claim someone else's essay as your own,so I can't write it for you.\nI can give you some pointers,though.\n\nWell,you can write on Tom Robinson(in general), write about Francis's and Aunt Alexandra's reaction to Atticus taking the case,about Cecil Jacob's fight with Scout.You can write about the fact that Negroes and whites sit in different places in the courtroom.\n\nThe whole book is practically all about racism,so it won't be hard AT ALL to find quotes and evidence.Good luck :)

It is not very long and it is very interesting.\n\nhttp://www.sparknotes.com/lit/451/summary.html\n\nthe above is an online Sparknotes guide to the book which should help you to get to the important parts more easily. \n\nNow get to work!!

Yes.\n\nTo Kill a Mockingbird is a 1960 novel by Harper Lee, which won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1961. It was made into an Academy Award-winning motion picture starring Gregory Peck by director Robert Mulligan in 1962. A coming-of-age story, it is told from the point of view of Jean Louise "Scout" Finch, the young daughter of Atticus Finch, an educated lawyer in Maycomb, Alabama, a small town in the deep South of the United States. She is accompanied by her brother Jem and their mutual friend Dill.\n\nTruman Capote was a lifelong friend of childhood neighbor Lee, and allegedly was the inspiration for Dill's character in her best-seller. Capote frequently implied that he himself had written a considerable portion of her novel, and some have said he ghosted the entire novel. At least one person—Pearl Kazin Bell, an editor at Harper's— has gone on record as believing his assertions were true.\n\nThe title of the book is taken from Atticus's advice to his children about firing their air rifles at birds: "Shoot all the blue jays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird". The blue jay is a very common bird, and is often perceived as a bully and a pest, whereas mockingbirds do nothing but "sing their hearts out for us". Metaphorically, several of the book's characters can be seen as "mockingbirds", attacked despite doing nothing but good. The mockingbird represents innocence, and to kill one is to metaphorically kill innocence. Note that the protagonists are also named after birds: Tom Robinson and the Finch family. However, "Finch" was also Lee's mother's maiden name.\n\nHarper Lee stated, "To get the ideas for the book I used recent events in my time like the Scottsboro Trials." (Harper Lee, Book Review, 1964)\n\nThe events of this book's publication and the following film are also subjects of the 2005 film Capote starring Phillip Seymour Hoffman as Truman Capote and Catherine Keener as Harper Lee. It is also an excellent film and will likely be considered in one category or another for an Academy Award.

Excellent, tragic book.\nI loved it, but it was really intense.  I have not read it again, as I usually do with a good book.
