I need to do a To Kill A Mockingbird Argumentative Essay and the planning is going well but I need help in coming up with a counterclaim for it
My teacher gave me this : "Write an essay in which you argue whether or not it made sense for Atticus, based on his character, to have taken a stand to defend Tom Robinson?"
My claim in a nutshell is that it made sense for him to defend him, but I can't see why it wouldn't make sense
Will give brainlest answer and you'll get 20 points for answering as I'll appreciate it very much, it's the only thing I need to fully know how to do it

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

One of the reasons it wouldn't make sense is Atticus could have gotten hurt. When youre defending someone, theres always some sort of risk in the situation. So if he didnt have to, then it wouldn't make sense for him to get involved in something he wasnt a part of originally. Atticus could have his reputation tarnished or he could be attacked for standing up for him. Let me know if you need more help.

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes, it made sense for Atticus based on his character to take a stand to defend Tom Robinson, because Atticus knows that Tom didn't do anything to be imprisoned and is trying and willing to sacrifice time just to prove that Tom isn't guilty and should be released.

Which sentence in this excerpt from "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine proposes that the American colonies should be neutral in their
relationships with foreign nations?

I challenge the warmest advocate for reconciliation, to shew, a single advantage that this continent can reap, by being connected with Great
Britain. I repeat the challenge, not a single advantage is derived. Our corn will fetch its price in any market in Europe, and our imported goods
must be paid for, buy them where we will.
But the injuries and disadvantages we sustain by that connection, are without number; and our duty to mankind at large, as well as to ourselves,
instruct us to renounce the alliance: Because, any submission to or dependence on Great Britain, tends directly to involve this continent in
European wars and quarrels; and sets us at variance with nations, who would otherwise seek our friendship, and against whom, we have neither
anger nor complaint. As Europe is our market for trade, we ought to form no partial connection with any part of it. It is the true interest of
America to steer clear of European contentions, which she never can do, while by her dependence on Britain, she is made the make-weight in
the scale of British politics.
Europe is too thickly planted with kingdoms to be long at peace, and whenever a war breaks out between England and any foreign power, the
trade of America goes to ruin, BECAUSE OF HER CONNECTION WITH ENGLAND. The next war may not turn out like the last, and should it not
the advocates for reconciliation now, will be wishing for separation then, because, neutrality in that case, would be a safer convoy than a man of
war. Every thing that is right or natural pleads for separation. The blood of the slain, the weeping voice of nature cries, 'TIS TIME TO PART. Even
the distance at which the Almighty hath placed England and America, is a strong and natural proof, that the authority of the one, over the other,
was never the design of Heaven. The time likewise at which the continent was discovered, adds weight to the argument and the manner in
which it was peopled increases the force of it. The reformation was preceded by the discovery of America, as if the Almighty graciously meant to
open a sanctuary to the Persecuted in future years, when home should afford neither friendship nor safety.

Answers

Answer:

a goal, a prosess and support materials

Explanation:

For procedural writing, a goal, a process, and support materials are needed. Hence the correct answer is option C.

What is procedural writing?

Procedural writing is a type of writing that provides step-by-step instructions on how to complete a task or achieve a specific goal. It typically requires a clear understanding of the task or goal, a well-defined process, and support materials, such as diagrams, illustrations, or examples, to help the reader understand and follow the instructions.

While creative or imagined ideas, facts about a famous person or event, characters, pictures, and detailed descriptions may be useful in other types of writing, they are not typically necessary for procedural writing.

Therefore, for procedural writing, a goal, a process, and support materials are needed. Hence the correct answer is option C.

Excerpt 1: He is afraid to be Nikhil, someone he doesn’t know. Who doesn’t know him. His parents tell him that they each have two names, too, as do all their Bengali friends in America, and all their relatives in Calcutta. It’s a part of growing up, they tell him, part of being a Bengali.
Excerpt 2: It is nothing like the schooling Gogol’s parents have known, fountain pens and polished black shoes and notebooks and good names and sir or madam at a tender age. Here the only official ritual is pledging allegiance first thing in the morning to the American flag.

A. Gogol’s experience of growing up in an American culture conflicts with his parents’ experience of growing up in India.
B. Gogol’s desire to have two names like his parents conflicts with his parents’ desire for him to adopt American customs.
C. Gogol’s fear of attending American school conflicts with his parents’ excitement about the new experiences he will have.
D. Gogol’s wish to return to India where his relatives live conflicts with his parents’ wishes to start a new life in America.

Answers

Answer:

A. Gogol’s experience of growing up in an American culture conflicts with his parents’ experience of growing up in India.

Explanation:

In excerpt 1, we can see that Gogol is confused by the second, americanized name that he has been given, "Nikhil". This is related to his experience of growing up in an American culture that he still does not fully understand.

In excerpt 2, it is explained that his parents were educated in much different schools. His parents are surprised about many things of the American School system, like the high quality school supplies, or the fact that the students have to recite the pledge to allegiance every morning.

In conclusion, both Gogol and his parents share the feeling of confusion that is caused by the differences between Bengali culture and American culture.

A. Gogol’s experience of growing up in an American culture conflicts with his parents’ experience of growing up in India.

This question concerns Act 2 of the play "A Doll's House". I've found the options online. They are the following:

What evidence from the text supports the prediction that Helmer will learn the contents of the letter? Select three options.

Helmer knows that there is a piece of mail from Krogstad in the box.

Nora looks at her watch and tells herself she has 31 hours to live.

Helmer thinks that Nora is nervous and dismisses her pleas about the mail.

Mrs. Linde fails to find Krogstad so he can take back the piece of mail.

Nora expresses her intention of having a champagne banquet.

Answer:

The three correct options are:

A. Helmer knows that there is a piece of mail from Krogstad in the box.

C. Helmer thinks that Nora is nervous and dismisses her pleas about the mail.

D. Mrs. Linde fails to find Krogstad so he can take back the piece of mail.

Explanation:

Krogstad is blackmailing Nora. Krogstad works for Helmer, Nora's husband, but Helmer has decided to fire him. Since Krogstad knows about an illegal loan Nora has taken from the bank where they work, he is threatening to reveal that in case Nora does not convince her husband to give him his job back.

In Act 2, Nora is desperate because she knows there is a letter from Krogstad to her husband in the letter box, and so does Helmer. She pleads with him to not read any mail until after a party the next day, but Helmer thinks she is doing this out of nervousness and dismisses her pleas. To make matters worse, Nora's friend, Mrs. Linde, fails to contact Krogstad and ask him to retrieve the letter. All of that is evidence that support the prediction that Helmer will learn the contents of the letter.

Answer:

Little is to say to Floyd's friends and family in such a painful moment. However, I do believe that his death has had a powerful impact and them knowing that it might be able to change the world as we know it, could provide them some comfort.

Explanation:

The police violence against George Floyd is no different from any other African American experience with the police, and it saddens me that only because this case became filmed and viral online, is that people are now paying attention.

The protests feel like an eruption that could not be avoided, because impunity has gone too far, and people are rightfully angry. And the police brutality against those protesting is only one more proof of that rightfulness.  

I feel that at this point is time to listen to African Americans and make sure that governmental policies are applied to fix the inherent racism in our society, not only by the police but also in every microaggression we all reproduce in our everyday lives.

I´m scared that these events may not be enough, that eventually the media will stop focusing on this issue. It´s on every one of us to keep this conversation going, to make sure policies are changed, to vote for those who believe in equality, and to revise our own behaviors to ensure change happens.
