WRITE ANSWERS ON YOUR OWN PAPER FOR THE FOLLOWING:

1. Give a good explanation of what “entailment” is. Look on page 21, two paragraphs starting with, “Atticus said professional people…”

2. METAPHOR: In reading a good book or story, we are interesting in what happens, but it is equally interesting to observe HOW the story is written. Miss Maudie is called a ‘chameleon.’ Explain what a chameleon is, then how this applies to her. Look on page 42, the paragraph starting with, “Miss Maudie hated her house…”

3. EVALUATION THROUGH PREDICTION: Think about the two sticks of chewing gum that were put in the knothole of the tree. Write your answer after the question in the space below:

  1. Why do you think that the outer wrapper was taken off, and the tinfoil was left on?
  1. Why do you think that there were two pieces instead of just one?
  1. Why do you think that the person chose to put gum in the knot-hole instead of something else?

4. COMPARISON AND CONTRAST: The Cunninghams and the Ewells represent a JUXTAPOSITION (putting two things side by side) of “two kinds of poor.” Make lists of how they are similar and how they are different.
