Answer:

Explanation:

Atticus represents morality and reason in To Kill a Mockingbird. As a character, Atticus is even-handed throughout the story. He is one of the very few characters who never has to rethink his position on an issue.

His parenting style is quite unique in that he treats his children as adults, honestly answering any question they have. He uses all these instances as an opportunity to pass his values on to Scout and Jem. Scout says that "'Do you really think so?'  . . . was Atticus' dangerous question" because he delighted in helping people see a situation in a new light. Atticus uses this approach not only with his children, but with all of Maycomb. And yet, for all of his mature treatment of Jem and Scout, he patiently recognizes that they are children and that they will make childish mistakes and assumptions. Ironically, Atticus' one insecurity seems to be in the child-rearing department, and he often defends his ideas about raising children to those more experienced and more traditional.

His stern but fair attitude toward Jem and Scout reaches into the courtroom as well. He politely proves that Bob Ewell is a liar; he respectfully questions Mayella about her role in Tom's crisis. One of the things that his longtime friend Miss Maudie admires about him is that "'Atticus Finch is the same in his house as he is on the public streets.'" The only time he seriously lectures his children is on the evils of taking advantage of those less fortunate or less educated, a philosophy he carries into the animal world by his refusal to hunt. And although most of the town readily pins the label "trash" on other people, Atticus reserves that distinction for those people who unfairly exploit others.

Atticus believes in justice and the justice system. He doesn't like criminal law, yet he accepts the appointment to Tom Robinson's case. He knows before he begins that he's going to lose this case, but that doesn't stop him from giving Tom the strongest defense he possibly can. And, importantly, Atticus doesn't put so much effort into Tom's case because he's an African American, but because he is innocent. Atticus feels that the justice system should be color blind, and he defends Tom as an innocent man, not a man of color.

Atticus is the adult character least infected by prejudice in the novel. He has no problem with his children attending Calpurnia's church, or with a black woman essentially raising his children. He admonishes Scout not to use racial slurs, and is careful to always use the terms acceptable for his time and culture. He goes to Helen's home to tell her of Tom's death, which means a white man spending time in the black community. Other men in town would've sent a messenger and left it at that. His lack of prejudice doesn't apply only to other races, however. He is unaffected by Mrs. Dubose's caustic tongue, Miss Stephanie Crawford's catty gossip, and even Walter Cunningham's thinly veiled threat on his life. He doesn't retaliate when Bob Ewell spits in his face because he understands that he has wounded Ewell's pride — the only real possession this man has. Atticus accepts these people because he is an expert at "climb[ing] into [other people's] skin and walk[ing] around in it."

Read the negative position from "Animal Rights Debate.”
It is clear that humans are superior to animals, and therefore animals should not have the same rights as human beings. The Greek philosopher Aristotle argued that only humans have the ability to reason. Animals only have instincts to guide them. Therefore, they are not sentient, or thinking, beings like humans are. In addition, humans show their superiority to animals through control. Humans have superior abilities that allow them to raise animals for a variety of uses. Human beings are in control of animal life, making animal rights unnecessary.
Which statement best uses the ideas of the negative position to provide an affirmative rebuttal?
A.) Animals can show humanlike traits, such as cooperation and the use of tools.
B.) The purpose of animals is to be either consumed or used, regardless of whether they can reason with others.
C.) Even though humans can communicate their reasoning better than animals, animals like chimpanzees have shown that they reflect on their own thoughts.
D.) In the United States, several laws have been created to ensure that animals should be protected from animal cruelty, regardless of their ability to reason.

How does the author support the idea that the Fertile Crescent is the birthplace of

many cultural developments?

B. by listing the many great conquerors that ruled the region

C. by identifying the grains and cereals that were important in the region

D. by describing the relationship between people and God in Mesopotamian

Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler’s Guide to Elizabethan England.

Rich landowners do not normally sell their grain immediately after the harvest is in, when prices are low; instead they store it until the numerous small-scale producers have sold all theirs and prices go up again. Pig farmers keep their flitches of bacon back in storage until they can get a better price for them later in the winter. Such tactics are made even more profitable by the unhappy fact that harvests can fail, causing local—and sometimes national—food shortages.

What inference can be made about both rich landowners and pig farmers, based on this excerpt?

A. They often ran out of food supplies before the end of winter came.
B. They were the only food suppliers for Elizabethan England all year long.
C. They cared more about making a profit than charging fair prices.
D. They made little profit from the food they supplied to their communities.

Which statement best summarizes the writer's claim?
As California scrambles for ways to cope with its crippling
drought and the mandatory water restrictions imposed
last month by Gov. Jerry Brown, an array of ideas that
were long dismissed as too controversial, expensive or
unpleasant are getting a second look. One is to conserve
more water; another is to turn nearby and abundant
sources of water, like the Pacific Ocean, into drinking
water through desalination.
Yet another is to recycle the water Californians have
already used. And therein lies a marketing challenge that
can be even greater than the technological one.
Californians should not have to drink recycled
wastewater, even in a drought.
Governor Jerry Brown was right to impose water
restrictions on Californians.
California may have a hard time convincing residents
to drink recycled wastewater.
* There are various technologies that can supply
Californians with water during a drought.
