A symbol for Aunt Alexandra in 'To Kill a Mockingbird' is her camellia flowers. The camellias symbolize her obsession with social class and appearances, as well as her desire to maintain the family's reputation in the community. Additionally, the delicate and fragile nature of the flowers reflects Aunt Alexandra's own vulnerability and insecurities beneath her tough exterior.

Bob Ewell targets anyone that insulted him at the trial. This includes Atticus Finch, as the top of his "hit list." His two other notable targets were Judge Taylor and Helen Robinson, Tom's wife. He failed in hurting either, and when he tried going after Atticus' children, he died at the hand of Boo Radley.

Jem tells Scout to keep it a secret that Atticus is the best shot in the county because Atticus doesn't like to boast about his skills, especially when it involves violence or using a gun. Atticus believes in humility and does not want to glorify his marksmanship abilities, especially to his children.

At the end of Chapter 4 in "To Kill a Mockingbird," Scout tells us that Boo Radley leaves small gifts for them in the knot-hole of a tree near the Radley house. This indicates that Boo Radley may not be the reclusive, scary figure that the children have imagined.

Aunt Alexandra tried to instill in the children a sense of responsibility, respect for their family heritage, and appropriate social behavior. She emphasized the importance of upholding the Finch family name and adhering to traditional gender roles and societal expectations.

In the novel "To Kill a Mockingbird," Dill feels ill at the end of the chapter because he is upset by the injustice of Tom Robinson's trial and the verdict. The emotional weight of the trial and witnessing the racism in the courtroom takes a toll on Dill, causing him to feel physically unwell.

Mr. Link Deas gets in trouble with Judge Taylor in "To Kill a Mockingbird" for interrupting the trial and accusing Bob Ewell of harassing Tom Robinson's widow, Helen. Deas is defending Helen's character and trying to bring attention to Ewell's actions, but his outburst is seen as disruptive.

Maycomb shows a mix of indifference and gossip at the news of Tom Robinson's death, demonstrating a lack of empathy towards his unjust fate. This reaction reflects the deeply ingrained racism and prejudice in the community, where the majority of people hold discriminatory beliefs against African Americans. The reaction is not surprising given the prevailing attitudes and social norms of the time, but it is nevertheless disheartening and condemnable.

Atticus described Hitler as a dictator who imposed his beliefs on others through fear and control. He emphasized the importance of resisting authoritarian leaders and standing up for justice and equality.

Atticus impresses Scout by displaying his courage and skill in shooting by shooting a mad dog with a single, accurate shot. Despite his reluctance to use a gun, Atticus demonstrates his marksmanship and a calm demeanor in a moment of crisis.

Dill (Charles Baker Harris) runs away from home in To Kill a Mockingbird.

The Ewells live in a dump near the town dump, reflecting their low social position in Maycomb county. They are the lowest class of white society and are looked down upon by other residents for their poverty, ignorance, and immoral behavior.

Scout was left the unpleasant task by the rest of her classmates to explain to the teacher that Walter Cunningham could not borrow any money for lunch because his family simply couldn't afford to repay that money. This explanation got Scout into trouble with the teacher as it was seen as rude. Ergo, Scout was angry and annoyed with Walter Cunningham.

Because he made her look bad on the first day of school, after she defended/explained his reason for rejecting the teacher's 25 cents.

Scout rubs Walter Cunninghams's nose in the dirt because he made her, "start off on the wrong foot." Ms. Caroline (Scout and Walter's first grade teacher, new to Maycomb) asked Walter why he had no lunch with him and was not riding the bus into town to get his own. He lied (if you recall, the Cunninghams were a poor farmworking family) and said he had left his money at home. Ms. Caroline, not knowing any better, offered him three quarters to go into town and buy a lunch. When Walter refused (fearing entailment) Scout piped up and explained how the Cunninghams were a poor family and never take anything from anybody that they can't pay back. Ms. Caroline thought this to be awfully offensive, slapped Scout on the palm and sent her to the corner until lunch time. Directly before leaving for lunch, was when Scout caught Walter outside and began to beat him up.

Miss Maudie is kind and respectful towards her students in To Kill a Mockingbird. She treats them with understanding and patience, encouraging them to learn and grow. The children value her wisdom and kindness, and regard her as a trusted adult figure in their lives.

There are many different reasons why he personally did not want to come out of his house. Many infer that the reason he did not want to see anyone else is that he didn't want to get into problems with anyone else and be a burden.

in my book page 37. it could be different in other books but it's in chapter 4

the reason that Jem's arm is messed up is because he sought to protect Scout when they were younger. Bob Ewell, father of Mayella, attacked the two one night, and Jem saved Scout but broke his arm in the process. Mayella had accused a black man of rape, and though it was physically impossible for him to have raped her, the all-white jury convicted him and he died trying to escape from prison. Though legally Mayella won, most of the town realized she and her family were white trash after the trial. Ewell felt this was the fault of Atticus Finch, Scout and Jem's dad, who defended Tom Robinson (the defendant) in the case, and Ewell drunkenly tried to attack his kids after the trial. Hence Jem's permanent injury. It foreshadows in the sense that that night, and that whole trial, changed Scout and Jem for the rest of their lives in a physical and emotional sense.

Mr. Holograve said that he spent several months in Barcelona during his travels.

The author describes the Maycomb jail as an old, run-down building with stucco walls, dim lighting, and a oppressive atmosphere. Its barred windows and lack of amenities highlight its bleak and unpleasant conditions.

"Ain't got no mother," was the answer, "and their paw's right contentious" (Lee page 32).

This is the beginning of the story when the children in Miss Caroline's class are trying to explain to her that Burris Ewell and the rest of the Ewells only come to school on the first day of the year. It is in chapter 3, and in the book I own, page 32.

Hope that helps!

Miss Maudie isn't upset about the fire because she knows that material possessions can be replaced, and she values the safety of her neighbors more than her house. She also sees it as an opportunity for the community to come together and show support for the Finch family.

Atticus is highlighting the importance of following one's own moral compass, even when it goes against popular opinion. He believes that a person's conscience should guide their actions and decisions, regardless of what others may think or say.
