she was only another lady in the neighborhood,
but a relatively benign presence.

$100 Question from Review
How is Scout different from her
classmates?
$100 Answer from Review
Scout already has more education than her
classmates. Her life is not as hard as those of
her classmates, and she has the luxury of
having a professional father who is
well-educated. She is interested in learning
where her classmates are more concerned with
helping their families survive and where their
next meal will come from.
$200 Question from Review
Why didn’t the Ewells have to go to school?
$200 Answer from Review
If the truant officer enforced the law, their dad
would probably go to jail. As bad as things
were for the Ewell children, they likely would
have been even worse off without their father.
Because their home life was so unusual, the
authorities bent the rules for them (such as
hunting out of season).
$300 Question from Review

$300 Answer from Review
She talks and acts like her black friends and
neighbors when she is with them, and she talks

What is courage according to Atticus?
$500 Answer from Review
There is a different kind of courage

a gun—courage is knowing you are
beat before you start but doing it
anyway because it is the right thing to do.

“Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but
make music for us to enjoy. They
don’t eat up people’s gardens, don’t
nest in corncribs, they don’t do one
thing but sing their hearts out for us.
That’s why it’s a sin to kill a
mockingbird.”
